I definately don't regret getting this set. Check out the gallery and case a card then you might get rid of your "frog block" and come up with some great originals to share. Good Luck!
I was surprised that I wanted it right away when I saw it...."cute" isn't usually my style, but I love it. It's fun and easy to work with.

I did at first - I didn't mount it for quite sometime. But, when I finally did, I found myself using it all the time. Great set to make cards for kids, and I love masking the snail, the mushrooms, etc.
I love this set. I initially got it to scrapbook pages of my children. Then, once I mounted it, I started making cards with it. My customers love it! I've sold a number of them. I use it to make adult and kid cards.
When I first saw the set, I thought "no way". But the Gallery made me buy it. Even my doubting customers ("no way", themselves) love it. Mount it and use it. It's fun, I swear!
mine should be here monday, but i dont think i will regret buying it.. im glad to have it.
i regret not having ENOUGH boy sets to even out my girl sets, so their cards always resemble one another.
im excited to have something new for boys.. and i can use it with my princess set for girls too! i love it.

me too Linda once the scs girls played with it .It changed my mind and I had to have it too! Plus I have a son who is 6 and I really needed a boys set.

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 absolutly love this set, it will probly be one of the few that will remain in my collection forever. That is saying something because in the past 6 years I have just under a dozen sets that I have kept.
Even though I'm not a froggie nut, this set said "Buy Me", it was the only one I purchased from the mini. I made some great cards with this one and I think all but one of my customers purchased it, that says alot about the set.
I have a wonderful backyard water garden, with real frogs, over the past few years I have taken some super pics out there and can't wait to do some pages with this set.
I will never regret buying this awesome & so versitile set!

I LOVE this set! To me this set isn't a boys' set. It can make equally cute girl and boy cards. It's not just for kids either. I think it makes a great set for anyone!

I don't regret getting this set. I love it. I've made quite a few cards since recently getting it. It's soooooooo cute. I also love the snail and toadstool/mushroom. It can be mixed with other sets too. Get it mounted and start using it. I'm sure you will really like once you do.
Art is intended to provoke an emotion from a total stranger. If you�ve succeeded in this, consider yourself an artist. Paper Shanks Blog. Love me or hate me, you are still talking about me
I'm the opposite --I DIDN'T order it & am regretting it!! I think it's really cute & all the wonderful cards I've seen in the gallery using this set --well, as usual --very inspiring!!!
Regret not getting it. The day I saw it, I thought the frogs looked kind of basic and without personality. I did always like the snail. Well, now I see all the darling cards.....wish I had it.

Can't you still order it until the end of May?

No regrets here - when I first saw samples in the gallery (from folks who got it at leadership, maybe?), I wasn't too impressed because most of the samples were just stamped in green (or some other color) and were, well, boring. But then I saw the mini and the water coloring and shading and color combos and was hooked. Now, I can't get enough of it!
I think that I too will regret NOT ordering it. I only have so much money to spend before the end of May and its just not in the budget! Unless I suppose I can do without cardstock (which I need badly!).

According to the SU website, the Spring Mini Catalog goes until May 31, 2006, so you still have time to get it. HTH
I've warmed up to this set slowly. Masking was tougher than I thought, and y'all made it look like such an easy set with the SCS samples! But I think I'm getting the hang of it. I ordered the Dots and Daisies BG to go with it because they look so cute together. Truthfully, I love the little flower and the flower/grass wheel as much as the frog and snail. Go figure!
No way--I absolutely love this set! One suggestion when mounting (I didn't do this, and I regret it)--cut some of the excess rubber off between the leaping frog's legs to avoid inky "frog poopie" looking blots.
Okay - I just might have to take the scissors to it and give it a try.
Excellent! You may want to consider singing "Unfrogettable" (to the tune of "Unforgettable," of course) while cutting. ;) Although, honestly, I sang that much more when I was just thinking about getting the set. DH was worried I'd be singing it more once I had it, but I think that it was on my mind much more when I was thinking about buying it.
Of course, Mothers Day is just around the corner......nobody ever buys me anything here.....maybe that will be my present to myself
Well-placed hints have worked wonders for me. I'm not a mother, but I did "hint" to my husband that I wanted a certain Christmas gift. The hint went like this -
me - "Sweetie, do you know what I'd *really* like for Christmas?"
him - "What?"
me - "I'd like a ..."
That level of subtlety worked perfectly!
If you "suggest" a stamp set, he may decide that you should order it for yourself and it will be his gift to you and all has been wrapped up quite neatly.
I don't even bother w/ hints anymore. I order/buy what I want and say "Honey you need to give me $$" - he asks why and I say it's for a gift for such and such occasion - works perfectly and I get exactly what I wanted!! ;)
As for Unfroggetable - I ordered it and love it and would have regretted NOT getting it!
Did anyone regret ordering Unfrogettable?
