SU - sheltering Tree vs Branching Out

[KarenBinPa]

Which do you prefer? If you have Branching Out, would you also want Sheltering Tree?

Thanks again!
Karen

I don't have Branch Out, but I do have Sheltering Tree, and can tell you it's equally marvelous in a different way! I think the scale of the tree and the accessories may be a little bit smaller? And now I want Branch Out as well... sigh. I can't resist any stamp featuring a tree

Hi Karen,

I have both sets ...they are just different enough that I wanted both!
Sheltering tree has the cluster of leaves for a quick application of leaves, the 'grass' swoosh, bicycle and sentiments...where branch out has a very pretty tree...and the different icons & snowflakes. I wouldn't wait for sheltering tree to retire before getting it...I'm sure it will skyrocket in price like 'Branch out' has!!

HTH!!

P.s.
Oh...& I like having both the red rubber of Branch Out and the poly of Sheltering tree...It's a whole different stamping experience for me!

Is Sheltering Tree retiring? It's in the main catalog, right?

[stampergrl]

Yes, it's in the main catalog:

Sheltering Tree Photopolymer Stamp Set by Stampin' Up!

I don't know if/when it's retiring...Just saying when it eventually does...

I'm no help I love them both but will say Sheltering Tree has been a little more versatile for me.

I have Branch Out only. I considered ST but decided they were so similar. I went to a class that featured ST. We made four cards with the set. I do like it but for me I didn't need both.
