My personal thoughts on the new book:
-Love the fresh color combo suggestions & great samples displayed throughout the catalog; worthwhile inspiration:)
-Love the Style Watch lines: Manhattan, Sweet Bella, Retro Fresh. I love the colors suggested for these lines and most all of the images.
-Some cool new accessories including Sizzix dies (I love Beautiful Butterflies), decor elements, punches, corduroy buttons, clips, hardware, canvas cuts, new chipboard, and my favorite= Fleurettes crocheted flowers.
-Of course lots of new sets....I love Good Friend and Cheep Talk- two really cute bold image sets featuring adorable, retro-look birds. Lots of flowers, as usual; a sophisticated new line= Manhattan. A couple of good inspirational sets/greetings (Thoughts & Prayers, Le Jardin Botanique)
-Pretty, Pretty Designer papers including some new textured & glossy, a great masculine pkg (To the Nines), and a sweet watercolor-look paper (Tea Party). Also, Raspberry Tart coordinates with the Sweet Stems set and there's a few other pkg that coordinate with sets as well.
-New Simply Scrappin' sets. These are such a great value for the price. Petal Party is bright and cheery and is great for general use, Tailor Made is a nice masculine set; I also like Sweet Nothings and I love Sunshine Garden (So Saffron, Certainly Celery, Baja Breeze, and Old Olive)-great color combos, versatile ds paper, and die cuts for the general theme.
It's always fun and exciting to look through a new catalog and this one is no exception. I think I've combed through mine several times:) I'm trying to cut back on my wish list. Try to think about specific uses for any set that catches your eye, and do the same for accessories. SU has the most high quality cardstock that I've seen anywhere. And with matching inks and papers, it's easy to coordinate and perfectly match things up for your projects.
