Well I pre-ordered the stamp set. I figured I could use it for ds's page about Covid and his tib-fib fracture but use it on get well cards and any future needs. It's a win win and I can color it how I want it. Not sure if I will get the matching dies. IMHO the stamps are the most versatile, given smiley faces are optional! If you anticipate frequent use on layouts &/or cards, the coordinating dies (with a get well sentiment & speech bubble) would be handy. HTH ETA: Are Doodlebug dies connected/tabbed or snipped? |

When did Doodlebug switch to having the smiley faces on everything? I loved Doodlebug years ago and I don't remember that being a thing then. I think the faces first started in 2017 with the 'So Punny' collection. 2 recent collections 'Hello Again' and 'My Happy Place' did not have the faces and I ordered both of them. Maybe because my mom recently had some serious medical issues I don't think the faces go with a medical theme. Although for a kid's regular office visit I guess it may work. |

Are Doodlebug dies connected/tabbed or snipped? You don't have to snip them apart. I don't like when I have to take a wire cutter and snip dies apart, I feel like if you pay that much for dies you shouldn't have to do that. |

... I don't think the faces go with a medical theme. ... Agreed. Plus, it would seem a non-smiley collection would have wider appeal for documenting older children, teens, adults, Covid, etc. Hope your mom is on the mend. |

I agree &, therefore, avoid connected/tabbed dies! |

The shaker with the little bandaids... but I'll never buy it because I have no use.

I agree with the sentiment that putting smiley faces on a medical theme is off putting. I can’t think of any photos that it would be appropriate. Maybe baby’s first well-visit? But I wouldn’t buy a whole collection for that.

Thanks for your responses. While the theme is scarce since Covid, this collection seems a missed opportunity for universal appeal due to the smiley faces. Plus, the colors are a generic spring palette. Nothing is added to my wish list.
