Default What's so great about spots?

I have the EE spots, and I'd really like to get all the rest. But I DO have all 48 classic pads (49 now with the basic brown). Am I just collecting? Or is there a good reason to have the spots as well as the classic pads?

Why do you love your stampin spots?

I love their portability!
You wouldn't want to take your 48 regular sized pads with you, would you?

I agree, portability. I can take the four boxes of spots to a crop and not sit there saying "Oh, darn, I didn't bring just the right color ink."

Oooo...Thanks, Keri! That's exactly what I was looking for I love the ideas about background stamps. Guess I'll be adding a spot set to my SAB order...

Oh, man, now I want the spots, too! I haven't been taking any stamping stuff home to my parents' house because it just ends up needing too much of my precious trunk space (even though the Focus has a really roomy one for such a small car).

I thought I was set when I got the rest of the classic pads during SAB 2003. What are you ladies doing to me! :P

I like using the spots for quick projects with smaller stamp sets like "year round fun 2". For some reason I seem to get through projects quicker with the spots. As well, if you're using a lot of colors at one time they take up WAY less room than full size pads.

In my book--everything! I love them--my customers love them--and they sell themselves when someone sees that cute little box with those 12 happy colors in them! So easy to use--very portable---great way to get all colors quick---very reasonable price...... The list goes on! :lol: Gina

The spots are a very affordable way to get all the colors.
