I don't know if I can keep it to just 3 picks. The first of course is the gingham ribbon, all 4 colors. Then the Going out in Style stamp set and the matching jumbo wheel. Of course the More Petal Prints. And the new stampin'around wheel guide. The Curvy Verses and I'm still trying to decide which new alphabet set to get. How many is that? That will be my first order, and I'll probably find something else I can't live without.

Well, let's see... I'm into vintage at the moment, so I'd have to say Office Ephemera, Mon Ami and the Collage Alphabet & Numbers. Those are going to be my first picks!
Glad to know I'm not the only one who is wheel illiterate!!! I *love* using wheels, but it's impossible to keep them straight. I hope the guide will help.
I don't have my Winter mini yet -- but I think that when it does arrive, I'll have to choose my top 23, not top 3, from the sound of it!!
1. More Petal Prints--love these flowers!
2. Curvy Verses--great word set in cool shapes
3. Bundled Up--my girls love to skate
4. Gingham ribbon--Whoopee!!
Britta --- I don't have mine yet either !!!!! Ughhh. And the kicker is that my upline (who lives 2 minutes away) got hers yesterday. I've already received my mail today - and it wasn't there again. I'm right there with ya on the patience thing. :? :?
I must have it ALL!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: I can't choose just 3. Great mini catalog this time!!!! Usually I only find a handful of things I want in the mini catty's. I'm excited, my DH is not!

Well, I guess if you were going to FORCE me by taking away the world's supply of chocolate and Earl Grey tea, I would have to say:
1) Wheel Guide
2) Vintage brads (crap-shoot as to whether they get backordered or not)
3) Another order of Vintage brads
This mini catty didn't blow my skirt up like the Summer one did!

I haven't received mine yet either. I usaully don't get much from the mini's. I guess I haven't seen alot of interest from my stampers for the sets. DUH!! That's because I'm not buying them and showing them. I can't wait to get mine now. My mail doesn't come for at least another 3-4 hours. Now I'm going to be anxious for it all day. Has anyone in southern Indiana gotten theirs yet?
I really don't have a problem using the wheels, but I know that some do. I plan to order the wheel guide though thinking that my customers would benefit from trying it out and buy more wheels.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Bundle UP! I even love all the colors SU used for the samples in the winter mini for this set.
I also love Going out in style. I realize this is directed towards the Red Hat Society ladies, but anyone could use it really.
And I love the wheel guide. So many of my customers don't buy more wheels cuz they feel they aren't wheeling straight. I personally don't worry about it, but i understand there are times when you want it STRAIGHT!
Angie, I'm close to Southern Indiana - Louisville - and no Mini here yet!!! It's so disappointing to rush to the maibox & just pull out bills!!!! As a demo, I do hesitate to buy anything from the Mini even if I love it (ie. Petal Prints!!!!) for fear that it won't make the big catalog & then I could only demo it for those three months. Does anyone else feel this way & how do I get over it!!!
I would just love to see the mini catalog. Has anyone on the east coast received theirs yet? I swear, I think my mail man takes my SU stuff home and reads it because I don't get my Stampin Sucess until it has already been on the demo site for a week!!!!! I bet his wife is getting a big kick out of my mini!!!

Ask me about TAC.
I love Bundled Up and the matching Twinkle wheel. These are on my must have list!!
I really like Love is in the Air
I think See with the Heart is really eyecatching.
Overall, I think this mini has great diversity catching a lot of different stamping styles. I'm so excited for my customers to get this one.
And not to mention all the non stamp things. The gingham ribbon? Yippee!! and I too love the wheel guide. I've been showing people how to use the side of the cutter, but this wheel guide looks very cool!!
Just realized I'm on my mom's computer, so this is her ID.
Can someone describe this Canvas background to me? I guess I keep imagining something with a texture similar to Just Jeans? or is there more to it? I love backgorund stamps and am so curious!!!
It has a very fine grid on it. Similar to Just Jeans, but this grid is straight across and up and down. It reminds me of a cross stitch fabric.

This mini is going to damage my pocket book even more than the Christmas one did! I was whining and crying because I spent over $200 on the Christmas items, and my order for this catalog is $242.
My favorites:
Going Out in Style
See with the Heart
More Petal Prints
It must be a carefully orchestrated plot to make more and more stamp sets that no one can resist and I really WANT THEM ALL!!
I got my mini yesterday, and I know I've looked at it at least 20 times...I even made my DH look at because I thought it was so great!
My top 3:
1. Bundle Up w/ Twinkle Wheel
2. Love is in the Air
3. Curvy Verses
The Wheel Guide will also be great! I actually like the Hostess Appreciation Set. I've had so many hostesses complain about the hostess sets so I'm glad this one is so versatile. I like how they have the "verses" separate because then it will encourage more bookings so they can get the set that matches.
:( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :(
mail came--no mini catalog yet
but it must be HUGE! with all the "favorites" listed here!!!
almost 22 hours til the mail comes again....don't know if i can wait that long!!!!
