With free shipping from SU, I'm wondering if you have any recommendations from the latest mini or the main catalog. Other than a few Christmas items, I have not ordered from SU in a while.
I pretty much just buy tools (punches or embossing folders, for example) and cardstock anymore - I'm pretty well set with inks and don't like the direction the stamps are going, so I just bought four packs of cardstock (Real Red, Baked Brown Sugar, Soft Suede and the Subtles collection) and some ribbon off the clearance rack for my free shipping fun ;)
If you're into dies the spring catalog has a gorgeous thinlet butterfly die and a matching stamp set. Also a set of word dies. After going through my ink pads and markers I realized I really didn't have a decent variety of colors. I bought paper and some ink pads.There's a star edger punch that looks really cool. Disclaimer: I am not an SU demo but only wish I were. Have fun!
I love, love, love the mini treats thinlets in the Occasions catalog. I have used that die more in the last month than any other. I also use the Hello You Thinlets a lot. Guess you could say I am into Thinlets of late!
One other thing I love that gets overlooked is the Adventure Bound Designer Series Paper Stack, lots of fun for $6.95

The butterfly thinlits die is unavailable at the moment and may not be back in until after the free shipping....boo hoo. That's what I would have ordered.

I ordered some Dimensionals, envelopes, 3 cs packs (including Strawberry Slush, the only color from those InColors I didn't get separately) one DSP since they're all retiring soon, some ribbons and the tiny silver brads. Don't want any more stamps or dies at this point.
I don't want to get all bothered with the retiring lists. I think it's too soon for them to mess around with their colors again.
The Artisan Embellishment Kit, Four Feathers stamps and framelits bundle, painted blooms cotton twine...those were all on my last order and I love them! I also love the Banner Blessings stamp set.

I may get the birthday set that has the big word "surprise" in it. I can't remember the name at the moment dang it. Anyway the Artisans just used it and posted a bunch of fun cards with it. I'd never paid any attention to it…and I just placed an order before the special….I may have to get it (and of course a few other things, lol) with the free shipping! I love (and my credit card hates it) when someone makes me take a second look at something I totally glossed over!

I got the itty bitty accents punches, itty bitty epoxy stickers from the spring mini, blossom punch for a friend's birthday, some re inkers, & Bordering Blooms photopolymer set.

I love the itty bitty accents punches! So versatile.
The stencils/masks are fun to play with, and super cheap. Just use a sponge or dauber to add color.
I just opened a big box of stuff tonight - new Project Life travel kit, stamps, basics like ink refills and envelopes, a couple of card stock colors, the Adventure Bound bundle (I loooove the paper pack!), and a pack of patterned paper.
Totally forgot to order storage cases. I think that I'll have to place another order tomorrow. Why not? :P

Talk to your demo. Stampin Up just told us of an offer they are going to have for the butterfly framelits once they come in. It isn't free shipping but it will help.
