What kind of scrapbooking stuff did you get as gifts for the holidays?

[Grumpy's Gal]

Tell us here!! Ok, I'll go first -- not terribly exciting but VERY much appreciated....I received refills for my xyron and my other tape runner, some 12x12 paper, some tweezers for gluing small objects, and some very, very nice Barnes and Noble letter boxes to keep things in that will coordinate with some of my other storage pieces. I also got a new sizzix die cut that is "packages" with bows.

I hope you all had a great holiday!

I got $30 GC for Michaels (it's supposed to be used for the new MM paper trimmer, if they ever start stocking them), $50 GC from the LSS (it's getting spent tomorrow, and I have a 20% off your entire purchase birthday coupon too!), a box of ribbon from Costco, some Disney Jolee's. I also got a bunch of CM stuff from my MIL (corner rounder, pens, tape runner, and the 7 x 7 Disney kit).

I also got a big jar of pistachios, and when the pistachios are gone, the jar will be perfect for holding ribbon.

I got a 12 x 12 7 drawer plastic holder, also a ribbon holder. The ribbon holder was from Target and I might go get another one, it's for Christmas ribbon, but it will hold alot more scrapbooking ribbon on the spool. I really like it.

I received a $15 GC to Rag Shop from a friend because I often stop there during lunch break for paper or stickers. I haven't decided what I will buy with it.

My brother gave me a Sizzix machine, which has left me with a need to buy Sizzix dies because I have the Sidekick and asked for a Sizzlits alphabet. I've been eyeing some of the clearance deals at sizzix.com, but I'm holding out for Tuesday Teasers before checking out.

I got a binder type supplier holder with plastic case inside for smaller supplies. 3 new scissors with fancy edges. a paper crimper type tool, you put the paper in and turn the handle and it crimps a heart design into the paper..

iNTeNSeBLue98 - Before you buy anything at the Sizzix site, make sure you check out CreativeXpress! They're Sizzix stuff has been permanently reduced in price. It's hard to find cheaper prices...even on Black Friday with the Turkey Bucks at Mikes or Tuesday Teasers at Sizzix! And then CX has an extra 20% off right now on most Sizzix stuff as well. I did have to pay PA sales tax though.

Now, for Christmas....

I got several Sizzix dies: button Sizzlits, star border, jungle leaves & the zig zag frame*
I also got several Coluzzle templates: nested heart, Christmas #2 shadow set & Winter shadow set
* I had to return the zig zag frame as I already had it. Instead of another Sizzix die I exchanged it for the Fiskars Leaf border punch.

My DD15 still has the migraine (since Sept) so she never got out to shop. She gave me a voucher for a shopping trip to the craft store of my choice. The best part of that is her willingness to actually go inside with me! (Usually she wants to wait in the car. )

DH got me a digital frame so I can see my favorite photos here at my desk and a Wacom graphics tablet so I can edit my photos! That's a huge deal for me! I'm left-handed but use the mouse with my right hand...so I lack the control to do the fine editing with the mouse, but I can't use the mouse with my left hand either!

Oh - and I almost forgot that I participated in a Secret Santa swap on another board and got some great scrapping stuff including stickers, spiral clips, and a bunch of CM stuff. Fortunately I got a new tape runner & refill in that because I ran out of adhesive & then broke my old tape runner in the middle of a gift project!

Hey, Thanks for the tip piratesmate! I'm so antsy to purchase, but I'll take a look over there.

I also spent gift $$ on a Xyron 150 (X) and a Xyron 250 adhesive machine yesterday. I just used the X for the first time to adhere small pieces of cardstock and ribbon to Rolodex cards...so much easier than the glue stick or photo squares!

I got 2 new Cricut cartridges, Cricut blades, Cricut tool kit...DH loves to get me things for gadgets that he has already purchased. Makes shopping easy for him.

[PoohBearLovinMama]

From my Dh, I got a new photo printer that will print up to 8.5x11 photos! I asked him for one and he said no way, too expensive. So, he totally surprised me with it.

My mom gave me some Disney stickers, a huge set of brads and some border paper.

My inlaws give everyone $100 in their stockings and this year mine is going towards some CTMH stuff. The eyelet/brad organizer with the jars and some other things. I haven't made up my mind on the other stuff yet.
