Do you have a fav you DON'T own?
 

So tell me I'm not the only one...

There is this stamp set, I LOVE it. Every day I get up and look in it's gallery to see if there are new cards with it. I have almost ordered it tons of times. I just don't know that I'd USE it that much. My mom laughed at me and said I need to just buy it, who cares if I'll use it, you can't stalk a stamp set for a year and not get it.

Does anyone else have a special set they love but haven't bought?

Oh it's Ahoy, Matey in case you are curious as to what would make me so crazy. :)

And I AM going to get it, I decided when the new catty comes out I'll get it with my new stuff order. :)

I keep looking at Crab and Co. and just can't decide.

Hip Hop Hooray was the one that I had been looking at but now it is retiring, so I probably won't get it.

Mine would be *Simply Said*. I love it, but don't know if I should get it because I didn't get the matching background stamp that came with it in the Mini last Spring. I loved all the cards that are made with it . . . especially the ones with the matching background. I think that background was called Dots & Daisies. It's my most regretted non-purchase.

Voila!

But it's just too much money for a "niche" stamp.

Not right now, because I have just gotten Natural Beauty...finally... but I have no doubt I will be in that predicament again soon!

Do the Hula, On the Spot, and the spotty stamp set. I love all of these images and the good size they are, but since I started buying UM online, it's really hard to pay for wood blocks I don't need, sales tax (a lot of stores I buy from are out of state, so no tax), AND shipping on top of it all.

Oh oh oh .... I wanted Happy Harmony and Wonderful Words I & II, but thankfully I've just managed to get HH and WWII :)

Sooooooo my list ... bearing in mind that I have never seen a catty is:-

Wonderful Words I
Very Punny
The coffee one

They're the ones I desperately HAVE to HAVE ... I dream of em .... often !!!

Bubble Queen and Artfully Asian.

Both grabbed me when they first came out, but I don't think I'd ever use Bubble Queen, as much as I love it. But I WOULD use Artfully Asian...but for some reason, I keep talking myself out of it (and borrowing my friend's!).

I like Balmy Breezes, but I'm not buying it - there's too many other "necessary" ones I feel like I need to own...even though everything I see made with this set is gorgeous...

Mine is not an SU stamp. It is the Fancy Heart from Old Island Stamp Company. I LOVE this stamp, but already have 3 pages of hearts in my notebooks.

For me it's Petal Prints.

That is a very unique and cool heart, you may need it in spite of all your other hearts. :)

I recently got this set and LOVE it. :)

And also there hasn't been a new Ahoy, Matey card in 3 days! Come on people, I need more Ahoy, Matey! :(

I'm gonna go check Matey's map and see what's going on there.

That's funny. I have the same heart stamp on my wish list! And now looking at it again, I think it would go very nicely with all of the doodle stuff that's come out lately. May have to move it up the list!

I love everything I see done with Mixed Bouquet and also Roses in Winter and don't have EITHER of them! I might get one of them before they retire, tho...

For me its the Gnome sets. I don't know why, but they just speak to me! :D I will definitely be getting at least one of them now!

Yes, I have been following the Petal Prints set for ages and now that it is retiring I am finally ordering it! I'll just bet that that is what Stampin' Up banks on...people who have been following stamps sets will finally buy them when the stamps are threatened with extinction. LOL

Gerri

I have been stalking Doodle This and Doodle That. Maybe some day!

for me the problem with doodle this and doodle that is that I'd need BOTH! heehee.

Do the Hula...

LOVE the Palm Tree.
Want it BAD.

But I don't like a few of the other stamps at all and can't justify the price for 1 stamp!

I LOVE Artfully Asian, too! I will get that SOON. I also want Eat Cake.

Mine is also Petal Prints. And I just cant decide if I really need it or if I should wait until the new catty comes out, it might have something I want even more! Decisions!

It's A New Little Someone for me.... there's just something about that bunny! :) I keep telling myself that I don't need it... I have quite a few of "baby" sets - and NO kids! Go figure.:rolleyes:

I just like the hula girl and a couple of the others. Haha...perhaps we should buy and split it:)

That's so funny because I love that set too....I don't have an children and I don't even like pirates but it's so cute...I'm glad it's not retiring so I think about it more...lol...one of these days I'm just going to get it...there are so really cute cards in the gallery using this set! So you're not the only one..oh I'm also like that with "Eat Cake" and "Simply Said".

I meant to say so I CAN think about it more....errr typos...sorry

Mine would have to be Roses in Winter. It's so beautiful. I must say that I do own Ahoy Matey and totally recommend the purchase!! I will upload my son's invites and scrapbook pages soon. :-)

Mine is Fairyland, and I've been stalking it on ebay for more than a year. I also don't know if I would use it that often either, which is why I haven't bought it yet.

I'm a stalker for Doodle This and Doodle That. I have been waiting to see if doodling will be a short time trend or stay around a while. I'm hoping the new catty will have similar sets. Those enablers who own it, please keep posting your creations! Thanx!!!

Mine would be petal prints . I TOTALLY love all the cards that are made with it, but now that it is retiring I can bring myself to buy it. I f I had played with it first, I probably would have bought it :rolleyes:

For some reason, I just love Super Squirrel! It's just some crazy thing. I finally got it because it's retiring and no one I know has it to borrow.

I don't think I 'stalk' any other sets, but I love RIW, too.

:)

Best of cluck, love all the cards that have been made with it. I will most likely buy it before it retires.

Loving Hearts is mine. Every time I place an order, it starts off on the list and ends up getting bumped off.

WOW! I was going to say Petal Prints - but that is sure one gorgeous heart!!!!!!

Artfully Asian and Natural Beauty. So many beautiful cards made with these.

Yes, me too! I just can't commit to getting them!
Mine are:

Do The Hula - I don't live in Hawaii, although I am on a Tropical Island.


Office Acoutrements - Pricey, but looks so cool I think I would use it often!

I have fallen for Ahoy Matey. Such cute cards and my son is 3 so
I'm sure I'll use it, but haven't bought it yet.

I just recently got this set, and debated a lot on it since I don't have many boys to stamp for. BUT since I have it I am so glad I got it! I just finished making 27 ATC's for a swap and 2 cards (made with 2 of the ATC's). I will upload them in about a week. ;)
