Default Favorite SU Stamp set

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!

I love Little Pieces. I use it for backgrounds, borders on scrapbook pages, etc. It is very versatile. I also use Heartfelt Thanks a lot too.

My favorite stamps sets are Seeing Spots and Basket Full of Fun at the present time. There are so many to choose from!!

Of the sets that are retired, my favs are Alphabet Soup, Daisy and On The Farm.

Best of luck with your order!! Hope I can be of some assistance!

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.

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 haven't decided what my favorite is - too many to count!

My favorite retired set is Botanicals and Shapes and Shadows.

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!

Petal Prints is my all-time favorite, followed closely by Canvas, which is the background I use the most.

I got Ahoy Matey
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!

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

Morning Soft. It colors so easily and can be used on so many occasions--birthday, get well, sympathy. Very versatile.

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?"

Wow, I can't believe no one has said Priceless yet (unless I missed it)!
I love that set.
Also Garden Whimsy and Boho Backgrounds.
