Default What do you think of Bugs and Kisses?

Bugs & Kisses by suespms at Splitcoaststampers

How are you feeling about this set? I'm not so sure I want a grasshopper and a worm on a card and yet I'm drawn to it for some weird reason.

I have been tapping my foot impatiently waiting for my chance to get this set since January when they showed it at Leadership Conference.

I wondered where they came from! I knew I had seen a worm card and thought the worm was going to be in the Unfrogettable set - I thought I was losing my mind for a while!

I love Michelle Laycocks cards with this set. I did not get Unfrogettable because I knew I wanted this one. This is much nicer!

When I won the set at Leadership, I wasn't sure I liked it. But when I started playing with it and seeing all the set combining possibilities, the set has really grown on me. This is a set I would have never ordered for myself, but now I'm so glad I have it. My customers LOVE everything I've made with it. I voted definitely Yes.

The hairy caterpillar makes me feel like I have something crawling on me. . . so I don't think I will get it. Although, my nephews would love to get "boy" bug cards - - - so maybe. I'll have to see what you all do with it, before I make up my mind.

I plan to use it in scrapbooks. I have two boys, one who is very into anything creepy or crawly (especially spiders, ewwww) so this set will work well for me.

I really like this set, but then again I am very fond of anything animated.

Nope. I have the Unfrogettable coming and I prefer it over bugs. LOL. I'm not really a "bug" kind of girl.

Although it is a cute set and the samples look great I just can't get over the fact that they have once again included a snail! A SNAIL is NOT a bug!!

I have a sister named Cricket. This set would be great for cards to send to her. Also looks great for BOYS. Is this set available yet? Can it be pre-ordered? Thanks - KAren

I think this will be a fun, cute set. I loved the cards Michelle did several months ago, and will definitely be adding it to my wish list.

I'm undecided right now. I was completely ga-ga over it, then I got Unfrogettable and love it for little boy cards. DS is thrilled with the "goofy" snail. But when he sees the full Bugs and Kisses set, I'm sure he'll beg for it. He is all about bugs after all.

I won't buy it. I think the cards are cute, but I am not into creepy crawly things. I like the cricket, but the worms, etc. give me the creeps.

I like the cards that I have seen--altho that worm does give me the creepy crawlies! I may get it, but I need to see what else is available first!

I thought the set was kinda cute until I saw the sowbug! I lived in a basement suite that was positively infested with the things, and have a strong dislike for them now.

Don't look unless you want to see a yucky sowbug!

I liked what she did with them on her cards...I've a few bug stamps...but more the cutesy ones...dragonflies, google eyed ants & spiders, and butterflies. That is about as buggy as I get.....

I think they look pretty yucky, not their cutest bugs. I just want the ant stamp thats in it, but I'm sure I can find an ant somewhere else

I voted definitely no... Just not my thing. I love the "Cute as a Bug" bugs, but these guys just aren't trippin' my trigger!

Notwithstanding the excellent work in the gallery using this set, I still say, "ewww!"

I don't mind bugs, I just want cuter ones. Waaaaay cuter ones.

It's a set coming out in the new catty - there are samples in the gallery under sneak peek. I guess someone one a set at a SU thingy for demo's in January so has had early access to it. I've been eyeing it for 5 months now... HTH

still not sure how many bugs or what words are in it. The worms (and I hate worms) still have me intrigued... how often would I get a chance to make a card with a worm on it?
