Default Shapes and Shadows or Simply Circles?

I can't decide between the two. Please let me know what you would choose. Thanks!

I have both, but got Shapes and Shadows first. MamaK is right, it's definitely the more versatile of the two. You can use it for almost any occasion -- I saw a card in the gallery that used the leaf shadow to make a string of Christmas lights!

Shapes and Shadows!!!
I love the little stamps in that set for a background.

There is quite a price difference between the 2 though. But I still vote for S&S

I think the simply circles are more versatile and are cheaper. S&S is great for Christmas but unless I wanted to use it for Christmas cards as well, I would stick with the simply circles.

Definitely S&S! I have both, but I use S&S more than the other - it is so much more versatile. I have used it for birthdays, thank-you notes and Christmas. I absolutely love the set.

I voted Shapes & Shadows too. I have both and use this set much more often. Go look at the galleries for both of these sets, that may help your decision.

The person I quoted is the main reason I ask and got the set for Christmas, (we exchanged today) she has such great inspiration in her gallery, I know I was just there before seeing this thread.

I am SO glad I got S&S last year! It's is SOOOO useful for just about everything! Birthdays (male & female, children or adults) All seasons too!! I do want Simply Circles, but if I had to choose it would be S&S!!

I've seen lots of nice things done w/SS, but it just isn't my cup of tea. I like the circles much better.

Definitely SS! I rarely use my circles set. But, when I see cute samples using the circles, I want to pull it out and use it again.
