Smile Which sets for scrapbooking do you use?

I am just starting to scrap after years of making cards with my stamps. If you are a scrapper what SU sets do you use in your scrapbook? I find that I have to look at paper and everything abit different now since I have changed my focus. I appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!

i scrap pages mostly of my son, and usually they are of special days or event, so i use stamps that co-ordinate with that. there's a kid's animal set in the SU! catalog. (i forget the name) but i really loved that set. it can have more than just one use too. the penguin/winter. the lion, for a "wild" page, etc.

wanted to add, flourishes are really in for scrapbooking too. i want the SU! priceless set really bad. TAC sells a lot of flourish sets, they are all a little different, and quite beautiful.

I love the Always set. Flourishes is nice too and I like to add something random like a bird or an owl or a flower. Whichever hits me then. You can see a few in my gallery or my blog.

I love the Sassafrass stamps - so cute!

Default My .02

I was a scrapbooker, then became a cardmaker and now I'm trying to get back into scrapbooking. I bought Family Affair, Accessories, and also got Amazing to Zany. I also bought Elementary Essentials for School Scrapbooks. I think most SU sets could be used for both cardmaking and scrapbooking. Also alphabets are a must have for scrapbooks.

I started as a scrapbooker so I find ways to use ALL my stamps on layouts! I have used SU So Much on a great page with my son and dogs HERE

and whimsical alpha HERE

and WANTED HERE

I use a lot of alphas but if the image is big enough its fine for a 12 X 12 l/o. Anything goes for smaller pages!

Good Luck! HTH!
