Default Do I "need" Movers & Shapers

I have a chance to buy Movers and Shapers at half of from a friend that no longer is into stamping. Do I "need" this? It comes out to $60 for the Movers shapers and 2 sets of punches. Should I save my money for something else?

Do any of us really NEED anything?!? LOL But WANT is a whole "nother" ballgame ;-p
I got Movers and Shapers for Christmas (not the Stampin Up the Sizzix one not sure they are the same) I think that the Deal you would be getting would be really hard to pass up because the price is really good and the Stampin up "dies" are really cute.
I wouldn't hesitate.

Do they really reach more areas of the card than a standard punch?

Yes, they really do! My understanding is that you can place the cuts anywhere on your card; other than some of the longer-reach punches, you can't do this with standard punches, unless you're cutting out a shape to be used for layering. I had the chance to use the Movers and Shapers a couple of weeks ago, and I thought they were terrific!

The only negative is the fold has to be crosswise on your card so it opens up wide if you understand what I mean. I like mine though.

Yes! You NEED this.:mrgreen: Plus you are getting a great deal.

I just have the Movers and Shapers "Curly Label" and I love it. It's great!

I'm glad the answers were "yes" since I am waiting for mine to arrive! LOL!
