I let my consultant status with CTMH drop (was only a hobbiest and my own best customer) so I don't have any inside knowledge. I did read some interesting tidbits on the Facebook updates from convention:
1. New Idea book has more pages and is now a slightly different size!
2. They now have an exclusive Close To My Heart CRICUT Cartridge!
That will be interesting to see. I didn't read any pricing for it as of yet. It doesn't appear they'll be selling the actual machine itself though.
3. B&T Duos� papers are changing, too! Now in a heavier cardstock-weight, they also include a designed zip strip across the top of each paper.
4. The price of stamp sets is dropping! An A-size is only $6.95 US/$7.75 CAN, a B-size set is only $9.95/$10.95, a C-size is only $13.95/$15.50, and a D-size set is a remarkable $17.95/$19.95. Don�t forget the E-size; it�s $29.95/$33.50!
A price drop is a nice thing. I'm disappointed the pricing for Canadians hasn't gotten closer together. Just like the thread on SU Canadian pricing, many people feel they're being gouged. I can understand higher shipping costs but the product price should be closer than this since the Canadian dollar has been at par, and even over par, a lot of the time.
These are the few new things that jumped out at me.

My consultant is at convention and what you have posted is what she had told me. The only fact she told me was the Cricut Cartridge is designed to work with CTMH stamps. This really excites me. I can't wait. I will post more when she updates me.
I recently dropped my CTMH demoship too. I am excited to see what the new catty looks like. Thanks for the hints! Please share more if you know anything else!!
For those that want to see the book early, I just read in the FB comment section that the new price to sign up with CTMH is $99 (probably the US price and a tad more for Canadians).

Thanks for the info, I also let my consultant status drop and I miss seeing the catty early Wonderful news about the stamp price drop! And I'm curious about the Critcut cartridge too
The price for the Cricut Art Philosophy Collection is $99 which includes the cartridge, 3 D-size stamps sets, and 3 sheets of coordinating Dimensional Elements.
My demo was a big meanie on Saturday and said "I have a catalog for you, it's awesome, but I can't give it to you until August 1st." I am quite anxious to see the what's new for Christmas this year.

There is mention on an earlier post of the retiring items - will any of these leftovers go to the clearance section on their website? I love CTMH but find the prices are right up there. Would love to get some product at a clearance price.
