Wanna know what's in the new SU catalog?

[michlz319]

Got this from a member of a Yahoo group:

Got this from a thread on SCS ~ Canada has started to receive their catties & this is what has been written.......(I don't have one so I am just reading what everyone else has said...I don't have any other specifics) ~

COVER---Rich Regals/Earth Elements colors
The colours look like Mellow Moss, Chocolate Chip and one of the softer reds - Ruby?

looks like spring and the punch....yes
fairy nice--no
simply said--yes, and two matching wheels!
love notes--no
envelopes in packs of 20 for some and 40 for some, they look nice

background stamps---new ones--
fontastic.....mixed up letters
a new paisley----yeah!!!
aida cloth
dotted (shaded dots---pretty nice)
linen
on the spot
wild hearts (little teeny hearts and leaves on vines)
flannel plaid---love it!
well-worn words...just lovely, flowers and words with a reverse print look
word search--like the puzzle

lots of big alphabets, old and new:

headline, well worn, letterpress, big deal (big letters in small print, ie not caps) and "mod"--small letters inside a circle...

Neutral colour watercolour wonder crayon pack

spring flowers and spring showers paper

nice new punch shapes, ovals, smaller squares and circles to go with the bigger sizes,

new brads...in colour families

new fibers....hardly any organdy ribbon, still grosgrain but lots of new patterned ribbon, in a package of assorted patterns.....

NEW PUNCHES, New tag punch kit--different shape

Mini sets that made the catalog.

Thank you so much. It sounds awesome. I'm so excited!

Can't wait!

[Lauraly]

Thank you sooo much! I've been looking everywhere for any information! Every year I think that "I can wait" and I'll be waaaay more mature about it...and then like clockwork, a week or two before it comes I start acting like my impatient 2 1/2 year old son! Arghhh!

Again...thanks so much for passing this info on!

Since it's posted, may as well be correct. Edited OP.

[SCEmily]

OMG!!! Monkey Business!!! I'm really sad that I don't have any chance of getting sage advice though. =(

Can't wait - I want that catalog - patience is not a virtue of mine.

I am wrong! Sorry guys!! BLUSH!!

[kerrym38]

I am a former demo, and I don't recall any rule that prohibits non-demos knowing in advance what is in the catalog. I don't think there is anything wrong or anything violated by her posting the info.

Thanks for posting it!!! It's nice to have a sneak preview. It's only a portion anyway - you can bet there are a LOT of other new stamp sets and accessories that weren't posted about. We'll still all have a great surprise - plus none of us knows what any of this looks like. We only read about it, we didn't see actual images.

Let's not turn this into an "us against them" thing. The information has been shared, and we must remember that customers are just as excited as demonstrators are. . . .and that is exactly what we should have! Lots of excitement!

[krystie lee]

I agree with kerrym, I am a demo and have no problem with these little spoilers. If your customers are so hard-core that they're obsessively searching out info about the new catty, they're going to buy plenty of product anyway! I think all this anticipation and buzz can only be good for business.

Keep the info coming!

Just an FYI...I am NOT a demo. This was already posted on SCS, I simply cut and pasted it into a different link. I stated in the beginning that it was not my information. I have not seen a catalog.
I wasn't trying to cause a controversy, so I will not respond to any other negative posts, nor defend posting it after this email.
I am glad others have enjoyed the information.

AMEN!! I am a demo too, but was unable to get into the demo only site because I have not joined the group yet and I know my customers are excited as I am about the new catalog and who cares if anyone knows?! No one can order from it until July 1st! Besides, it's always fun to actually see that big beautiful catty come in full color to your door!!;)

So let the excitement begin! Thanks for all those sharing info!! It also helps demos like me that don't have the info yet!! So clap your hands together you all!! They're coming!!!

Thanks for correcting the post. This information was from another source who has a catalog, otherwise I would have checked it myself.

[vcr]

Thank you so much for posting this sneek peak. I to believe it is a good idea to give us non-demos a little taste. Just gets us that much more excited for that catty to get in our hot little hands. With this little bit of news, I have started my wish list already. We'll just be able to get our first orders into our demos that much faster. Thanks again.

Val

[Melanwee1]

Thank You! I have been stalking this all day looking for info. I personally am thrilled for the info, and so is my demo...why? Because I get all excited, want it all & by the time I *CAN* order things, I've had time to compose a VERY LONG list! It's all in the marketing! hee hee I'm so thrilled to have this info & SUPER EXCITED to get a catalog in my fat little patties! *grin*
~Melanie

[terylz]

Can't wait to see the catty in person. My demo will be handing out cattys at her Open House on the 1st. You can bet I'll be there. (hehe)

Thanks for sharing the info.

[fl_beachbum]

Thanks so much for the update! I can't wait to get my copy!

Michele & Jenn,

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!! "I'm so excited!" singing the Pointer's song from the 80's. :-D

What's the big deal?? Knowing can only help the demo's out. Maybe their customers are already making out their wish lists - I know I am.

[Scrapping&Stamping]

Thank you for the information from a non-demo. Customers are just as excited and we are itching to see it too!!

I don't want to start anything, just wanted to share a little. I think the reason she's upset is because she's one of the three demo's on SCS that actually got the catty and she has been frantically letting the rest of us demo's know what's in the catty. She's been typing for over 8 hours straight, fielding questions from the rest of us. She's done a lot of work today sharing info that she could have kept to herself. She's probably just hurt that her words have been copy and pasted in other areas while she's feverishly typing.

Like I said, I hope I didn't offend anyone, just wanted to give a little explanation of what I think happened.

Now go make those wish lists!;)

[BsmtScrapper]

Here we go again.... chill ladies!

I'm a customer....and info only creates buzz and excitement for me. My demo will be very lucky when I finally get to see the catty.

[Adda]

Yippee I am one of the lucky ones who did get the cattie today! I do live in Canada and usually get left behind in the conversations due to the delay in delivery. There have been numerous time when everyone has been chatting about the new info in the monthly mailers and I have no idea what everyone is talking about.
Anyhow, IT'S GREAT and not to worry, yours will be there soon.

Hi everyone! New here and just surfing along to get a feel for the site. Personally I would LOVE the new catty NOW too!
How did you manage to get yours today? Are you a demo? My sister is signing on to become a demo next week after the new cattys are available...hopefully she wont have to wait long for her starter kit.

[Adda]

Yup I am a "demo" (really just feeds my out of control collection) and preordered a box about a month ago. I am assuming they mailed out Canada's a little earlier to help get it here on time. Last year I got mine about a week after everyone else and it was pure torture waiting.

you are lucky....my current demo (since i will likely have to switch and buy from my sister.....LOL) isnt having her open house for the new books till about the middle of July...not sure if, as a current customer of hers, I will be receiving my copy before that :(

[gv-copperdog]

I am not a demo. I love checking for the information early every year, even just little descriptions about new stamp sets. I have to imagine them in my mind for a week or two, and it's kind of like reading a book insteading of seeing the movie. It's part of the fun! (Last year so many people were talking about how ugly the gnome set was, and I just knew I would love it!) There is always a great deal of excitement and some of us are thinking about SU almost day and night for a little while so, demos, be happy! - Gay Howe

[travelinscrapper]

Thanks for the little sneak peek..I know my list has started and my demo will be thrilled to death to see how long it is already.
Demos don't worry be happy with the upcoming orders come July1st.

[deb_loves_stamping]

I love the sneak peek too!

[Susan94]

I used to be a demo, but quit a long time ago. Anyway, whether I am a demo or not, I like to be able to know what to excect in the new catalog as well. With that being said, there have been numerous posts before today saying that the watercolor crayons were being re-packaged. Is this true? I would like to know as the deadline to order is next Friday if they are not. Can someone please let me know if they are for sure in the new catty or not?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[TigerLily2713]

repackaged into color families in Canada this makes them cost $30more then when you buy them now!!

I'm just a rule follower with sore hands that didn't want to stir up trouble for other demos like what happend with SAB (which had nothing to do with me ;))

Not scolding just worried!!
