Not only is it May Day today on May 1st, but it is also the first day of the 2024-2025 Annual Catalog. Can I get a “Woo Hoo!” ? We have so much fun ahead of us as we create with and explore new Stampin’ Up! products. To kick off the new catalog year I have created a video for us to walk through the catalog together page by page and get ourselves organized and oriented for a whole new year of creating.

Here is your Homework 😊
I hope you will join me as we go through the catalog and learn about how things are organized and how to find what you are looking for when you need it. First download and print the Annual Catalog Resource Pages I’ve created to help you find important information inside the catalog, then watch the video and walk through the pages together with me.
Annual Catalog Resource Pages
Embellishment Colors
2024-2025 AC Color Inventory
Wish List Page
Annual Catalog Labeling & Info Boxes
Designer Series Paper Table Insert
2024 Color Coach Cards
Ok, now you have all the tools you need to dive into another year of creativity! I would love to know what you think about the new catalog and what you are most excited about!

Hi Robin,
I love tuning in when you outline the new catalog. Your helpful guidance helps me to stay focused and not overspend. Of course all of it is a want (LOL), but I stay within my budget early on. Thanks for the downloads, they are very helpful as well. You are a wealth of knowledge and very much appreciated.
God bless.
Debra – thank you for your sweet comments. I really appreciate knowing what helps you and why!
WOW – What an enjoyable way to start New Catalog day watching your video walk-thru!!!
You have put so much thought and work into making the new catalog user friendly and I cannot thank you enough for all your wonderful tips and the download sheets!
Thank you so much, Julie! I’m so happy you enjoyed the video and the resources. Thank you for taking the time to let me know how you feel!
i really hate the new catalog. Your going through it has helped me tremendously. Your pages have simplified this book for me. You make it seem so simple. I have a tendency to work harder than I have to. Thank you.
Hi Susan, and thank you for your feedback and thoughts. I was upset by it at first too. So glad my resources have helped.
Hi Robin, I am looking for the Gems color chart that you mentioned was provided by another demonstrator. Can’t find it here. All of my gems are in such a mess I don’t remember what colors on each card and weirdly Stampin Up does not list the colors on the packaging. I saw another demonstrator write them under the flap and I have started doing that too. Thanks again for the great walk through, Kathy
Hi Kathy! I sent you an email answer!
Robin, I am really struggling without a reference to what colors the embellishment packs are. Can you point in any direction to find this info?
I have a version that another demonstrator made which I’ll send to you in an email. I’m working on my own version currently and then will share.
Thank you for these tools to use with the new catalog. I’m going through the video now using your aids, hoping it will help me to like this version more. Up to this point, I’m unhappy with the new catalog layout-especially the white font on citrus color background! These old eyes cannot read it!! I started watching your presentation but stopped about 10 minutes into it realizing I needed to download your tools and work through the catalog along with you in order to gain the most benefit. As usual, you have come through for me. At least I’m not considering leaving SU anymore- yet- but it is only demonstrators like you, my own, and a couple of others whom I follow that keep me here. Again, I appreciate you very much!
Dee, I’m so glad you are giving this catalog another chance – I know it has its challenges, and I’m always happy to share. Thank you for leaving me a nice message and helpful feedback.
hi Robin, thank you, your explanation was the best! I have changed how I’m looking at the catty completely. I’ve downloaded your additions, thanks for your hard work. Cathy.
Cathy, I’m so glad to hear that you are going to give the catalog another chance to work better for you and your crafting, and I’m very happy to help!
Thanks for the great walk-through, Robin! I downloaded all the helps and I’m going to go through your video again to be sure I didn’t miss anything!
I’m so glad this walk-through is helpful!
Thank you sooo much for all you have done to teach us about the new book!! I was so confused when I received my catalog. You have made it so much easier to find things. I also love how you made all the helpful inserts. Thank you for that also! I do have a question about how to print the colors chart though. I can’t seem to get the whole page to print, it leaves off a couple of the supplies on the list. Of course I could just write it on the back of the page. 🙂 Once again thanks for all the time, thought and effort that you put into this video!! I also love your other videos. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for this feedback, Barbara! I’m thrilled my homework has helped you make the new catalog a resource you can work with. When printing, try to find a setting that says “fit to page” and that should make it all on one page.
