Default faved SAB's

Hey everyone,

Just looking to choose some SAB items. Which ones have your liked the most? I know it is an individual thing, so, also which ones do you think you will get the most use out of? I am trying to decide about the Epic celebration stamp set.

I got Party Panda as a friend loves Pandas and I figured I could use that for lots of birthday cards. For her and many others! Epic Celebration is on my list, but I haven't placed another order yet to include that one.

I can't. remember. which one I ordered. Oh, wait, I remember. I got the soda pop paper. I looooooooove paper.

The pandas were one of my choices, too, but a friend got those and I know I can borrow them. I also already have a different non-SU panda set I've barely touched.

Eclectic Expressions is the next one I'm getting. And OMG, I just realized as I was typing this that it coordinates with the naturally eclectic DSP (which I own)! Cool!

Epic Celebrations is not really my cup of tea-- looks like it'd be great for a bunch of teen cards, though.

I got the pandas and the heartfelt blooms. I'm not real impressed with SAB this year. I am getting the new dsp and eclectic stamp in my march order. I love paper but not crazy about the soda paper.

Take a look at the 2nd round SAB paper, Springtime Foils. It's beautiful.

Heartfelt Blooms is so gorgeous IRL! In the catalog I thought it was really nothing special and didn't even give it a second glance, but then I got to use it in a swap and omg the flowers look so beautiful stamped in ANY color. So if you like flowers at all I'd very much recommend that one.

I was also surprised at how much I like Lots of Lavender. Really easy to use and lay down the layers for a detailed look.

I went for the peacock one, because the flourishes in it are lovely!

As usual with sets I like parts but not the whole. I am glad I can get from the first batch after the second came out because there was not enough in the first for me and I am still struggling to decide. I like the sneakers and headphones in epic.
I am looking at the heartfelt blooms. The flowers to me are a nice way to do a silhouette, and I like the font on the sentiments.

I wish that there were more photopolymer selections and glitter paper this year. I�m having trouble finding something I like and may not bother ordering this year.

Since I have two teenage boys that both play guitar, I'll be getting the Epic Celebrations one. I'll probably qualify for a second set, and I'm torn between the cute pandas or the Eclectic Expressions in the second catalog.

Heartfelt Blooms was my favorite of all. I made a Thinking of You card in my gallery with it. (I can't remember how to post the link!).

For me, SAB this year was a bit underwhelming. I liked last year's better with the Tasty Trucks. I just felt there was more variety then---JMHO.

I did also pick up the soda pop paper as a last minute item and it is actually wayy cuter in person than the photograph.

I got Heartfelt Blooms and the Pandas. I am struggling with Heartfelt Blooms, because I want to colour them, need to keep practising. Love the pandas, got that set for kids cards. The Springtime Foils paper is beautiful and heavyweight (great for boxes) love it, and the Blossoming Basket and Basketweave EF as well.

It's difficult to say what someone else should get since we all have different tastes, but I will say I've loved stamping the Party Pandas because they are so cute and just make me smile. I'm also looking forward to the new Springtime Foils DSP and Eclectic Expressions stamp set.
