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.
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.
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!
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.

Oh, I forgot about Baroque Motifs! That is one of my favorites and I haven't used it in soooo long.
my fav...at the moment...Season of Friendship....and Branch Out...which I don't actually have...but love the gallery...full of absolutely gorgeous cards...
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 is my all time favorite but I also love Inspired by Nature.
And Upsy Daisy
And Medallion
And Animal Crackers for kids cards.
And All in the Family

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.

My favorite is Fifth Avenue Floral!! Love, love, love! If you'd like... send me your address and I would love to share with you some pre-stamped images for you to color and some stamped on pretty designer series paper!!!! Or, if there is another set you would like to sample and I have it, let me know and I will send that one instead. Friends 24-7 is sooo great too!!!!!
Have a great night!!

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.
