I'm just tired of waiting and want to see it for myself
Me, too. I'm tryin' to keep busy with other things. My hubs came home last night and for one brief instant I jumped up, thinkin' it was the UPS truck delivering those 4 cases I pre-ordered.
Hubs walked in, and said, "What? You're not happy to see ME??????" :rolleyes:
ROTFL! He knows I've been waiting . . . chuckle!

I refuse to read any of it; I want the ultimate new catty orgasm and by golly, I shall have it. With two appletinis on the side. ;)

At least most of you guys have your demo near and can get the catty sooner. I'll have to make do with the online version until god knows when *sobbing*

There's some new sets. 2 sets have a couple stamps in them I like, but I won't buy the whole set just for 1 or 2 stamps. But everyone has different tastes. You might love these new sets
My demo is on vacation in another state and I won't see the catty until my party on July 8!!!! Can someone tell me if there are any new spiritual Christmas and spiritual Easter sets?

City of David is a nice set. Simple drawings. Two images. One general verse and Luke 2:11.
Not thrilled with any new Christmas sets.
Love the Pirate set and wheel.

Because of You.
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!! SU has definitely outdone themselves once again!!!! I love the samples, the stamp sets, the accessories, the layout, ALL OF IT!!!!!!!! Can't you tell I'm excited?
Love the cover...it really is impressive looking...bit disappointed that so many sets were retired and there doesn't seem to be as many new ones added...way cute background stamps though...not much ribbon...disappointed, too, like the others about the hodgepodge kit not being offered individually...disappointed that the chalks can't be individually ordered as well...STILL waiting for a Mardi Gras set :(

My demo gave me a copy yesterday and I'm not overwhelmed by the stamp sets. But I do like the designer paper and the new colors. Going to definitely get the new inks and paper.
Fayp if you go into annoucements thread you will see a post called want to see what's in the new su catalog.this first post has a list of what sets made it into the mini catalog.
Thanks a bunch Lisa62! Going to check it out while dinner is cooking!

LOVE IT!!!!!!! The cover is fabulous, the hostess sets are incredible, the card and scrapbook examples are to die for!! The new colors are going to be tons of fun. And could the new designer papers be any prettier??!!! I must say the wait was well worth it, almost!!!!
I just got mine, my demo drove over with the unopened box so we could look together! (She's my daughter)...I love it! I wasn't overly excited about last year's, but there is so much in this one that I MUST (and will) have!!
Of course I licked the catalogue when I picked it up! ;) :P ;)
J/K though....I do really like everything in it and since I am kinda new to this, I didn't have the last catalgue memorized, but I do recognize some of the sets prior and all that....but all in all I think it's a fantastic catalogue. The demo-lady gave me a TON of back issue mini cattys to peruse and some old cattys from the past couple years....so I have lots of pretties to look at tonight.
Just got mine today! SERIOUSLY IMPRESSED! I think it's great. I love so many of the new sets, I definitely won't run out of things to buy for the next year. I think they did a great job - and I've only looked through it once!
I AM impressed! I was pretty uninspired by the last catty just because there were so many sets that were already in the minis and hostess sets. This is full of fun! I think there is little bit of something for everyone. (My demo gave us ours tonight at stamp club, but I won't spoil the surprise by telling anything else.)
All I can say is that I will be up with the lamp on by my bed tonight making stickys!
I have to agree! I was very impressed with this catty and was also uninspired by the last one. This one has such great color combs for the samples. I love the new brads, buttons and ribbons. I am also very inspired by the new colors!
This one is a real hit in my book. (No pun intended)
I have not seen it but it doesn't matter if I am not impressed, because over the year I will become impressed. Sets that I never dreamed of liking will become favorites. I can count on it. I did not like last years catalog but I now own many of the sets from it. I could not see all the hoopla over Heartfelt Thanks but it grew on me and now is one of my staple sets. Sooooo, I better start saving my money! The only thing I am disappointed in is the increase in some pricing. Shows the truth about the economy! This company made record profits last year so I find it a bit much that they increased costs to consumers.
That's how I am, too! Once I start seeing the examples made by other SCS'ers, I'll know what sets I will want to get.
got mine tonight! stayed up til now (2:25 a.m.) taking it all in and i love it!! i think the cover is beautiful (love the paper pattern on it). also, i really like the way it's organized into sections. i saw a lot of new stamps i know i'm going to want. and annabelle, you are so right! i'm going to want ones i don't even know right now that i want. lol. one of you wonderful artists is going to make a gorgeous card using a set i thought i didn't like and 'bingo', all of a sudden it's something i have to have. scs has really taught me to see things in a different light and to not judge too quickly whether i like something or not. my husband stood in the doorway of my craftroom the other night and said 'do you have any idea how much money you have tied up in your craft stuff?' and i said 'no...' and he said 'do you want to know?' and i smiled and said 'no....' i'm not going to tell him i just got a new catalogue..... ;)
I know how you feel about the husband in the doorway of the craft room, LOL!! :-D I cringe everytime mine does that, then I just hope he won't come in and actually look around. Just stay in the doorway dear.....

I get to pick mine up tomorrow morning from my demo. I plan on looking at it for our 5 hour drive to the lake on Friday. Oh, who am I kidding. I'll be looking at it all day tomorrow plus the drive. LOL
If you were wanting to order stampin kids markers you better do it before fri. because they have gone up in price by $4 for Canadians. And if you were really wanting espress yourself you probably should order it because the set that they replaced it with just is kinda... whatever. Maybe I'll have to borrow it from someone first. I just feel really disappointed in what they've offered us this year. On the bright side the prices are lower on a lot of the stamp sets in the Canadian Catty!

Blahh, you are all making me so jealous! i live in Athens, Ga, and watching the window for any signs of the UPS man! I am a demo, ordered 2 cases! still no cattys! Maybe soon... :( I leave for vacation tomorrow! yikes! I don't want to have to wait 2 weeks until i get back!

~Shhh.. Luckily, my husband thinks I only have 'a few' stamp sets...
So, with all this talk, does anyone know how many new sets are in the new catty, VS. how many were retired? I would look, but have no new catty yet...I would really like to know this, though...
Oh my I just got back from my Demos house and we went page by page and I am SO LOVING THIS CATTY it is by far the best ...the samples were so awesome.....I love the new papers and so happy about the camping stamp and wheel! I have a list....and its long! I feel bad that we all can't open it at the same time ...that would be so cool! Ladies....its worth the wait!!!!

I feel your pain; I pre-ordered, too. Today's post came, no catty. No Mr. Brown came . . . sigh . . . :(
Two years ago I was on vacation in Corona, CA, visiting my little sister, when it was released (Convention was in Orlando at that time), but a sweet demonstrator in Corona let me come to her house and buy one from her! :mrgreen:
From that moment I got it in my hands, it was quite a few hours before I took my eyes off it and gave anything else the time of day . . . eek! My sister, bless her heart, understood . . . :oops: chuckle!

Funny, the one thing I DIDN'T care for in this gorgeous new catalog was the color combos on the samples. Way too "retro" for my taste. But I love the new papers, accessories and especially the new jumbo wheels.
I am much more impressed with this year's catalog than last year's.....My wish list consists mainly of WHEELS.....There are some awesome wheels in this catalog, let me tell you. The hostess sets are WAY better. Some other nice sets too but more for the "cutesy" part of me - I didn't find any that I like as much as Heartfelt Thanks or Petal Prints or Watercolor Garden II. I need to look more and "study" it but all in all a great catalog. Oh, I almost forgot - I really don't care for the new coffee set, I was kinda disappointed. Guess I'll get a retired one on the buy/sell/trade instead!
My favorite must have is Stinkin Cute. I ran over to my friend's house tonight to pick up my catalog and literally kissed the air next to my husband and picked up the kid and ran out the door have already completely looked through it 3 times.
