Ok now that you've seen the Sale-a-bration catalogue, which set is your favourite? I had my Stamp Club this weekend and it was SO interesting to hear the commentary on all the stamp images. Some were head over heels in love with Feeling Sentimental, others weren't big fans. Same story with Patterned Occasions.
My favorite stamp set is the Pretty Petites with matching punch. I am a sucker for matching punches!! I love those little curly labels!!! I have at least one card in my gallery that I have used this stamp set on. I will be adding more after my stamp class this weekend, weather permitting! (we are supposed to get some of the white stuff! Or ice stuff!!!!)
I love all the stamp sets, I am not crazy about the layout of the catalog but the products are great!!!!!

How do you order from Sale a bration? I can't figure it out. I do only have a iPad, perhaps this is why. But I can't figure out how to order the items I qualify for :-(

I haven't tried making an order from the website during SAB, but do you have a demo that could enter your order for you if it's an ipad issue?
I think Makalah is correct, you may need to go to a demonstrators' online website to place your order. Stampin' Up! really like for their customers to order thru a demonstrator. Is that how you are doing it?

I did go through my demos web site. I will try again tonight. The WiFi I am using right now doesn't let me access the site. The SU site kept kicking me out last night which could have been part of the problem.

I ordered through my demonstrator. And I'm with binkiemonstermom, I just love the Pretty Petites stamp set and Petite Curly label punch.
This of course meant I had to order $120 worth of products, lol. Not that it's hard to find $120 worth of supplies in the SU catalogue; I think my wish list is well over $1000.

That was me, too. I liked it for the artistic look but what I always liked about SU's catalogs was the fact that the stamp sets were pictured and pictured at full scale. I can't stand it when I can't see the real size of things or when a company either doesn't show all the images in the set or have them at a reduced scale. I'm at the point I have so much that I don't really need any other stamps, but if I choose to purchase something, I want to know the true size of the images so I can check if the scale works with what I already have. If I have to work at figuring that out or have to search for all the images or info for a set, then that's telling me I don't need it and will take my money elsewhere.
And thanks to craftymomto2 for the link - makes it so much easier to visualize than SU's artsy version.

Yeah, that part really does kind of puzzle me since the stamps at 100% have been a big deal in the past. I dunno...guess we'll see what happens next year:-)
I did appreciate the humor in the flow chart on the back I have to say. I thought it was clever and funny and I like that. We could all use a laugh or two in our days...or at least I could...now back to work (which is the reason I could use a laugh), ha!
