SU lovers What was the most
Recent items you ordered?
I think it would be fun to see everyone's recent purchases.
Mine?
Just ordered Petal Potpourri from the occasions catty at the last minute! I've been debating because I really only like the top two flowers. I've seen a butterfly punched out of the doily like flower and it's awesome!
My other purchase was off of the clearance rack.....Lost Lagoon ribbon. That's all.
How about you?
Ready, set, go!

ordered a large order from SU last week, here in Canada. Wanted to get in on the free stuff of $35.00 once I hit $200.00. (From the sounds of it, we won't be getting as good of a deal in the future catty.) I got Chalktalk, A Round Array, Dictionary, Hey You stamp sets and the punches that were marked down: ticket duo builder, mosaic punch and decided I had to have the Itty Bitty Accents punch. Also little Labels punch. Venetian Trim ribbon, and embossing powders that were discounted, ribbons and other discounted items on the retired list.
Just bought two Spellbinders sets; A2 Fancy Postage Edge for $12.99 and Tulips Border for $9.99 at HomeSense. I think in the U.S. you have Homegoods. I think the same store.
To maximize the free stuff and demo discounts, I place fewer large orders throughout the year, so my most recent order was in March. But I remember getting several Artisan Embellishment kits, the scallop border punch, Sheltering Tree stamp set, and a ton of ribbon. I got other stuff but I can't remember it all! Oh, the SAB vellum and IC twine and buttons pack. That was fun stuff!
Now I just got my new catty today and my next order (probably not until July) is going to be a big one! I just LOVE the new catty!!!!
My last order was a big one placed back in February to take advantage of Saleabration. I also ordered a lot because I wanted to qualify for one of the hostess sets from the last catalog. I need to think about this since it's been a while but I got:
Painted Petals and Butterfly Basics from the Occasions catalog
Blue Ribbon (so glad I got this before it retired)
Kinda Eclectic
I also got both butterfly punches, the All Abloom paper stack, and a few packages of cardstock.

I got the new in colors, You've Got This, Sprinkles of Life and the tree builder punch. I also go the Bohemian DSP and in color envelope paper. The Bohemian DSP is SO much nicer than it looks in the catalog!
Butterfly Basics bundle from the Occasions catalog
New In Color markers, cardstock, and ink pads
new Bohemian washi tape and paper
One of the new ribbons
Tree builder punch & Sprinkles of Life Ronald McDonald House charity set
My most recent SU order included cardstock, a few ink pads, and other goodies from the clearance rack. I am looking forward to see what the new SU catalog has to offer.
I ordered the Butterfly Basics bundle from the Occasions Catalog when the thinlets finally became available again, because at the time I wasn't sure if it would be in the new catalog.
I also ordered Mint Macaron and Tip Top Taupe cardstock and pads for my new catalog club order.
I think it would be fun to see everyone's recent purchases.

What a great idea on the punched butterfly. Will have to remember that.
My last order was a pre-order from the new catalog of a few stamp sets, 6x6 paper pad and the new in color cardstock, ink and refills.

Here is the card my demo friend made with the butterfly punched from the doily flower that is in the set petal potpourri. I fell in love! She may have cased it. If anyone recognizes it as theirs, it's stunning!

Those are beautiful! That doily flower was the main reason why I purchased that set.

Yes, while I wasn't big on doily stamps in general I love this flower! So unique! That card looks bubbled because it is covered in plastic. It was on a display board.

I got all the new in colors cardstocks, Dsp, markers, ink pads and refills. A couple new punches and some new DSPs and like 13 stamp sets. Thats all I can remember for now. I just know its going to be a huge box as my order is about 489.00.

I ordered Perfect Blend just under the wire and only to find it was no longer available. I did however find a demo that had one . Yeah. I only ordered a pack of one of the new in colors paper.
I just placed an order yesterday from the new catty but I'll post some of my favs that I ordered (I placed a big order ;) ):
Over the Rainbow stamp set p.21- I can see this as great cards AND get some great scrapbook pages out of it. Plus it has awesome brush strokes as part of the set which I will get great use out of!
Barnyard Babies stamp set p.33- I love the sweet little animals. The samples of this set really sold me! I love the watercolor effect with them. They are in the baby section but I can see many more uses for them other than baby!
Words of Truth stamp set p.41- I LOVE this stamp set. Think Project Life titles, scrapbooking pages! I think everyone of these stamps will be great in my scrapbooks for my kids. Very hip. A lot of kids say #truth on instagram- so I think these will work great!!!
No Bones About It stamp set p.43- do I even need to list a reason??? OMG this is a GREAT dino set!!!!! LOVE!!!
Watercolor Wings stamp set p.75- I am not a girly girl, but these butterflies are awesome! They are the first stamp set I predict will be on backorder!!! Very well done!!!
The Wilderness Awaits stamp set p.86- another great wilderness stamp set. The images are great and well done. Think of the dog for the dog lover in your life! Great for male cards! Just well done.
You've got this stamp set p.113- again, I don't buy tons of flowers. i do think the flower in this set is pretty but don't ask me what kind it is, because I seriously don't have a clue! But the reason I bought this stamp set was background stamp included in it. I will use it a ton!!!!!!!!
Watercolor Wash background stamp p.129- what a great way to add slight color to the background of any card with this stamp! Perfect!!!
Whisper White Thick Cardstock p.149- AMEN!!! Stampin' Up finally got better white card stock for bases!!!!!! I ordered TWO packs!!!
Washi Label punch p.166- One of the best new punches! think all of the words you can punch with this punch!!! Great for labels! names! Dates!
Brick Wall embossing folder p.174- I love brick details! and in a 6X6 size!!!

I also love Words of Truth and No Bones About It! I'll be getting those. I will take a close look at Over a The Rainbow, I I liked it too. I will look at Watercolor Wash too.
I'll be getting the heavy white CS for sure!

Can we come help you unpack! That would be fun. Then we could go visit Viva Las Vegas! Is that the name of the big stamp store in LV?

Thanks! Fun to see!
I noticed watercolor Wings after I looked at the catty a few times. That is another must have and looks like it's so fun to work with. I hadn't noticed the Watercolor Wash BG stamp! Nice!
I also hadn't thought about the brush strokes in Over The Rainbow. You gave me lots to think about! Yay!
