Default Favorite current SU sets?

I have been out of stamping for a couple years but wanting to get back into it. What are your favorite current sets? I'm looking through the gallery and the catalog but nothing is striking me as 'must haves'.

For sentiments - curly cute and perfectly penned

Hello doily is a versatile one for backgrounds and focal points

The butterfly set matches the 2 punches and secret garden in the spring catalog is a good floral set stamps alone or with dies.

Fabulous Florets is still current, as far as I know, and is one I'd buy if I could. But SU isn't available here and the the prices on eBay are usually too high compared to the catalogue price, so I just keep on looking out for it. I've seen a lot of beautiful cards made with it.

I just assumed since SU was in the UK that Ireland would have it too. Wow, that stinks. Sorry.

Thanks for the input. I'm looking at examples of all of your suggestions in the gallery. What is the name of the butterfly set? PS...so far I really like the Serene Silhouttes and Lovely as a Tree.

Keep suggestions coming!

The butterfly set is called Papillon Potpourri. There is a coordinating punch for the large butterfly in the big catalog and a punch for the smaller butterfly has been introduced in the new Spring catalog.

If you'd like to see some more examples of these stamps, I have Pinterest Boards for many sets. You are welcome to take a look.

Ummmmmm all of them, lol! Seriously, most of my faves right now are from the Spring Occasions Catalog! I'm really loving Oh, Hello. It's cute and springy and works for all occasions! I also love the Madison Avenue SAB set so it's a great time to order because you can get SAB goodies for free!

You're most welcome! I started the boards for my online customers. Since I can't meet with them in person, I wanted to be able to help them with the stamps that they bought. So, when one of them buys a new stamp set, I create a board for ideas for them. I add all the things from my blog to the boards too! lol I'm just beginning a new board for scrapbooking layouts today cause a new customer scraps. Pinning is a good thing for me to do at night while watching TV with my DH
