I haven't received mine yet, it's driving me crazy......
I would like to have as many samples as possible for when the mini comes out. So I'm hosting a swap at: Forums at Splitcoaststampers
Come check it out and join! This is one way to have samples of all and not have to buy them all at once. (I sure would like too!)

OH My gooodness!!! I LOVE this mini catty. IT is so up my alley right now. I'm on a collaging kick, so this is perfect. I want...ahem..I mean NEED the collage alphabet and numbers, oh the little hearts alpha is cute too, and I want Love is in the Air, and the new fiber background, and Office Ephemera, and Mon Ami. That's my pared down list.
Going Out in Style and the matching wheel
More Petal Prints
the wheel guide
and the gingham ribbon
(oh yeah, and if I had all the money in the world, I would also get Canvas, Office Ephemera, See With the Heart, and Collage Alphabet and Numbers. Oh, and also Bundle Up, Twinkle wheel, Moni Ami.... Hard to stop!)
I LOVE this winter mini!! I usually don't really find many HAVE to haves in the minis, but this one blew me away. Everypage, I was saying I love this, I want this. Anyway, my top 3 are
1. Curvy Verses
2. Going out in style
3. bundle up
4. alphahearts
I also love the Occasionally set for hostesses. Now I am going to host more workshops at my home to try and get this one.

And after all that - Curvy Verses is the only one I see I need.
Have Brr Baby which I like better and am not into "cute" so don't need those sets. The vintage I like, but not if I can only demo for 3 months.
Guess i am too practical
well, i don't usually order from the mini 'cause I can only demo it for a short time, but... this time I actually stayed up late last night till it was midnight in SU world, and placed my order:
collage alpha and numbers
twinkle wheel (will go great with All the Best set)
wheel guide (of course)
canvas BG
I figured these are ones that I will get a lot of use out of, even if I only use them for personal use after the mini ends...
I am new to posting to this forum, but I really liked the new mini cati, which is unusual for me. I like to buy things that I can show for long periods. But this time I see things I will use a lot on my own pages! My three picks would be:
1. More Petal Prints
2. Curvy Verses
3. Poetry in Motion (only because my 4 y/o princess is in Gymnastics, and I want to do a page for her!)
I REALLY like Bundle Up, but only have so much money (not as much as I would like!!).

I'm not THAT crazy about all the sets, but I ended up getting:
Canvas - I think if you emboss with detail embossing - it may be a good substitute for the magic mesh? What do you think?
stampin' around wheel guide (think that customers will like the idea they will wheel straight instead of crooked!)
Mon Ami - will look nice with the french script bg which I am breaking down to get finally because I've eyeballed it for over a year!
I think See with the Heart is pretty - vintage look is not necessarily my style, but because of the images (birds, sayings, flowers) it's more verstaile. I'll get in Dec or Jan, probably. Will have to see something made with it, first.
I ordered Curvy Verses, Bundle Up, and the matching wheel - can't remember the name. I was going to order the ribbon, but now have to wait, which is o.kay because you know I'll be ordering some more sets with that!
The wheel guide looks good but I'm pretty handy at using the wheel and I would think it would mess me up. LOL. But, it would be a good seller if I could learn how to use it!

I love the Collage Alphabet & #'s, Canvas B/G stamp, and Curvy Verses. But then I also love several other things (More Petal Prints, the ribbon, Love is in the Air, Flower Factory). It's going to kill me, but I'm going to wait and order in December as a hostess order. I don't have any shows until January, so I really don't need to order anything right now. Oh, maybe just one or two things. This is going to be way to hard.
Ok, I waited all weekend for my mini and never got it. I just got home after being gone ALL day. I've been running since 8:30. I thought how nice it would be to come home and sit and relax while I look at my mini......BUT it wasn't here. It still hasn't come.
Question.....I've never pre-ordered before. I'm assuming that it goes on a supply order. So does that mean it doesn't count toward hostess benefits or toward your quarterly minimum? Sorry i'm off the subject.
I'm sad cause I picked the dinosaur one for my swap, I hope their will be samples to copy, and barely anyone else said they liked it. I think it's so cute!
I also like Bundle Up, and curvy versus.

I hate that I don't have my mini, but looking at the samples on the SU! site I'd have to say that I like the alphabet sets. I like the Alphahearts better. I also like FLower Factory, Bundle Up and Curvey Verses.
I didn't see the wheel guide. I don't really think I need it, but I will be ordering it. I have way too many people in my stampers club that just can't use a wheel good. So I don't end up selling many wheels. I don't demo them as much as I would like. I think this will get my wheel sales up.
mine came today!!! finally!! but it looks like it was dropped in a bucket of water--it's a horrible mess, still readable, but not good to show to customers. or i could tell them that i just love it so much that i just can't stop looking at it & i dropped it in the bathtub!!!!!!!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
my favorites are: 1. collage alphabet and numbers (i wish the "D" was little though--my "trademark" is little letters!
2. office ephemera
3. vintage brads (next catalog, yeah!!)
4. more petal prints
(do you see a pattern as to my "style"? mon ami is growning on me too!! oooooooooooooooooh!! i don't see stampin' up going out of business any time soon!!!!!!!!!!!)
