I just gave my demo a pile of cash and a huge order so that she can pop it in first thing this morning! I am ashamed of myself...I pigged out!
I ordered too much to tell you about, but some of the stamps i ordered are:
Word-by-Word
heartfelt thanks
Natural Beauty
Ageless Adornments (I waited all year for this!)
BOTH large alphabets
Cluck
Autumn leaf prints
Gorgeous Grapevine
Bareback...
Well I just received my new catalog this morning from my wonderful demo! I have only gone through it a couple of times...but so so far I am going to purchase:
Classic Spots-New Colors
Word by Word
Heartfelt Thanks
Curvy Verses
Twill Tape
Cardstock- Handsome Hunter, So Saffron, Bravo Burgundy, Elegant Eggplant, and Sahara Sand. I probably will get the rest later...but these are a sure thing for now.
The Merry Mini's on page 53 are a good possibility too. I think they would be great for making tags for Christmas.
Now to go back to looking.....

Oh I just have to say how much I love the new catty...........I can see lots of money going here. (LOL) But, to start with........just stamps not accessories..........

>Some like it hot

>Land that I Love
>Georgous Grapevine
I have to admit that my first order is going to include old sets - Canvas & Itty Bitty Backgrounds. Plus some ink & paper. Beyond that, I'm still deciding.
Little Pieces
All About U
Tidy Alphabet
ohhh...and the Certainly Celery paper...a big ol' pack of that delicious colour!
And then there are the accessories: Pockets and Pieces, twill tape and best of all...the Hodgepoge Hardware...ohhh the things I can make with that!! [not to mention just the container all the little bits come in!]
Good thing my DH hasn't seen my list!!
I'm absolutely drooling over LOTS of stamp sets, but the first one on my order form is LITTLE PIECES (p. 171) and then I'm going for LABEL CLASSICS (p. 171). These sets are very versatile. And then, of course, I'm going for all of the new color ink pads, card stock, etc....
Sincere Salutations because I need a set like that
Loads of Love and Accessories
1 or 2 BG stamps (choosing from Fine Lace, Weathered, or Crosshatch)
at least one alphabet (more to follow later)
Heartfelt Thanks
Perfect Petals
I still want to get Pines and Everyday Flexible Phrases, and there's still at least 2, maybe 3 sets from the summer mini I need, though I may have to narrow that down to one. I really want Backyard BBQ.
I also want to get a Hodgepodge Hardware, Twill Tape, and the Clear buttons, and there's 4 different ribbons on my list. I'm also really liking those wheel storage containers, I'm tired of my wheels rolling all over my drawer.
Yikes! I haven't even gotten into all the paper, new ink pads, and craft spots yet. Obviously this won't all go on my first order. I just pray that I don't like anything in the upcoming mini catalogs, but after the last two, I'm not feeling very good about this. At least I have a year to spread all these items out.
I do not have a catty yet but I must have all the new cardstock.
I sat down and figured it out .... if I purchase all of the new color items ONLY (ink pads, refills, cartridges, markers, 8 1/2 x 11 cardstock) .... the total would come to around $385 ... and that is not counting 12 x 12 cardstock or the new color wheel! Good thing we can space it out over time.
BTW I've decided to forget making color charts again! I've made 5 different types of charts over the years and plan on using one - that I paid someone else to make for less than $3.
It is mind boggling how much can be spent with no effort at all!
My first choices for stamps are:
Flower Filled
Computer Quips
Heartfelt Thanks
Wonderful Weaves
Little Pieces
Elegant Inspirations
Fine Lace BG
Word by Word BG
The list is lengthy - as you all can well understand.
I added up all the sets that I wanted that are new.omg.my hb will divorce me if I bought it all.Must be a round 500.00 or more.for all the sets that I want some from the last catalog it came out to around 1100.00.that doesn't include paper and assessories.
__________________ WHAT IS A STAMPPIN ADDICT!
It's someone who buys stamps they didn't normally like at first,only to see it in Split Coast Stampers gallery in a different perspective.
It's Friday, July 1st. I'm a demo IN Utah and I STILL don't have my new catty!!!!! I am absolutely freaking out! I have gone out and hunted down my mailman for three days straight (he probably thinks I'm mental!) and I intend to go do it AGAIN as soon as I get off SCS.
ANYONE ELSE OUT THERE WHO STILL DOESN'T HAVE THEIR CATTY EITHER???? :mad:
It's a bunch of words in rectangles put together to form the background stamp shape. Some words are long & narrow. Others are short & taller. But the differences in height are really not big. Some of the words are all capital letters & some are all lowercase. Does that make sense? The words are: giggle, share, laugh, pals, pleasure, happiness, joy, merry, delight, friendship, glee, cheer, enjoy, kindness, smile, funny, grin, heartfelt, affection, love, bliss & sweet.
Oh my, this background stamp sounds awesome, as do many of the other stamp sets and scrapbook accessories! I am depressed because I will not get my new catty until the new catalog kick-off party I am attending next Friday. Boo hoo, I don't think I can wait that long! :(
All the new inks & cardstocks
It's Your Birthday
At The Races (my son is buying this fer me!!!) He likes Nascar!
Balmy Breezes
Ruff Day
and possibly...

Always on my mind
Computer Quips (for da DH,,,he's a computer geek)

AND
Much Appreciated
Phew!!! I think I've broke my piggy bank on these orders!! LOL

My demo is not getting her catalogs until next week. I'm just about to burst, cannot wait to see it. But I'm sure it will be worth the looooooooooooooong wait.
I want so many it's hard to narrow it down but in my first order will probably be: Canvas, Knobbly Gnomes and the Size It Up Stampin Around wheel.
Gotta limit myself, I still want stuff out of the summer mini too.
I LOVE that set, as soon as my catty came and I opened it I was crying from laughing and screaming at this set. I know I will be making lots of cards with it.
I just loved the accessories for this set. I can't wait to order it.
The colors were my top priority:
New Colors Pastels
Assorted Bold Brights
Assorted Earth Elements
Assorted Rich Regals
Assorted Soft Subtles
Craft Stampin Spots Soft Subtles
Craft Spots Rich Regals
(Combined with the old items I already have I'll have pastels and paper in every color and ink in every color but 2! Since I only had one color craft ink pad I'm thrilled to be able to order the spots and get so many colors for embossing and scrapbooking.)
He�s Too Cool � Scrappin Kit (for SIL who just found out she's havin' a boy!)
Had to have some new rubber to go with the new colors:
Wonderful Weaves
Stencil Alpha (love LetterPress but that was too big of chunk out of my $$ right now)
Computer quips (for DH - and a bunch of other guys!)
