I've been thinking about this too and I've decided to order Winged Things. I have In Full Bloom and I just can't take the chance that I won't see this one again for a while.
Oh yeah! And you gotta get Cool Cat! Just look in the gallery! There are so many great cards! i hated that set until samples started popping up in the gallery...now I have it and love it!
I got Balmy Breezes and I really like it. Some of my other similar sets in style (Travels Abroad, Parisian Plaza, etc) are being retired, so I am hoping it makes teh big catty. I think itis versatile enough for men or women and love the color range for the set.
My two cents

I'd have to go with the Alpha Bits & Punches as well. There will always be another stamp set as far as the images go - but this is something completely different!
I ended up with Cool Cat because of all the great samples here! I also got Winged Things because it's a great compliment to In Full Bloom and I love to water-color.
I also got Alphabits and the punches. I'm hoping they'll all end up in the new catty.
I have to admit, if I had kids, I'd get When I Grow Up and the Alphabet set. And if I were a bike rider, I'd get the Life Cycles.
I like Balmy Breezes too, but I can't have everything... can I?
My only couldn't live without was Water Mill, but I doubt that it will make the big catty. I'm glad I got it when I did....
None of the other sets really spoke to me, and I still don't get Cool Cat's appeal, even with all of the samples in the gallery (no offense!! no offense!!! (see Heather ducking and running here)).
Of course, that is only my advice, which is probably worth less than you paid for it.....
I absolutely love Fresh Fruits. i bought it because I liked the way it looked, but didn't really have any specific ideas. I find myself using it all the time now! It's so summery, especially when used with Bold Brights. I hope it makes it into the new catty.
I do have Winged Wings and LOVE it! I was thinking that maybe the fruit set would make it into the new catty. Who knows? Balmy Breezes and Alphabits with the punches are a definite I think.
Cool Cat was ok. Not me really. I love retro, but not much of a cat person. :(
I love When I grow up! I just think it is too cute. I think it may make it to the new catty since they retired a few kids-style sets. I have the Winged Things and wheel, Animal alphabet, and Never-Ending Joy (I think it may replace retired Renewed Faith). I'm very happy with my choices from that mini. Plus, my mom is getting Wonderful words II that I'm looking forward to using. Good luck on choosing!
i love the balmy breezes! but i plan on getting fresh fruits for the memo cubes for teachers, maybe even stamp my kitchen too. but i just need to win the lottery!! there is too much i want! :p
I just had to get Wonderful Words II and Cool Cat. I was sitting on the fence with Cool Cat but finally broke down and ordered it this week. I've been getting a lot of use out of WWII though and I'm really glad I ordered it. The forever stamp is great on wedding cards and I've been making lots of those lately.
Wonderful Words II; Cool Cat; Fresh Fruit; Winged Things; Alphabits and the punches
Even it they don't make it into the catalog I will be using them alot on my own personal stamping.

I love Cool Cat and Wonderful Words II. Cool cat is great for young people, cat lovers, and red hatters. Wonderful Words speaks for itself although if I had to choose I'd take Cool Cat because I think words will make it into the new catty too.
Brown is scheduled to come this afternoon (YAY!) with my Spring mini order, which I struggled with because there was too much I wanted. I settled on Balmy Breezes because the stamps will be great for a scrap book I'm making for oldest DD going on a mission trip to South Africa, Winged Things because it complements In Full Bloom and I have seen beautiful cards made with it and Fresh Fruits because it is great for coasters and notecards. It was a tough decision though!

I went to regionals in Atlanta and they were giving away Fresh Fruits as prizes. I was wondering if that meant that it would be in the catalog??????? I am thinking (hoping) YES!!
