I really like the new in colors, matching ribbon, new paper and punches. But as far as stamp sets are concerned, my wish list looks exactly the same as last time. The only stamp sets I want were in last year's catty. I really hope the next mini has a holiday set I like, because I didn't like any of the new Christmas sets this year.
Another disappointment was the background stamps. I don't like any of the new ones. But I guess I can't complain too much because there are still three of them from the previous catalog that I still want.
I agree that the samples in this catalog were gorgeous, and I really got some great ideas this time around. And did I say I really, really like the new in colors?!

From the cover to the index, I think SU has got it goin' on!!!
The way the catty is laid out with the coordinating accessories along the botton of the page, the little blurbs with the "tips" and "don't miss it" the little pictures above the ink pads, markers, etc. is AWESOME!!!
I love the photography of the samples, SU has the best in the business, no catalog can compare to it.
Do I love every stamp set, no, but there are plenty that I will be getting and accessories, I need them all!!!!
My vote is lovin' the new catty:p
I'm right there with ya!! :p I love the new look, the new accessories and I'm really loving all the new greetings/sayings stamp sets... and the new backgrounds. My absolute favorite is Define Your Life on page 159.
I didn't LOVE every single set in the catalog but then I've never seen an SU catalog that I did. There are enough sets that I do really like that it will keep me busy over the next 6 months!
I think the "style watch" section is so cool and all the new features are great. They really out-did themselves this time!!
My LSS has this set.... I keep putting it in my basket and then changing my mind..... Not sure why... maybe I'm afraid of getting it in a perfect circle. I may have to pick it up next time I go. Thanks for reminding me about that set.

I, too, only found one set that I couldn't live without. Of coures, that's probably because I have over 125 SU sets and some singles. I am a little pickier. I do wish they would have had some better Christmas sets but I have several of those. Maybe I'll go back and reuse.

Hi Carol
Don't want to tell you how many sets I have would boggle ones mind. I too am being a little more pickier than I was before becaause I am running out of room and just can't seem to let go of my older sets. The accessories this time in the Su catty are mind boggling, just have to get them.Have a good day
I wasn't overly impressed either, but still managed to spend $200.00. I like the new IN COLORS and the color combos they had on the examples...that river rock, blue bayou thing is HOT! No sets really jumped out at me, other than BAROQUE MOTIFS which is on backorder:mad: (but that's a whole nuther thread!)
I like the build-a-brad idea....of course they are not available either and what happened to the VINTAGE section? Shabby chic cowboy is so played out.....along with mod simplicity. I hope the next catty has more to offer.
I am very dissapointed in the new catty. It is all cutsie stuff, and LOTS OF CIRCLES, I LIKE CIRCLES, BUT HOW MANY CIRCLE SETS DO WE NEED?. I didn't see very many classic type sets. They mostly seem to be whimsy. I hope this is not the new trend in su style. I know I sound a negative, but I really am dissapointed. I do feel however, that they did a nice job with their word sets. What do you all feel about those?

I too am disappionted with the stamp part of the catty but I did manage to find only about four stamp sets I really liked. I fell in love with the accessories part of the catty tho, I feel they did good there. The papers, rhinesstones, ribbon are to die for.
