Which Level I Hostess Set Should I Get?
My sister just called me and said she is placing a little order tonight and I can have the Hostess Benefits if I want them, well duh!
So that's basically it, which one should I get?
I have Riveting (hate it).
Thanks!!
(I am leaning towards Blooming w/Happiness or the Simply Scrappin kit, I don't scrap and I have never used stickers and I think I see stickers in the kit but I can't really tell...)
There are so many cool ones to choose from! My top three are:
Reason To Smile
Friends and Flowers Scrappin Kit (I've heard rave reviews of this!)
Tags So Much
My first level 1 was warmest regards
My second was blooming with happiness
My thirds were Reason to Smile and Tags So much
My next will be The Simply Scrapping Set
I went with Blooming With Happiness after looking at the galleries of all of the hostess sets. I wasn't crazy about any of the sets until I saw this card by LodiChick using Blooming With Happiness: Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
I got the rivetting and think its very versatile. Too bad its not your thing. Anyhow, I think you would get the most use out of 'Warmest Regards'. That would be my next one.

okay first of all you MUST get that tag punch - I use it almost everyday! But since you don't have it yet, I picked the world over... I just love that set!

I had the tag punch but I sold it on ebay right before the new catty came out with it in it and I got so much for it that I actually felt bad.
But I never used it so it just sat there all sad and lonely. I have the designer label punch box and it is doing the same thing, poor punch box.
I want all of these sets you all are suggesting!
I started looking through the gallery of each one and now I am more confused that I was, and the pressure to decide in the next 4 hours is too much!
Jimmi, The scrappin' kit is awesome! There have been many cards uploaded that use it, go to the special gallery for them to view them! I just made 62 cards with the paper, cs and stickers from last year's hostess set and I love them! They look great and were so quick and easy to make, I can't wait to get this set so I can make some cards with it!
My second choice is Warmest Regards, I love the font and small size of the greetings, plus I really need a sympathy stamp!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the scrappin' kit, and plan to *try* to stock up on a couple of them this year.
I like the font of the word set, but I already have plenty of sets with those same words in it, so that dropped my interest in that set. However if you don't have an abundance of those sayings/words then that would be my second vote.

Anyone else??? I have until the morning since no one ordered anything from the Summer Mini, she held off on the order until then, yeah, but what if I need more Petal Patch paper?? :confused:
So far Warmest Regards is running away with the race!
I voted for Warmest Regards. I got that one first, although I am waiting not-so-patiently for the scrappin' kit. I have already used Warmest Regards more times than I can count.
Yesterday I had to let my sister, my demo, know which level one I wanted as it was my turn to be hostess at our stampin club, so I know your pain ;) . I had such a hard time deciding. I really like warmest regards, but I have all those sayings in other sets. Blooming with happiness is "cutsey" and that's not usually my style, although I like it sometimes, for some occasions. I like a number of the cards in the gallery and decided that since it was free (yeah right...I've spent plenty to get my "free" set :rolleyes: ) I would go with something that's different for me. What I reallllly want is both way blossoms, but here in Canada that takes a $450 party:(

Check out this card by AmyR. Gallery at Splitcoaststampers It is awesome!! I got the scrappin kit, it is sooo beautiful. Maybe you have some special pictures and this would get you started in making a special scrapbook.
I voted for warmest regards only bc you don't have the tag punch. I just ordered my first hostess and I went with the tag punch bc it'll be part of my investment. But... warmest regards is next. Not to thrilling or sexy maybe, but I need a smaller "congratulations" muchly!
After that it'll be the blooming with happiness set, I mean, can one ever have enough florals? I think not.
That's my take imho
