Splitcoaststampers.com - the world's #1 papercrafting community
You're currently viewing Splitcoaststampers as a GUEST. We pride ourselves on being great hosts, but guests have limited access to some of our incredible artwork, our lively forums and other super cool features of the site! You can join our incredible papercrafting community at NO COST. So what are you waiting for?
The top note is my favorite and most used die and nesting sizes would be the best!
This is where I run into problems using only SU products. With my Cricut I can make various sizes of the exact same shape as the Top Note. But of course I can't do that with anything I use in a workshop.
In recent years, SU has been a big trend follower. I think it's safe to say that if you peruse what's hot at Archiver's, then that's what will be big in the new catty.
Expect a big return of vintage and shabby chic, in everything from stamps to accessories.
Expect 6 x 6 paper packs with scaled down design, and matching stickers and accessories.
Expect more flower and button embellishment options.
Expect ways to incorporate sewing into papercrafting...this could mean sewing related stamp sets, flosses in SU colors, paper stitching guides, etc.
Expect retro anything.
Expect more character-themed stamps.
Expect more line art with more options for coloring.
Expect a bigger presence of diecuts, dies, texture plates, and punches.
Expect more pearls, rhinestones, charms, and jewelry-related accessories that can be used in card making.
We'll see if my "predictions" come true soon enough!
Me too!
My daughter lives in a scholarship hall with the llama as their mascot.
She is also historian (scrapbooker) for next year. A llama stamp would be fun.
It does not matter what they have I know they will be getting moolah from me. I am lovin the new cling stamps. They are so much better for storage purposes. I am seriously getting cramped in my stamp room. What I am looking forward to the most is the Christmas stamps. I have so many but I just can't resist them. I save money all year for them.
More punches
More masculine stamps
Outline stamps that go with the Modern Label punch and Curvy Label punch (similar to the PTI fillable frames dies and stamps)
More clear mount stamps
Stamps I can color in (now that I�m on the Copic wagon)
Location: The Volunteer state....beautiful Tennessee!

I noticed how so many of the Halloween stamp sets are retiring, so I'm hoping to see some fun new Halloween stamps.
While I think single stamps are great and a terrific option for the $, I love SU because of the sets. I like to have coordinating stamps for the inside of cards, the envy, etc. I can go to my LSS or anywhere just about on-line to get single stamps.
I also LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the new clear blocks. I think the SU blocks are far better than any others that I've used. I'll be buying the clear sets and hope that all of the new sets are offered in the clear cling.
I love the sets AND the singles. The best singles I like so far are:
1. All a Flutter (this is one of the most beautiful butterfly stamps I have seen in a while). And there are a million butterfly stamps, so good job SU on making this one so special.
2. Birthday Block (I like this one because it is a positive sentiment and I think it will make the person smile and feel good when they read it).
3. Happy Grad ( I love the phrases underneath).
Well I hope they drop their Canadian prices because they are absolutely ridiculous. For comparison purposes the smooch spritz's in the current mini are $2 more each than they are my local scrapbooking store - for the EXACT same thing and that's before the crazy 10% s&h.
I'd love another peak at the catalog though - I lost the peak that was sent to me (although it did have an amazing Paris/amour vintage set that I WILL be buying If anyone has a link, please send it to me.
I would love something that is hugely adaptable, like with bigz dies like the Tim Holtz ones. OOO how awsome would that be if Tim Holtz got together with sizzix AND SU (Dreaming I know lol)
Most of my wish list was included in Maryrose's post.
I'd like to add some scripture sentiment stamps and images.
Sentiments for the 50+ crowd. NOT pics of really OLD people like some of the other companies. Something for all of my friends that are having knees replaced or other surgery.
Love anything Shelli designs for the Big Shot!

Please do share the link if anyone has it. I am dying of curiosity!!!

Perhaps they need a set with a lounge, a TV, a computer, a can of beer and a game controller. :neutral:
I actually have a stamp with this image. Its a man lounging in a lounge chair, clicking the remote, and sorrounded by newspaper, can of beer, chips, tv guide. I bought it at LSS years ago.
I love "Elements of Style". Just ordered it at my last card party. I'm with everyone on the masculine stamps though. They had some great truck, car & motorbike sets in the past which should make a comeback. Plus more sports,music & outdoors, not cutsey or feminine.

Reason: Need to post the message it is related to.
I definitely would like to see more masculine stamp sets. They also need sets geared towards teenaged boys and guys who don't hunt, fish, and live in the great outdoors.
I'm loving the exclusive Sizzix dies and folders and the new slimline, locking punches. I'd love to see more of those. Or better yet, the new style punch in some of the old favorites.
I'm hoping there are no new flowery or vintagey stamps. Enough's enough. Like really, am I the only one who thought that Elements of Style was just a rehash of Spring Song?

I'd love the link, too. This time it has become much harder to get it. I understand wanting to save it til the grand launch, but, wow! so much anticipation and curiosity is getting to me!

NCS--very funny--I LOVE IT!!!
I think a computer themed set is a GREAT idea! I would so use those stamps. I'm looking forward to being able to buy my stamps unmounted this year. I would also like a better golf set.

If anyone were to pm me the link to the new catty, I wouldn't tell a soul. Pinky promise. Pleeeeease?!
I am leaving for a mission trip with the youth group and would really like to look at it a little before I go.

Not only are we not allowed to but there is NO link yet. It has not been posted and my guess is it will not be until july 1. There are only hard copies out to demos. Sorry! Maybe call your demo and see if she has hers and you can look at it.
I got a sneak peak at the new catty, and I'll tell you one thing in there that I must have. It's a large scallop punch; it mats perfectly with the current scallop punch. Only 15 more days to go till we can have our very own copies of the catty!

Got my new catty last night from my demo. I have looked at it some and here are my opinions: 1-like the new dsp. I like so many of them it will be hard to narrow down which ones to buy. 2-like the new colors--I know I'm a convert from my original shock of so many retiring. I will be more selective in adding the colors though; unlike last time when I had to have them all and had to have them quickly! 3- like the new designer printed albums but they only come in post and I'm a ring girl so won't be buying those. 4-like the punch caddies but no way can I afford to change out all my punches so I'll just keep the old style ones. 5-like the large scallop circle and scallop ribbon border punch. BIGGEST DISSAPOINTMENT-Many returning sets which are still only available in wood. I love the new clear stamps and will only buy the stamps in clear now which means there won't be many stamp purchases in my future. That's probably a good thing seeing as I have so, so many stamps already. I was like several other folks, really hoping for more new stamp sets. Oh well...now to wait on the new mini!!!!

did anyone leak out the link to the new catty yet???
Sorry...but there is no link to leak. The only way to see it is to look at the actual catalog, which demos now have or should have. No link will be posted until the catalog goes live on July 1st.

There is no reason for a link after July 1 the reason for a link is a sneak peak we sometimes (most often) get it with a min catalogue so why can we not hope for a link to the main catty?
I think it is a recruiting policy of SU to try to get more demos so we can all get sneak peaks (trying to be funny here) I still think it is strange that we the bu ying public are not allowed to see what we potential might like to have. I know, I know, we are building excitement for the new "Bible" as my husband calls it. Most their customers are demos My demo is leaving. She does not have enough customers. I do not think it going to change much if customers get a sneak peak. We are all addicted anyway.

I can't remember if they posted a link before July last year or not but there isn't one as far as I know yet. Now, MY thoughts on this are that they won't because for us demos to get our catty we need place a demo order on or after June 1. Now, if they posted the link everyone could see it and then a lot might not order, KWIM? AND I'd be PO'd if I spent a wad of money and paid the wad of extra shipping to get my catty fast (Not that I would do something like that right.....LOL) and then it gets posted, again KWIM? I guess it's just the way they do it, they surely have some kind of marketing reasoning behind it.....now, where is my catty:-)
