Wow, there are pages and pages of wonderful chatter and news and I'm trying to get to them all, but I think today there could be lots of news, so perhaps we could save this spot for just news to make it a little easier to find information.
I hope I'm not stepping on any toes by requesting this.
Thanks to everyone at convention for ALL the fabulous news.

Update from my upline Brandi (Brandoo): She was still in session and talking fast so I'll do my best...
1. The 21 page spread will include an exclusive stamp set, DSP and promotion
2. Bulk buys - Vanilla Hodgepodge, chipboard and maybe another rubon set
3. Phase 2 of DE - she went out on a bathroom break and happened to see a board with new DE. It looked like the boat from Nursery Necessities (I think that is the name) and looked to be a border. She was talking fast but it wasn't just in chocolate and white.
4. Lots of talking about "just" a hobbyist. She equated it to saying you are "just" a stay at home mom. Don't undervalue your contributions!!
5. Shelli's exclusive line coming in Holiday mini (already saw that above)
Ok, Shelli started talking again...she had to go listen...hope this helps!!

Reason: edited out extra unrelated comments ;)
Haven't read the thread - someone may have already posted this info. Here are my notes from this morning:
Shelli stressed that no demos were "just" hobbyists. All demos, whether hobbyists or business-focused, are important to SU! and always will be.
Shelli is starting a blog. It will go live Monday, August 4th at 9am MT. The URL is http://www.soshelli.com
Shelli is starting a "signature collection" - items she personally loves and/or had a hand in developing. The bella rose apron available in Memento Mall is one example. Future things will also include stamp sets and accessories. First chance to buy things from her collection will be in the Holiday Mini.
SU! will partner with Country Living magazine again this year in November. It will be a similar promotion as before, but bigger and better. It will include a kit with stamps and papers. SU! will be highlighted in a 21-page spread of the December holiday edition of the magazine.
7 3M/Scotch products contain images of SU! projects - this is just one example of the types of partnerships they are building with other companies.
All sets in the Spring/Summer catalog will be die cut. ALL SETS.
The "Under the Stars" stamp set (new camping set with bear, sleeping bag, etc.) will have a promotion for a reduced price sometime in Aug (& Sept?).
Phase II Decor Elements - new colors, new designs, including 2-step wall vinyl. Some of the new designs include:
Ginormous flowers (in choc chip, pixie pink, so saffron, gable green)
Nursery Necessities (in choc chip - plus other colors TBA)
Chills & Thrills (a spooky spider) is available to convention goers Aug 1 - Aug 12 for $10.95 US. Available to everyone else in the fall.
Countdown 'til Christmas (real red, old olive)
Season of Thanks (choc chip?)
Tomorrow, SU! will announce another new product they are unveiling.
As of this fall we will have even more home decor rub ons and in COLOR!!!! They have a line of flowers, a countdown to Christmas, Spooky halloween spider, and a season of love that will all be brand new along with apparently more suprises!

Also Brent Steele mentioned that at some point in August some of the new sets would go on sale, including the new camping set with a skeeter wheel. I don't know if it is strictly for demos or for customers as well....
