OK, which solo do I get? I've got "F' and 'T" and just ordered "K". My name begins with M but i DON'T like the M words. I'm thinking "L" or maybe "S". What would YOU get?
I have 3 on order right now and hope they come in soon. I did T , I love the thanks verses and the flower is too cute, Y for all the " you " references and the L because I love doing Live, Laugh, Love
I'm going to order "t" because the stamps in it are soooo cute! I'm waiting until June so that I can take advantage of the June stamp set special -- it's a stitches set that looks really fun. I have the Hero Arts stitiches set but I have discovered that it is undersized for a regular card front and the zig-zag stitch is not designed to stamp in linked succession (the zig should zag at one end if that makes sense;) ). After studying CTMH zig-zag stitch stamp I can see that they designed it so the stitches would connect if stamped more than once.
Now that I have shamelessly hi-jacked the thread I'll slink back into the cyber shadows;) .....I DO love the look of the solos, they appear to be more versatile than the SU monogram stamps.

Now you have me curious about the stitching stamp for June. I am so trying not to like another stamp company, but I am too weak !
Um, those Alphabet solos look REALLY cute... but I've never bought a thing from CTMH - do you need to purchase acrylic blocks, too - or does the set come with one? I think it's so nice to include some other stamps with what is essentially a monogram.

I love them! I have really wanted to see a catalog from CTMH for awhile but do not want to buy a catalog. I hate spending money on them even thought I am a SU demo and am suppossed to sell them I do not. I find that giving them out brings more sales. So I found a demo and asked if I could come look at her catalog and place an order. I told her I did not want to buy a catlog but wanted to place an order. Well she said she only sold them so the answer was no. Well guess what I ordered nothing from her. Now you show me these awesome letters and I want some. Whats a girl to do? Should I just buy a catalog? How much are they?

Wow - I am sorry you were treated so poorly by a CTMH consultant
I sent you a pm about the catalogs

I think the CTMH cattys are like $4 - they have great ideas and it's always nice to have the catty's around...just like the SU! ones...something to always look at to make you spend more of your money. LOL! I spend enough $$$ on CTMH to get my catty's free. I can't believe the demo wouldn't let you come look at the catty and order. If your order was enough, she should just give it to you. Their cost per catty is less than SU! cost per catty...easier to part with...she could have at least taken a deposit and returned it when you returned the catty if you wanted to take it and look it over. Who knows, you may have decided to keep it after looking at it. Find another demo though - her refusing an order doesn't deserve her to make any sales off you.
The solos are ADORABLE!!! CTMH stamps are great - they have some sets that SU! doesn't have anything like, so I buy those. I decided a few years ago that I didn't care where a stamp was from, if I liked it, I was getting it - and lately I have been wanting clear stamps -LOVE WORDSWORTH stamps. I wish they'd come out with their WILD alphabet in clear acrylic - I think that alpha is retired, but I have it in unmounted rubber, love it and would probably use it more if it were clear. Anyways, I have been buying many different companie's stamps (clear mainly) and I ACTUALLY use them with my SU! stamps.
Now that I've hijacked the thread...I'm thinking if I just got one, it would be "S" - it has a lot of good words with it. Who said they were getting them all? Lucky you - not sure I can delve into that - didn't delve into the SU! monogram's...at least CTMH is cheaper AND you get other stamps with them...

That's too bad...The CTMH catty is AWESOME! I don't think I could stand not having one...
Yeah, I was waiting until June to make my CTMH order too...have to have that stitches set...always something to make you want to order...
LOL I couldn't wait!
I already have B, H, and S! H is for my last name...and Happy plus many, many more...B was for several reasons plus HB for happy birthday, of course. and then S, well...that one I had to have for Scrapbook, Stampin, and on and on...But I am quite sure b/f it is all said and done I will acquire all of them...I really need a C, E, R, T, oh and a K too...that will take care of all 8 of us! (grandson included):mrgreen:
I will be getting J (for both my son and I) and A (for my other 2 kids). Was thinking about the F for friends and family. I was also thinking of B for our last name.
I just recently bought the alphabet solo "F" and can't wait to use it!! I also am for sure getting the JUne SOM. The stitches are too darling to not get. I am hooked. I want it all!! I will post samples as soon as I make some. I'd love to see other peoples samples also.

I LOVE the stitches set and I am getting it for sure! We used it at my workshop and the LO was AWESOME!
Now, back to my OP...
"L", "S" or what?
Goodie, someone who's seen and used the stitches set! Are the stamps long enough to go across the front of a 5 1/2" card front? I never have any idea what size the stamps are going to be with CTMH -- 50% size picture is really confusing in their cattys, in my opinion!

Yes they are long enough for a 5 1/2" card front - I also had a fellow consultant demo brad and eyelet placement with the stiches set - they were perfect!
