Default Cuttlebug alpha - help me decide!!

I plan to go to Mike's either tonight or tomorrow to get an alpha with my 50% off coupon. Trouble is, the more I look at the different ones, the more confused I get! I was set on Olivia, then I looked one more time...you know how that goes. The only one I really don't like is curls & swirls. For those of you who have alphas, which one do you like best? use the most? think is most versatile? TIA!

I had all of them at one point but kept six of hem (got rid of Red Tag Sale, Curls and Swirls, and Typewriter). The one I've been using the most is Fancy Pants, but also love Harmony, Olivia, and You're not the Boss of Me.

I'm leaning toward Olivia. There are some fun samples in the gallery. I like Hippie Chick & Typewriter too. Might depend on what Mike's has in stock, if anything!

I am really liking Olivia. I espeially like the "Thanks" that comes with it - have used it a lot! Good luck with your decision (and Mike's availability!)

I have Olivia, You're not the Boss of Me and Baby Face. I like Olivia the best so far. I think I am going to get Hippie Chick next.

Back from Mike's with Olivia in hand. I was really torn between it and the Typewriter alpha. I can predict that I'll end up with that eventually. But first, Sell-a-bration!

I know I will be getting Olivia next. I was so torn between it and Harmony today, but I needed a script, but then I really liked Olivia.... ;)

It looks like there are currently 9.

Olivia and You're not the boss of me look pretty similar--although maybe size is the difference. I have Olivia. Hippie Chick is taller and narrower, I think.

Babyface, Typewriter and Fancy Pants are all pretty unique.

Harmony and Curlz and Swirlz look like the same general idea. I mean, I don't think you'd need both.

Red Tag Sale is the boldest of them all.
