I posted last night but didn't hear anyone's thoughts? I'm putting in an order tonight and am thinking about getting either Farm Fresh or Sun Ripened II. Does anyone have a favorite? Which one should I order? Help! Please!
Do you mean DD Fresh Fruit from the spring mini? I would pick Fresh Fruit over Sun Ripened II. But if you are actually asking about Farm Fresh, I would go with Sun Ripened II.

Really? Yeah, I was referring to Farm Fresh that is in the 2004-05 Idea Book. Hmmmm...I just don't know. Really, I probably don't need either! I have so many stamp sets already. (I can't believe I am saying that) But I am leaning towards Sun Ripened II. Thanks for your input. I really appreciate it!
I like them both, but have Sun Ripened II. I would look at what kind of cards do you make. What is your style? Farm Fresh is much more cutesy and and Sun Ripened leans towards more classy and sophisticated cards. I hope that makes sense like it does in my head!
that was my mom's exact response! decisions i tell ya! geesh! as a demo, i am just sorta worried that one or both of these sets will be retired and then i won't be able to demonstrate them. any thoughts?
I have both and use SR2 more often. I really like the vintage look stamps for my scrapbooking and when my SIL and I stamp that is what we use and tend to collect for personal use. However, other customers/friends make more cards and like the SR2 for that.
I would choose Sun-Ripened II, but that is really a personal opinion for you. SR is much more traditional and FF is more country. Think about which one you would use the most and the one that is more versatile for your tastes.
Just a thought...

Follow your heart, get which ever one you love or feel that you could demonstrate well. I would hold off on getting both until the retired list comes out if a few months then if whichever one you didn't get if you still want get it then, you'll be able to demo it for at least another year!
Farm Fresh, they should really have more samples of it in the caddy. I have this set and love it and everytime I make a card with it, someone always buys it. I
I love the look of Farm Fresh but I think the sayings on them are just goofy. They look like old seed packets to me and I think they would have such a cool vintage look if they didn't have the silly words on them. Just my 2 cents. I really like everything else about this set and if the sayings don't bother you, this would be my choice. SR II is very classy and fruit really never goes out of style.

I really like Farm Fresh! I've made lots of different cards with it. I love to use either Perfect Plaids (ret) or Simple Stripes as a BG. I bet it would look great with the new Canvas BG! I REALLY wish I had the Chicken Wire BG to go with it.
i saw someone's gallery and they had used an old newspaper as a BG and it looked so AWESOME!
I have SR1 and have never used it. I like that one and SR2, but I would go for Farm Fresh ( I don't have it). You can use it to make cards that are not so serious, but then again, I like to make cards that are on the less serious side.
While I really like the style of Farm Fresh (looks like vintage seed packets to me), I find the sayings on them to be a bit silly for my taste. That would be my reasoning for going with SR II. If the sayings don't bother you, I think Farm Fresh is a great set.
