I always love the new catalog, lol! It's just fun to see what's new, what comes back, and all the samples. I always end up noticing a set or two I either didn't pay attention to or didn't like in the previous catalog due to the new samples. There are less MUST have's this time for me but with a reduced budget and reduced stamp time I'm ok with that and I'm sure once people start posting stuff my list will grow….happens every year!
I've looked mine over a few times and added stickies to the pages with items on my wish list. It's a shorter list than the last few years, but I do have to say that the items I like, I really like.
Way many products on my 'must have" vs my "like" list.
I quite like the new catty, too. Not a tonne of must haves, but that is partly because there are things they carried over from the Occasions catty that I already bought. I admit, I find that a little annoying. I wish they'd release the carryover info sooner.
I love the new catty as well. Have a long wish list!!!! My biggest joy in the new catalog each year, is seeing what new "boy" stamp set they have. I have three boys so I use a ton of boy appropriate images. I am so excited about the new dino stamp set!!! LOVE it!!!!
does anyone know where that little butterfly on the front of the catalog comes from? I can't find a doctor or a punch in the book. Maybe it's part of stickers or project life. I'll go back in and look but if anyone knows for sure please let me know. Thanks
I just finished looking through it and my wish list is so long! I LOVE this catalog. It has a wonderful mix of styles. And the samples are a great mix, too.....some CAS and others more detailed. I am so happy to see Mint Macaron. It reminds me of Sage Shadow and I must adored that color. Paired with Tip Top Taupe, it will be gorgeous! And the butterfly stamps are beautiful, too!
I love the candy dots they added to the color collections; except for in colors, that was disappointing.
What candy dots were added to this catalog? I can only find the ones that were there before and I think they are fun! I only have the regals so far but plan to get more!

I don't think there are any new candy dots. Those have been around for at least the last catalog if not more. They were never in the in colors thought. I wished they were!
There are some new white accents kind of like candy dots in various sizes. I'm intrigued by those!
I'm very happy to see that Whisper White will be offered on 100-lb. weight. I have other brands of heavy white card stock for bases, but I really like how ink stamps on WW. I also like the new In Colors a lot. Last year's palette skewed too much to the Regals collection, my least favorite and lesser used colors.
I hope that future catalogs offer new stamps in all three options: wood, clear mount, and photopolymer like in the Occasions catalog. Photopolymer is always my first choice, and especially for sentiments.

I'll bet you could color those with the blendabilities to match card stock! I got all the markers before they pulled the line.

Now that I have a Misti, photopolymer is my first choice too.

Kathy ~ Are your blendabilities working okay? Out of the three sets I bought, I am returning two of them for not working properly. Be sure to check yours out. I hope they are fine.
