Punch or no punch?
 
I own the Looks Like Spring stamp set. What do you think about the punch? Should I order it before it is too late or will I regret not ordering?

It is an AWESOME punch...unless you are a demo on a tight-tight budget (meaning you only buy things you are sure you can demo for awhile)...order it.

michlz319 05-14-2006 06:46 PM

Nope, I'm not a demo....although I am on a tight budget!

I have it and love it. I am actually surprised at how much I have used it already:)

I can't imagine this punch not making it into the new catalog, along with the matching set. I might be wrong of course, but for some reason it just seems like it would be more of a bother for them to make (or arrange to have made for them) such an intricate punch, and with a coordinating set, for such a short selling period. ????? And it likewise seems to me that if it wouldn't make it, then there'll be a whole bunch of them coming up for sale after it retires since so many demonstrators purchased it. So, I voted for waiting, although with a caveat - if you absolutely love it and can't live without it then by all means get it now while you're 100% sure!

I think the punch is really cute! I'd get it if I had the set.

birdbrain 05-14-2006 08:41 PM

Yes, order it! Everyone says they can't imagine that SU would go to all the trouble to make the set w/ coordinating punch and paper if they weren't going to be in the new catty, which is pretty good thinking, BUT you just never know, life is full of surprises...good and bad. I'm a demo, and even if that punch doesn't make the new catalog, I'm keeping mine!:)

I say yes Definitely! My kids just LOVE this punch and so do I!

As a new demo who isn't making much money, I'm also on a tight budget, and, I also debated about this punch. But, I figured for demoing, it would be good to have it, too. So, I ordered it ... and I LOVE IT!!! I use it even when I don't use "Looks Like Spring" - the flowers are so cute as an embellishment, can be layered, and are just great in general. Anyway, if you get it and regret it, I'm sure you will be able to re-sell it here in the B/S/T forum or on EBay with no problems ... especially if it doesn't show up in the main catty! HTH!! :D

I agree. If I had the set, I wouldn't want to take a chance on the punch.

Me, too. It's worth having. I use the punched flowers with the set and separately, too. Get it if you love the set.

BsmtScrapper 05-15-2006 06:04 AM

I vote to order it now. Because when the new catty comes out--you will want some many other things--you may change your mind. :)

kphorse 05-15-2006 06:08 AM

I wasn't sure about it either. I ordered it and have not used it yet. But, this way I have it in case it is not in the current catty. You can alwasy trade it later if you don't use it. But, the e-bay cost if you wanted it later - BIG $$

I ordered the punch first and am waiting for it to be delivered. I have a cardswap this weekend and will be probably getting the matching sets.

I'd order it now to be sure. I use mine ALL THE TIME. Having said that, I feel confident it will be in the new catty. I can't imagine SU making such a nice big punch JUST for a mini catalog!

happystamper05 05-15-2006 06:32 AM

I didn't think I would need the punch but regretted not getting it almost immediately! The punch really adds the finishing touches to the large flower in the set. Get it.....you won't regret it! :-)

Have a stamp-happy day!

Clownmom 05-15-2006 03:48 PM

I didn't order it until we used it at a workshop I attended. Then I had to have it! Of course, I'm sure that is the whole idea of workshops -- to show you how you can use things. I have not regretted buying it.

Kathyc 05-15-2006 04:06 PM

I thought the Spring Mini was all done; can you still get the punch?

llevans 05-15-2006 04:24 PM

If you wanted anyone to talk you out of it....you came to the wrong website!!! LOL!!! I love mine, no regrets here. When the new catty comes, there will be MANY new things to love!

boobookittysgranny 05-15-2006 06:56 PM

The punch and the set are available until May 31st.

GarnetJ 05-15-2006 07:39 PM

It's a great punch even without the Looks Like Spring set.

christief 05-15-2006 07:47 PM

I answered Yes, order it now. I do believe it will likely make the new catty (I'm not a demo--it's just my own opinion), but it's such a great and versatile punch that anyone who is remotely interested in it should get it!!!
