I have never bought anything from SSS, as their shipping to the UK is quite expensive. However, DS is visiting his friend in Orlando next month, and I thought I would order some stuff to be delivered to her apartment that DS can bring home with him.
Which of their own label dies would you recommend? Maybe ones that you find yourself using over and over? Or ones that are so pretty that I really ought to own them? There is such a range on their website that my eyes start to glaze over after a while!

I don't have a large number of SSS dies, but I do like some of the word dies (use them a lot) and also this Christmas ornament die. Have fun choosing! |

I really like their A2 curve die (https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product/Simon-Says-Stamp-A2-CARD-CURVED-EDGE-Craft-DIE-s201-60685?currency=USD), Heart of Roses (https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product/Simon-Says-Stamp-HEART-OF-ROSES-Wafer-Die-SSSD111542-DieCember-SSSD111542?currency=USD) and their Window Panes (https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product/Simon-Says-Stamp-WINDOW-PANES-Wafer-Die-SSSD111682-Diecember-SSSD111682?currency=USD). I am a beginner though, so you might already own products like these. Some other dies that I would like to buy if I can are the scripty sentiment dies and the stacked hearts and the stacked stars dies. Hope this helps!

I use this basic shapes die set constantly. The large stitched rectangle is a perfect size for cardmaking. This scallop border set gets a lot of use, too. You might consider splurging on a stamp and die set. I made some cute Spring cards with this set, inspired by a Vicki Papaioannou video. The dies are great for shaker cards, too. |

I have too many to list and they are all great! It really depends on what you think you will use so I would suggest you go through the Simon releases and shop away! I love Kristina Werner's handwriting and she designs for SSS so I have a lot of stamps and dies that she has designed.
