The sets offered are a little too stiff. As far as products I love the punch sets but was disappointed with the new flower punch kit. I would have liked a giga scallop punch set. However; I love the new double sided papers and the pretties. I want all the new papers.

That was so versatile, could do masculine, floral, you name it. I would have loved to have seen Twinklings or stickles in SU colours.

And since the war is a big part of everyone's life now, I would have love to seen a set to pay tribute to our soilders.<BR/><BR/>I agree with you on the Pearl-ex too! I had just purchesed a group of them and was having a good time, learning new techniques.

I prefer the narrow grossgrain ribbon so was sad to see some staple colors like Choc. Chip be discontinued. I also had hoped the stitched ribbon would have come in family colors, not just the In Colors. As far as stamps, I haven't been disappointed but rather happy to see another set with a sailboat in it. There was a set about 2 years ago and I saw some beautiful cards done with black embossing over a spectrum pad - gorgeous! So I'm glad to see that back.<BR/><BR/>The girls and I are in shock to see Andrew and Olivia so grown up!Janice McElweehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09749715968988090051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3005880064620550016.post-139448669914203932007-07-13T13:46:00.000-07:002007-07-13T13:46:00.000-07:00Hi Alli!Congratulations on 75000 hits!!!And thanks...Hi Alli!<BR/>Congratulations on 75000 hits!!!<BR/>And thanks for offering candy to celebrate :)<BR/><BR/>What's missing from the new catty?
