I can't imagine this punch not making it into the new catalog, along with the matching set. I might be wrong of course, but for some reason it just seems like it would be more of a bother for them to make (or arrange to have made for them) such an intricate punch, and with a coordinating set, for such a short selling period. ????? And it likewise seems to me that if it wouldn't make it, then there'll be a whole bunch of them coming up for sale after it retires since so many demonstrators purchased it. So, I voted for waiting, although with a caveat - if you absolutely love it and can't live without it then by all means get it now while you're 100% sure!

Yes, order it! Everyone says they can't imagine that SU would go to all the trouble to make the set w/ coordinating punch and paper if they weren't going to be in the new catty, which is pretty good thinking, BUT you just never know, life is full of surprises...good and bad. I'm a demo, and even if that punch doesn't make the new catalog, I'm keeping mine!
As a new demo who isn't making much money, I'm also on a tight budget, and, I also debated about this punch. But, I figured for demoing, it would be good to have it, too. So, I ordered it ... and I LOVE IT!!! I use it even when I don't use "Looks Like Spring" - the flowers are so cute as an embellishment, can be layered, and are just great in general. Anyway, if you get it and regret it, I'm sure you will be able to re-sell it here in the B/S/T forum or on EBay with no problems ... especially if it doesn't show up in the main catty! HTH!!

I agree. If I had the set, I wouldn't want to take a chance on the punch.

I wasn't sure about it either. I ordered it and have not used it yet. But, this way I have it in case it is not in the current catty. You can alwasy trade it later if you don't use it. But, the e-bay cost if you wanted it later - BIG $$

I'd order it now to be sure. I use mine ALL THE TIME. Having said that, I feel confident it will be in the new catty. I can't imagine SU making such a nice big punch JUST for a mini catalog!

I didn't think I would need the punch but regretted not getting it almost immediately! The punch really adds the finishing touches to the large flower in the set. Get it.....you won't regret it! :-)
Have a stamp-happy day!

I didn't order it until we used it at a workshop I attended. Then I had to have it! Of course, I'm sure that is the whole idea of workshops -- to show you how you can use things. I have not regretted buying it.
If you wanted anyone to talk you out of it....you came to the wrong website!!! LOL!!! I love mine, no regrets here. When the new catty comes, there will be MANY new things to love!

I answered Yes, order it now. I do believe it will likely make the new catty (I'm not a demo--it's just my own opinion), but it's such a great and versatile punch that anyone who is remotely interested in it should get it!!!
Punch or no punch?
