Default Which wheel to buy?

I want to buy my first wheel at my club meeting this week but I'm not sure which wheel to buy. Which one is a good versatile one to start with? Which one do you use the most? TIA.

I like Whirly Twirly. If you stamp it in/on green, it's a vine, and you can draw or stamp little flowers on it! Stamp it in/on blue, and it's water! Stamp it in White, and it's a swirling wind! It's also just great for borders and backgrounds.

I also like Hot to Dot. Dots are all the rage right now, too! You can even add more color to this wheel, by coloring in some of the empty dots. It's too cute!

Good luck deciding!

Default Can think of the name right now, but

I love the one that goes with the stamp set that has the words "Hey" and "party"... sortof a geometric star that can also be a flower. I use it alot!

Agreed on Hot to Dot. I use that one with all kinds of occassions. Whimsical Blossoms is good for "dressier" cards (like weddings, anniversaries, etc.).

I love my wheels and use them as much as possible. I love that I can instantly make printed paper out of plain old cardstock (especially with the Hot to Dot one!).

Good luck,
Kelly

My favorite wheels are the ones that give a good background, like the stitched plaid or the check ones. I don't know which of these are current now. I like to be able to dress up a plain piece of cardstock in a hurry. I guess that is why I am obsessed with background stamps too!

Thank you all for your input. You have made my decision easier for me because I was leaning toward Hot to Dot and Whirly Twirly. It sounds like these would both be goods one to start with for now. Do you think there will be more jumbo wheels in the new catty? I really want to get Wash Day but so far that is really the only jumbo wheel I like much. I just hate to buy the handle to only use on one wheel. I did like the wheel that was in the Spring mini that matched the Cool Cat set. Do you think it will make the new catty? I didn't think much about buying it then because I had not realized that I "needed" wheels too. LOL.
