Package Arrived, Shopping

My SU catalog Pre-Order arrived today! Yea!! Here's a look at some of the new goodies in my package.
August 11th starts the new Stampin Up! catalog I for one can't wait to see it. Among other things, the new catalog will include the NEW 08-09 In-color sets. The NEW In-Colors are named: Baja Breeze (blue/green/aqua), Kiwi Kiss (green), Pacific Point (blue), Pink Pirouette, Riding Hood (Red), Tangerine Tango (Orange).
In the picture above, yes, that is a scallop punch you see! And, it is marvelous!! And, a sock monkey stamp set! He is so adorable!
Had I had more foresight I would have taken a picture of all the Expo purchases I made. But, I have already unpacked everything! I'm getting better at organizing my stash!

Also, two of my most fave purchases lately are:
1.) Copic Markers. Have you used these yet? Though they are expensive, they are refillable sketch markers and are a blenders dream come true. I purchased this set at the Expo. However I have purchased before from Ellen Hutsun .com where I plan on purchasing more some time soon.

2.) We are Memory Keepers 26 pc. Ultimate Cutting Tool Kit. I've been eyeing this thing for a LONG time. And, as luck always has it, I order it online, then I see it a few days afterwards at my LSS. Anyways, this thing is amazing. Both sides are self healing and the ruler (and other items) are completely magnetic!! Unlike other cutting mats, this one has its dimensions on the outside of the cutting area, so when you lay your paper on top of it the numbers are not covered!! And, lots of angles are laid out for you for easy cutting. I can't wait for this to arrive!

Believe it or not, I have cut back on my sbing purchases. For me to buy it I must really have my socks knocked off! :) I find it takes a lot to "wow" me. Am I getting jaded? Or, do I have a lot of stash and am needing to be more selective on my purchases... I think it may be a combination of reasons, but most of all I think I know what I like and like what I want... LOL
