What's your favorite stamp set...

[scrapingirl]

in this catalog or from any of the mini's? I have to place an order and I'm looking to get only to best and most versatile. So your job is to talk me into a couple of good sets. I am already ordering canvas(LOVE IT!), collage alpha, and wonderful words. I have in full bloom and petal prints and EFP. Those are my fav's. Now how about you!!
Thanks!

Funny! Those are all my favorite! :lol:

I also LOVE "I'm Here" and "All Wrapped Up" and "All Natural"

All Natural is SUPER versitile! I actually had to hide it away for awhile b/c it was all I would use in a hutch of 100+ stamp sets!

[demodarla]

My daughter and I love Tropical Blossoms and I just ordered Botanicals and love it!

[scrapingirl]

Amanda-I would never think of using all natural so much. See, this is why I like to ask questions like this. Thanks for you help!

Darla- I love Botanicals! I was using it all the time that I finally had to find a new favorite set, because that's all I would use. Trop blossoms looks like a really fun set to use, too. !thanks!

I got Sketch an Event in my starter kit. I thought it would be OK, and that I could use it for demos. Suprisingly, I have been using it quite a bit for my own stuff. I am liking it more and more all the time!

My "go to" set is Shapes and Shadows. I am amazed at how versatile it can be. Definitly a must have!

[tomoly]

My favorite right now is Stipple Celebrations. I love it. No coloring or anything, it's just done with one stamp.

[meaprincess]

Terrific Tulips. It's a two step set and makes really beautiful cards! One of the first sets I ordered and I still use it all the time.

[Disneywed]

I like Love without end and the new sell a bration one...Fun filled

[karrieg]

When I need something special I always reach for Watercolor Garden II. I love the versatility I can get from it and it makes beautiful cards!

Terrific Tulips for me, too. This is one of those sets that I always wanted but always put off buying. I finally bought it last month and it's the only set I use now.

Roses in Winter hands down, I can't get enough of that one.

But since doing a water misting technique swap, Watercolor garden is up there too.

And Bug Builders is way too fun (I added hearts to make love bugs).

Dana

[SuzBC]

Paint Prints from Sell-a-Bration has been lots of fun.

[StampinSteph]

ahhh, love bugs, now that's one I will have to try - I just got that set to scrap my boy pages and that would be too darn cute. Thanks for the idea!

My FAVs are Terrific Tulips and All Natural. But I really go in cycles. I always look forward to my fall and winter stamps when it's time and now I'm jonesing for my spring and summer sets. I'd have to agree that All Natural is very fun all year round.

Happy Shopping!

[Maggiemoo]

I'd go with Shapes and Shadows. Just check out the gallery and you'll see what I mean....
I just cannot get enough of that stamp set!!!

[Stampinlacey]

I am really liking More Petal Prints. I like All The Best, and Wonderful Words!

[MyraRivera]

My CURRENT favorite stamp set is Bundle Up (with the Twinkle wheel) from the Winter Mini !!! I really hope this set makes it to the 2005 - 2006 IB&C !!! :P

[StampnCroplady]

Okay, I have to vote.
I love Watercolor Garden II and WCG. II is my favorite. I also love Fun Filled from SAB. I use Sketch An Event quite alot too. I'm also surprised at how often I find myself reaching for Tags and More.

[justampin]

Love love love paint prints from SAB I find it so easy to make a quick card. Lovely as a tree. All seasons and easy for masculine cards. Paris in the spring, fun set.

[StampinAntie]

All Natural
All the Best

Sounds familiar doesn't it...... my stealth stamp set is:

Delightful Doodles coming in at a very reasonable 11.95

I love the flower sets! Watercolor Garden II, Paint Prints, and Petal Prints are all very versatile. You can get a lot of different looks with them. I also love Roses in Winter. I've been playing with that a lot lately, but have to say I don't think it's as versatile as the others. I know I've probably forgotten some! :?

[Chillin]

Favorites:

Roses in Winter
Greetings Galore
Watercolor Minis
Wonderful Words

I just ordered WCG and WCG II and got Wee Watercolors as my hostess set.

Oh, and the set that "Had to Have" and have yet to use:

On the Line. I simply go creatively blank when I take it out.

[bacline2]

My all-time fav set is "Lovely As A Tree."

Bobbie

[PenelopePitstop]

I use Watercolor Garden 2 all the time. I love that even though it's 2 step stamping it really doesn't matter how I line it up and it still looks great.

I also like simply circles, hot to dot wheel, Toy box (I have 2 little boys), In Full Bloom, and Fishy Friends.

[Angela Bounds]

I love a lot of them but my favs are:

botanicals
all natural
lovely as a tree
frosty (which I don't own, but borrow for months on end---lol)
shapes and shadows

Oh yeah and in full bloom

OK, so I can't narrow it down much, but there you go.

[scrapingirl]

WOW! thank you so much for you all of your input. I'm going to check out all of the sets in the gallery and then make my decision. Thanks for all of your help!

[kimmiekrafts]

My fav right now is Paint Prints....using it for EVERYTHING!

[grazina]

Roses in Winter is my favorite right now. Just had a class stamping silk scarves with it and it was a favorite with the customers. The snowflake stamp was also great.

[Auntielauri]

Watercolor garden in my favorite.

I am voting with others here. Shapes and Shadows is such a versatile set--I just LOVE it!

When I am undecided, I go to the galleries and see which sets have some of the most samples posted. Then I peruse the samples to see if the cards fit my stamping style.

I am sure, if you order something you like, you can't go wrong!

[glenda s]

My favorite stamp sets are --

Friendship's Journey
Roses in Winter
Watercolor Garden 1 & 2

Love the Collage Alpha & Canvas stamps.

Glenda

[MommyStamper]

French Script, Roses in Winter and i don't know all of them... LOL

[dbeattie]

My NEW favorite (once I can get my hands on it!) is Cool Cat from the spring mini!! Love it! I'm really in a "retro" phase lately!! I also want the matching wheel!!!
Dawn

[tickley_toes]

There is one stamp set that I have that I wouldn't have thought would be so good but I always go back to it when I'm making a quick card is Bold Basics. I've done lots with it from birthday, valentine and Christmas cards. My newest favorite is Paint Prints.

[Jenmouer]

my top 3 are

Shapes and Shadows - love it....
In Full Bloom - works great with the aquapainter and some twinkling H2O's
Background Basics - adds a little something to vast blank areas

[cindy_canada]

Paris in the Spring. It was the first set I bought and it's still the one I use the most! It's so versatile.

Cindy

[AndreaSophie]

That's so funny Cindy - Paris in the Spring was my first set too, and it is what got me sucked into all of this stampin craziness lol!

[shellypasek]

Lovely As A Tree! you can use this set for anything from Sympathy to Christmas and everything in between!! I also love the Watercolor Garden II, and Petal Prints (hope it makes the new catty!!)

Have fun choosing!
