Lightbulb What is your favorite SU stamp set?

Hi Ladies,

I'm looking to buy a new stamp set or two from SU. What stamp set do you absolutely LOVE and CAN'T live without? I'm hoping you'll give me some ideas.

Thanks and enjoy your day
Robyn

I'm using Vintage Vogue a lot lately. The Friends 24-7 that was already suggested is also a good one.

I agee with Lovely as a Tree . . .Its a standby when my mind goes blank. It can be used for every occasion and can be "dressed up" or "dressed down", masculine or feminine . . . .

Love the new vintage vogue set and the medallion background. If it is oldies but goodies, I would say Lovely as a tree is my all time favorite.

Wow, a lot of the same answers here! My all time fave is "Lovely as a Tree" and my new fave is "Vintage Vogue". I gotta go check out the Friends 24-7, for some reason I don't remember that one...........

Upsey Daisy. Very versatile stamp. I also love my Crazy for Cupcakes set. You always need birthday cards, and you can make cards fluffy/girly or manly with this set just by changing the paper.

From the current catalog, I LOVE Bird On a Branch. That set has been inked up so many times...I certainly got my money's worth. From the current mini, I can't wait to get my hands on Vintage Vogue.

Buy some of the sets in the previous posts (or my favorite "Priceless buy All Holidays to get sentiments to cover most cards you would make with them.

If I were to only get 1 pick - I would say friends 24-7. I use the flourish ALL the time for backgrounds and as a focal point and I adore and use the bird alot.

But I just got Vintage Vogue with the new clear mount option and for the free SaleAbration set I got the vintage labels set - I can't wait to get to use both this week....I do agree with the above poster that Lovely as a Tree is great too - I just haven't bought it yet ----oh another one I see gorgeous cards with (and don't have) is the medallion stamp.

Let us know what you choose!

Honestly I love Loads of Love, the truck is so cute and it can be masculine or girly and is very versatile. It's also an oldie but goody!

All of the sets mentioned here are definitely good ones. I also find that I used Baroque Motifs a lot. That big swirly, flourishy stamp is just the perfect addition to SOOO many cards I have made. LOVE it!!

Well...that depends....on what you are wanting...images or words...My new SU fav is the Well Scripted set as I just love that flourishy? is that a word? font style. There is a similar set as a SAB item, which I now have too.

With whatever you decide, have fun!

I second this one! I love that truck - and with the accessories set, many events/holidays are covered. The truck can be colored or paper pieced to suit any time of year.

I really like Upsy Daisy and Oval All. But I am also falling in love with Vintage Vogue and Meallion - which I just got yesterday!!! Medallion is for sure a "Wow" stamp that can be used in so many ways and for so many different occasions.

Lovely as a Tree for sure. I hope it never retires!
Upsy Daisy is great too.

I'm really liking this thread...it's making me want to pull out some of these sets again!

As a Stampin' up Demo I have to agree that Lovely as a Tree is a overall favorite. My personal favorite is Season of Friendship. For versitility I think Pick-a-Petal is great. Its amazing the things you can create with it....not just flowers but butterflies, dragon flies, surf boards.....

I really like Thoughts and Prayers. I can tuck a sentiment under that gorgeous flower spray. I can ink the stamp up with markers, ink pads, emboss it. I just love it to pieces!!!

For my second one, I am going to agree with Lovely as a Tree. Although, Upsy Daisy and Inspired By Nature come to mind as well.

I really like the Both Way Blooms(use it a lot), Simply said, and Garden Collage(don't think it is available any longer). I agree with Boroque Motifs and Thoughts and Prayers, too.

God's Blessings hands down is the most used one by me for word stamps. Probably have used Lovely as a Tree the most, but sure do like Thoughts and Prayers.
