Recommendation for "tiny" sized sentiments...
you know for when you get a card all done and say, "okay, now where can I fit in a sentiment". I see tons of cards that seem to have these, but I only have one old set by Hero Arts (?).

I got Fancy Flexible Phrases from the winter mini and have never regretted it. I know it is not available now, but you might try the buy/sell/trade fourum

The Angel Company has a nice set of 107 words and some symbols, it's called Soft Spoken. I use it often! Another good deal, and the perfect touch, are two sets called Tag Tidbits and Little Tidbits. These are more saying types, but they are small and cute.

Good point, Karen!  Some folks don't like it (so I've heard, say it isn't true!) but I think it is kinda funky and fun...
I honestly don't use my Snap stamps that often...I'm too lazy I think, that's why I like all of these existing word sets.  |

I have a set from TAC. I think it was called "Tag tidbits" or something like that. A bunch of sayings and all less than an inch. I use it quite a bit.

I have several small words from different sets, but I wanted to share another tricki I use. If you have sets that include a lengthy message but there may be one word you could use, simply use a marker on the word and stamp it. I do that occasionally. My 'I Care" card has that stamped on a tag; I used a stamp from Curvy verses.
Hope that helps!

Technique Tuesday (acrylic stamps) have lots of stamp sets that have little words. Some sets have more than others, thus varying in price. I use Simple Sentiments and Small Talk alot!!

I use the Expressive Flexible Phrases and Everyday Flexible Phrases from SU!
My new favorites are from Papertrey's Faux Ribbon. Their Papertray set could also work, depending on how tiny you need.

TAC has a TONE of mini word sets (though not all are sayings).
But for card sentiments I have to say "Tag Tidbits" pretty much covers them all!

Another vote for TIny Talk. It's really cheap, too. I also love Everyday Flexible Phrases, Cute Converse, and Warmest Regards. But right now my fave is Warm Words!

You can also print out lots of words on a piece of cardstock using your printer, then punch them out and make a cute tag or attach it with brads, etc. to your card. That way you get exactly what you want. I printed my own sentiment on the bottom of this card because I couldn't find what I needed. I do that a lot with just single words and use my punches.

I had this same problem. I was always trying to find smaller sentiments. I just recently purchased the Papertrey set and they work perfectly. I can even use my SU oval punch and that is fantastic!! Good Luck!

I mostly use Tiny Talk and Warm Words from SU! I also try to keep track of which sentiments are in other sets so that I can use them. Often just inking one word is what I need.

My VERY favorite tiny sayings stamps are made by Dolphin Song. The script they use was so perfect with the tiny font. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to locate this company ...I've tried internet searches, etc, and can find some stores that sell them but can't find the company itself. I picked up a business card from The Dolphin Song booth at a stamp show a few years ago, but the web addy on it was not valid. So sad!  Their tiny sentiments are absolutely the best and also the most used ones in my drawer....
I'll check out some of the other suggested sites, maybe there are some that are just as good. __________________
