Default Which one?

I'm new here and loving it! I am placing a big SU order this month (it's my birthday), and can't decide between Zoofari and Wild about you. Hopefully my poll will work - thanks for your input!

In a pinch, you could probably draw Zoofari. So I voted for Wild About You. Er...unless the only inkpad you have is a black one. Then I would get Zoofari.

I chose Zoofari because you can color them in.

Happy Birthday and have fun shopping!

I chose Wild About You because you DON'T have to color them! But I agree that if you don't have a lot of ink pads, the other would be good.

I have them both!!

Love them both, so I am not really any help...except to tell you that if you have kids to make cards for, I don't think that you can go wrong with either set!

Wild About You! So much more versititle, it can go for kids, baby, adult, etc!

IMHO Zoofari looks like a kid drew them... and not all that well...Just mho!

I have both. What you choose depends on what you like to do! If you love to color, choose Zoofari. If you like solid stamps, Wild about You is the one. I think Wild is more versatile, just because the images are not quite so trendy. But they're both cute.

I just love Wild about You! I'm thinking about getting the other one but it's not at the very top of my list at the moment. Does one of them fit your style more then the other? Have you also checked out the galleries for both sets to see if they can help you decide as well! Have fun!

I have both and love both, but the one thing I REALLY like about Zoofari is that you can color it and have much more "creative license" with it. With Wild About You, because it's solid, you don't have as much "play" with it. Plus, I tend not to be the biggest fan of solid stamps just because they don't always grab the ink as well. Seriously, you can't go wrong either way. Really good things about each set... but OH MY... a rhino stamp in Zoofari! LOVE THAT RHINO!

Hey Cindy, I used to have this problem too. Until, I used my SU sanding blocks on the surface of the stamp. I know it sounds kinda scary to sand your stamps, but you just rough it up enough to take the finish off and then they work great. Makes a world of difference. HTH.

I voted for Wild About You. Although, I think they're both cute.

I have them both but like Wild About You much better. The artwork is better and you can do more with them. You do need different color inkpads....black, yellow, orange, green, pink, grey, blue, et. I think the elephant would be super cute in pink for a baby card. I did the elephant in banana yesurday for a baby shower card...so cute!! Have a happy birthday!!! :-D

Thanks so much for all your responses!! I'm going to go with Wild About You for now, but Zoofari is definitely on my list. Thanks again!

I got Wild About You back in February, and love it. You can really change the look with the colors you use. The Giraffe really makes a cute baby card as seen here:

And you can use your markers instead of ink like I did here:

I got Wild About You right away with last year's catalog and I *LOVE* it. Use it all the time. It's versatile for kid's cards, baby, just for fun, even adult birthday.

Have fun!

I ADORE Wild About You.... Zoofari is not my fave, however that is my personal opinion/style. I think a key factor in deciding should be if you like to color or not, as one tends to need coloring and the other not

The reason I like Wild About You is that it can work for kids or adults. I made my Dad a card with the lion for his birthday.
