What did you enjoy the most from this years catalog?*moved*
Was it a stamp set? An accessory, like the colored brads? The new cutter? The In colors?
What was your favorite thing? And what got used the most?
I just thought up this question, and I don't know the answer to it myself....I'm off to think about it! I'll be back in a bit to see what everybody else said!
Ok, I'm feeling a little like Letterman here. My top picks from this year's catalog:
5. The In Colors, well some of them anyway. There are a couple I don't like but I think it was a brilliant marketing plan for SU and I loved having new colors to play with.
4. Colored Brads! Now if we just had them in 48 colors, I'd be thrilled. Oh and while they are at it how about white staples!!
3. Ribbon Originals (and all the great mini catalog ribbons)--MORE, MORE, MORE!!
2. All the great new DSP especially the two sides ones and the update Simply Scrappin' Kits...Love them!
1. My absolutely favorite thing about this year's catalog...........
A DECENT SUNFLOWER SET!! I emailed SU for three years (weekly) asking for a realistic sunflower set and I'm so thrilled with what we got!!

I would say amoung my customers it would be the "in colors". For myself, I used the fresh favorites in buttons and eyelets. And while I WANT the colored brads I just haven't been able to afford them yet.
I love the DSP's. They are gorgeous. The coloured brads,yes! The neutral watercolour pencils! I think I would say the In Colours if we could've bought them in spot size. My enjoyment of them has been offset by the price.

DEFINITLEY the In colors!
Tools-color spritzer, color caddy extender
ALL THE NEW PUNCHES!
Accessory-colored brads, and new stitched ribbon. NEUTRAL crayons!!
Stamp sets
Bodacious bouquet with brass stencil
Wild about you-LOVE IT TO PIECES
All in a row
Riveting- OH I use it ALL the time, I will miss it.
Circle of friendship
watercolor vine wheel
Paisley bkgd
Those are my top picks.
If I had to pick just one thing it would be the stitched ribbon we all begged SU to keep after the winter mini. I really wish we had more springy colors of it now.
Probably my most loved new thing is the in colors. I need to stock up big time before they are gone, because I reach for them first. My second love is my tabletop cutter. That "other" stupid fiskars cutter is not worth anything! Oh, I almost forgot putting mixed boquet in the catty was the best surprise! Wild about you is to die for too!
The In colors, for sure! And the awesome hostess sets in this catty! I have a bunch of them, and I'm sure I'll be keeping most of them even though they'll be retired! Oh, and the new fun punches! Awesome! And some of the NEW Designer papers!
In Colors
Colored Brads - as someone else said, wish they had these in more colors
All the great new ribbons
The Designer papers
Punches - I am "The Punch Queen". I am loving my new Round Tab punch
As for stamp sets: Carte Postale from the Winter Mini is a favorite and I'm praying it will be in the new catty. Amazing to Zany was first on my list of sets to get when the catalog came out, love it.
What wasn't to love? It's easier to think about what I didn't care for than to list all I loved! Here's a stab at it:
In Colors - Cool Caribbean, Cranberry Crisp, True Thyme (please can we keep these colors!!!!!????)
Fabulous hostess sets!
Be Happy!
Dots and Dashes DP
Looks Like Spring and matching DP-it came back!!!
Ribbon Originals - love them all!
Oval punches
Ticket corner punch
The Snowflake Spot!
Happy Everything!
Linen Background-it came back!!!
Paisley and Fontastick background
Serene Sunflower!
Loved the trending towards more scrapbook friendly stamp sets - definately great versatility there. I just love SU! period. I don't even go to my LSS anymore. Why bother when we have it all!!!

Wow!! Thank you- i'm sure your perserverance was the ticket to this new set!!
DITTO on all of your list, and i'll add Artfully Asian & Paisley as my FAVORITE stamp sets ever!
definately the in colors!! but i also used alot of the stitched ribbon!! i like all the beautiful papers we have...holiday thyme was awesome!! loves me too!!!
i love the brads...all the colors... we NEED more!!! i liked the ribbon originals but would rather buy one ribbon at a time and not just 2 yards. i loved the sellabration simply scrappin kit...have a few of those!!
My favorite is the in colors ink and papers and the new punches and several of the flower stamps. Would be so nice if they would add the in colors to the pallet for 07
