I absolutely love this set. This is a gorgeous set reminiscent of fine china/porcelain but because of the elements (like the birds and handle that looks like wood) it is a lot more "whimsical" and lively. You can cut out the birds or flowers by themselves and they would make perfect embellishments to cars - but they are so detailed and vibrant when stamped that they could really make cards by themselves. The pitcher can also be used by itself if you just fussycut the bird elements out - then there are many designs that you could stamp inside if you already have other stamps (like patterns, floral themes, dragons, etc). You could also use the diecut on patterned paper, diecut the "belly" portion, and layer that on top of another diecut of the image. There are so many options.
