Smile Help! Which alphabet set should I get?

Help..
I can't decide between Headline Alphabet or Letterpress Alphabet? Which do you like better? I'm just torn between the two. I would like one that is versatile because I'm getting into scrapbooking, and I know having an alphabet is important. Calling all cardmakers and scrapbookers!! Which would you rather have...
Any help is appreciated!!!
Thanks

I much prefer the look of Headline over Letterpress... I like the straight lines.

I would say both! I love mine, but if I were to pick just one I would say headline. Just for the simple reason the the letters are easier to cut out if need be, plus it is fun to do the 'kissing' technique on this alpha

My vote is most certainly for Letterpress, love the classic look and it coordinates with everything!

I like Letterpress better. I like the serifs on the letters and I feel that the Headline is just too block-y for me. The only appeal -- to me -- of the Headline alphabet is the kissing technique. Good Luck choosing.

I got Letterpress after having the same debate! I posted on it about a month ago and the clear winner was Letterpress. I do like it!

I like Headline better, but then I like the block look and some things I stamp seem to look better with Headline over Letterpress, but that is my preference.
