Do you still use your alphabet stamps? Or do you do all your lettering with your Cricut? I've only used my alpha stamps once since I got my Cricut so I'm wondering what others did with there alpha stamps did you keep them or get rid of them?

I dont' use my alpha stamps anymore, but I've only had my Cricut for about 3 months. Maybe when some of the newness wears off I'll use the stamps more again, lol. ;)
I have had my Cricut for about a month. I have a lot of letter stickers, chip boards, and stamp letters that haven't been touched since.
I also think that soon I will get tired of the 4 fonts I have and will get the others back out again.
I think it totally depends on what you are using each for. I have been using the Cricut for scrapbooking mainly. Because the letters only go down to a certain size, you can still have a need for your stamps. I'm a hoarder though and love all my options. I just got a Cuttlebug as well and it does some of the same stuff as the Cricut.. So really I am overlapping uses with all the stuff I own.
I have both and I use both. There are some stamps that I don't think you get the same feel if you try to use the cricut...alphadots and notebook alpha are just two of them that come quickly to mind.
I have had the Cricut since December and have not touched one alphabet set since. I sold off about 20 of my sets and have only kept a handful "just in case" I ever want to use them again.
I use both!! I've had my cricut for almost a year and I dont use it as often as I thuoght I would, even though I have a bunch of cartridges - I think it is great for scrapbooking, but I still love certain things about having my stamps available (I guess I'm just a hoarder!! :mrgreen: ) I say the more options, the merrier!
I use both - depends on what look I'm trying to achieve. I have most of the alphabet cart's, and use them for various different things. Since the letters don't weld into a word (although with 2 cart's you can approximate fairly closely), if it's a long word, I usually just pull out an acrylic alpha stamp set. HTH's.
I have never really been fond of the alphabet stamps. Now that I have the Cricut I use it and I also have all of the sizes of the snap stamps so I will not be buying anymore alphabet stamps.
Thank you all so much for your replies. I'm going to hang onto my alphabet stamps for now and see what happens, I only have three sets so they are not taking up to much space
