I'm ready to place my first large and (personal) order for SU products. Would like your opinions.....what is your favorite stamp set (excluding those that have been retired)? However, I'd also be curious to know your favorite retired set too Thanks!
This answer will not be very exciting, but I use Itty Bitty Backgrounds on almost every single card I create, or at least a great majority of them. So, although it is not my favourite set, it is probably the set that I use the absolute most -- especially that speckled one ... love it.
favorites:
happy everything- *love* this!
seeing spots....works great alone or as a background
wild about you-enough said!
serene sunflower....cannot make a bad card with this one!
booglie eyes
sassy stems......super versatile!
paisley.
I'm another that votes for Itty Bitty Backgrounds, it may not be very exciting to look at but it makes a good card great, especially if you are a floral set lover.
Also, you need as many backgrounds as possible. Backgrounds make all the difference to your card. So, IMO, floral, paisley, French Script, Canvas or Linen and Print Pattern really do make your cards look wonderful.
I like Lovely as a Tree - this set can be used for everything. I also agree with Deb & Ally about Itty Bitty Backgrounds. My favorite retired set is Terrific Tulips. Of course, there are a LOT of sets that come in a very close second!
Location: I don't have to travel far for convention! Yeah!

So many to choose from! I love "Be Happy" my current favorite. I just purchased a whole bunch of stamps with the $150 gift card I earned in Great Rewards! I loved getting that box!

Word Search
Still Life Stems
Finials and Frames
All in a Row
Take Three
and a bunch of other things I just can't remember right now. I LOVE being a SU demo!

in Julie's Stampin Studio! My Tiny Gallery...is growing! p.s. if you CASE me, I am flattered! Thank you very much! Session 2... Can't wait!
Heartfelt Thanks is my all-time favorite! I think I could be happy with just that one set for the rest of my life. I prefer having a small amount of sets and trying to be more creative with them instead of having a gazillion sets and doing the same things over and over again. It challenges me.
oh look, I babbled again! :oops: lol
Current set: Heartfelt Thanks and Craved and Candlelit a great fall stamp set
Retired set: Shapes and shadows (This set was fun, quick to use and so versatile).
Location: Somewhere in the middle...closer to there, nearer to here...

Most loved current set: Toss up between Wild About You---this set can be used for just about any purpose except maybe sympathy and Floral Background ( I adore this stamp!)
Favorite retired set: That's harder! Kimono, Wonderful Wings, and Fashion Statements are my most used sets, but they make me so happy!
This is hard...it's like saying, "Which of your children do you love the best?"
I agree, Priceless is my fave. I use those swirlys all over the place. I also love Fabulous Flowers and Seeing Spots. Oh, and Loads of Love with the accessories. I love so many of them!!!
