I guess I am a loner here because one of the stamps that I want/need/must have is Abundant Hope. Mainly because of the gorgeous daffodils. They are the most "real" flowers so beautifully done in a long long time.
Course, there are other things I want/need/must have but that is what I am going for first.
I have to agree with Lyssa too about the rhinestones. My customers ask for these all the time, never ever thought we would get them.
I do agree with a couple of previous posters about the satin ribbon. I love that satin ribbon and to get it in 9 colors is awesome.
Ah, that satin ribbon is to die for... I would be hard put to give up my taffeta BUT the satin is just deliciously yummy and smooth and it ties so NICE!
And it dyes like a dream, too. Great not to have to die all those colors, though.

I got my preorder yesterday...the new bird punch is awesome. I ordered 9 new sets of stamps all the clear mount option, new papers, new wheels...all yummy stuff. I will order the balance after 1/1/2010
blessings.
I'm drooling over ALOT, but mostly the accessories. I do think I need that new heart set,unmounted of course! the papers, the punches, and the satin ribbon-YUM-O! oh, and the red corduroy buttons, felt pieces and chipboard shaped mini albums, cute stuff! it's the first time in 6 years I am buy as a customer and not a demo, so I need to make sure I have a different mind set when it comes to ordering! OH, and I love the punch option as a SAB choice.
I have some sneak peeks on my blog and in the gallery here...I'm waiting for clarification on whether I can show the actual products rather than just my projects...
My 9 yr stamping DD is TOTALLY excited for Totally Tess......MY DD's NAME IS TESS!!! She can't WAIT to get it !! Everything else....pretty cute....nice paper. I didn't see the satin ribbon, must go back and peek at that!!

Oh, how cute. She will love it. We're all hoping there will be an accessories set for that one... I want a cute little Big Shot, a catalog, coffee cup, a bunch of shopping bags, etc to go with her!

I have the new mini....it is a very good one. There is a new punch (I have not read this thread,..so this may already be covered) that is super cute! On my list for sure. Lot's of new fresh patterned paper, also.
The stamps are a nice mix of different styles. imho.
My favs are
1. new bird and branch punch
2.Valentine-ish DSP
3. stamp set that goes with above DSP
I got a sneak peek tonight at my demo's house. There is some cute stuff and some neat ideas...I didn't fall off my chair though KWIM? That said, I will order one or two things from it...I always do!
if you hate SU! or hated the mini please keep that to yourself and move on... i'd like to keep this on a possitive note!
what are you drooling for from the mini catalog?!
i really want...
the small heart punch
well scripted
messages for mom
tote-ally tess (she is adorable! i just love her paraphernalia!)
like-o-meter (too too cute!)
i am sure there will be more but that is a start!
the last mini really 'socked it to me'! i have never ordered so much from a mini before. i think that SU! really upped their game with this last one. plus it was bigger than normal too i think!
so anyway... what do you want?! huh huh?
Michelle I did not know there was a new mini yet! I am excited to see it and hopefully I will have one sent to me.
I am looking for some new images for Valentine's Day.....are there any good ones?
Okay, I just looked at the PDF from the link above.....
Garden from the Heart (appeals to the gardener and colorist in me)
Well Scripted
Abundant Hope (Gorgeous line image to color!!)
Messages for Mom
Chocolate Bunny
Border punches
Chipboard Books (just so similar to Maya Road)

Isn't that that the truth about how nice the satin ribbon ties. I used the chocolate satin with the Christmas dsp to wrap the gifts I made for my club members and the bows all turned out so beautiful with no struggle whatsoever....lol.
The great thing is, it got all the members excited about all the satin ribbon that is coming in all the colors. I am with you, I will still use the taffeta ribbon when narrower ribbon is need because I love it too.
I wish I lived in the US right now. I wasn't so thrilled with the sets in our Summer Mini, and then to see all the fantastic stuff in your catalogue (& that's just what I've managed to see on Splitcoast)!!!!! Love Vintage Vogue, Well Scripted, Garden from the Heart, My Matryoshka.... We did get 'Something Sweet' which is so cute, esp with the cups to go with it. We are finally getting the Big Shot next April, which has caused untold excitement.
Enjoy all your goodies!

I've gotten into satin ribbon because Wal-Mart really has some pretty nice wide satin ribbon, but the being able to get certainly celery and some of the other colors will really rock!

Isn't it great that this mini is released at the same time as SAB???? Then you can buy what you want from the mini and get FREE SAB stuff!! :-) That's the best thing about this mini, IMO.
I will wait for SAB for the rest another 250 order at least since I didn't order some stamp sets and now I will want them after what I saw in the gallery. So maybe a 350 order.
I love the punches and paper and the ribbon, buttons etc I have to have it all and I mean my won't get list is way small than my must have list.

Oh, I am so THRILLED for you. Take my advice and get it right away, rather than waiting on the fence for months like I did. It is incredibly awesome, you will not believe what all you can do with it. Mine recently broke (user error) and I was without one for six days while SU sent me another one pronto (yay!) and I could not believe how much I missed that thing. I literally use it almost every single day in some way or another.

I totally agree with you! And, even better for me, Jan is my month to be hostess in a hostess club! So while everyone else is reaping the SAB rewards, I will be getting great stuff from the new mini, SAB rewards and hostess rewards! I am really excited for our January meeting!
OMG..... Is my check book in trouble, have to have a lot of the items in the new mini. I am so excited, can't wait.
Cottonwood, stampin granny60! My brother lived in Cottonwood for several years until recently! Lovely place...
'K, hijack over, lol! It is difficult to resist, yes...I have a pre-order coming tomorrow, but only a very small one, lol... I'm trying to wait for most of it so my purchases can count towards SAB earnings myself! ;) I can't even begin to decide what I'm the most excited for.

To be honest most of the stuff in this mini didn't reach out and grab me like almost everything in the Holiday mini...BUT I didn't give cold and cuddly a second look and then I HAD to have it! The same is beginning to ring true for this one...unfortunately for my savings account!!!!
I loved the milk carton die, Fox and Friends, small heart punch and the heart stamp set and matching wheel. Oh and the polka dot folder (I want MORE lots more folders). I like a lot of other products too but am waiting for SAB time for a large order in early Jan. AND my list keeps growing (loving stuff after seeing it on blogs), the more I look at stuff the more I want! The Mom set is really growing on me, I noticed the catty examples and really liked them!
And now I didn't think I liked the sweet pea felt or the DSP and now seeing people use and now I think I really like it! Eek....I may have to cut back on Christmas shopping and save for Jan, hahahaha.

I love the felt flowers, etc they are offering. And such a good price. I've looked everywhere for decent felt...Archivers, Mikes, Hobby Lobby, online and have only found quality felt cut-outs from SU.

That's good to know! I haven't bought any elsewhere in ages, you get such a good deal on the Felt Flowers from SU... but I remember a long time ago getting some from somewhere that left a stain on my scrapbook page... I can't think that that was good for my photos--eeek!

There are a bunch I want, but I really like the set with the raccoon, etc. And I love the new unmounteds. What a marvelous and simple idea to adhere the pic on the back. Wish all of the other companies did that. And that bird punch is adorable. I really am pleased that SU is offering options now.

I have seen some of the unmounteds and I really, really like them. The cases are really nice. And, the insert is really nice too. It even has the images printed on the spine. If you store your unmounted in binders, as I do, the SU cases would be really great for storing other things. The image labels seem nice too.
