Hello Everyone,
I am in need of help trying to decide what Christmas set to get and use for my cards this year. I just cannot decide so I thought I would ask for your opinions. Thanks, Tina
My personal preference would be Keep Christmas, but both sets are lovely. When I have a dilemma like this, I try to imagine what I would do with each one: how would I color them, what sort of card layout would look best, what bg, embellies, ribbon would I use, etc. Then I buy the one that I have the most ideas for.
Peaceful wishes, Is on the top of my list. This set is so versatile . And the christmas cards that are made is gorgoues. CHECK OUT THE GALLERY.

It's someone who buys stamps they didn't normally like at first,only to see it in Split Coast Stampers gallery in a different perspective.
I love them both so I vote get them both and make 2 or 3 different cards this year!!! I am sure that was absolutely no help but I bought them both because I couldn't decide either.

Of the two you posted, I would pick Keep Christmas. Holy Triptych also weirds me out because of the lack of faces. I do however like the tag stamp in that set.

I'm getting Holy Tryptich!!! I already have my card layout in mind. I will have this set at the beginning of Oct and will post my card as soon as I do it!
I've seen some beautiful cards made with Holy Triptych. Cruise the galleries for current Christmas sets to spark some ideas and that might help you make your decision.
Ok, So I have the Holiday Tag Team, and I am going to order Many Merry Messages. I also just ordered Tags for All out of the mini. I liked the Holiday Tag Team because it has lots of different images that will be versatile, and Many Merry Messages because I wanted holiday sayings for insides of cards (and were a little more generic for holiday sayings)....teh Tags for All will make really cute gift tags, plus I saw someone use them and make them not holiday....so, those are what I ordered. I also love Glad Tidings just becuase its so cute!
That said I'm getting Many Merry Messages (I can get about 8 years worth of card saying out of it as I will use a diff. one each year) and Seasons of Joy from the mini
