Sahara Sand & In Color Craft Pads? (Plus other gadgets)

[*brailler*]

Hey, would you all check this out and tell me what you think? In the new catty:
Page 246 #77C-does it say "Buckaroo Blue ... Marigold Morning ... Craft Stampin' Pads?"
Page 247 #98B-does it say "Cool Caribbean Craft Stampin' Pads?"
Page 247 #108B-does it say "Sahara Sand Craft Stampin' Pads?"
Page 250 #146-does it say "Basic Brown Craft Stampin' Pads?"
Page 250 #150B-does it say "Sahara Sand Craft Stampin' Pads?"
Page 251 #173B-does it say "Sahara Sand Craft Stampin' Pads?"
Page 252 #185B-does it say "Marigold Morning Stampin' Write markers?"
Page 252 #189A-does it say "Cool Caribbean Stampin' Write markers?"
Page 254 #219A-does it say "Marigold Morning Craft Stampin' Pads?"
Why does Stampin' Up! list these products if we cannot purchase them from the catty? Will they be available to us to purchase?
Thanks!--Jeannie

Jeannie,

Wow, are you observant! It is hard to tell from the samples if they were made with classic or craft ink. If classic, these are just typo's. If craft, we can speculate. It does appear that markers were used where indicated. I almost wish I were still a demo so I could research this! :rolleyes: I love a good mystery.

I'm with you, Jeannie. I would love to see those items available. I don't get why they would use things we can't sell (or buy). I'm gonna cross my fingers and make a wish. Maybe someday.

Wow! You are very observant! Good for you!! And I'm hoping these items will be available in the future (maybe as a promotion or in a future mini catty), and not an error.

Well if they do become available I think there will be quite a few buyers.

I am not a demoa, so this is just speculation. With the Craft pads, I think because they were scrapbook pages, whoever wrote the descriptions probably assumed they used Craft, since that is what they recommend. I am guessing the catalog examples are made some time before the actual catalog is printed. So maybe they made some markers and then decided not to offer them in the catalog, either not right now or not ever. Again, I am not a demo, so this is just my opinion.

We've been told repeatedly that there will not be markers or craft ink, but I guess that all can change at their will or with demand for product.
