			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve owned CTMH&#8217;s Sans Alphabet for a year or two now. I love that small little alpha. When <a href="http://papertreyink.com/" target="new">PTI</a> came out with their own <a href="http://papertreyink.com/stamps_simplealphabet.html" target="new">Simple Alphabet</a>, I wondered if I needed both.  I was told that the PTI font was smaller. So I splurged and bought it <img src='http://carefreecreations.haman.us/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>There are differences between the two sets that I thought I would enumerate for anyone else wondering.</p>
<p>1.  The size &#8211; PTI Simple Alpha is smaller.  I&#8217;ve attached an image below to compare. The CTMH Sans Alpha is on top, the PTI is below.  I like the size of the CTMH but many times I have wanted to squeeze something on a small tag and haven&#8217;t been able to fit it all, so the PTI set has come in handy more than once already!</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-9" title="Alpha Comparison" src="http://carefreecreations.haman.us/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/alphacomparison_ctmhpti.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="109" /></p>
<p>2.  The actual blobs that the CTMH image sits on are form-fitting to the image, so you can get your letters closer.  PTI are all uniformly shaped squares, so you get a mono-spaced affect. However, I have trimmed many of my PTI letters close and have not had any problems.</p>
<p>3.  You get 2 of each letter with the CTMH set; upper case is sold separately from lower case as well as numbers. PTI gives you 1 of each letter &#8211; lower and upper &#8211; and number; however, you also receive extra letters &#8211; some as many as 3 extras.</p>
