My big one was a wonderful new camera bag - arrived in the nick of time yesterday.
But from friends I've been lucky enough to receive 3 great sets of stamps, and my sister even came up with a little cat punch to go with her other cat-themed gifts.
My half-sis just phoned and said she took a break from Michaels this time but has got me one of the *hot* non-crafting presents this year - I'll have to wait till Jan to find out what it is, though, by the time it crosses the Atlantic and makes it up here.
I got something that sounds silly but I really needed it -- prepaid cards for Ritz Camera to get a big backlog of photos printed. Then I will have some photos to actually scrap instead of just think about it! Lovely turquoise and silver earrings from Santa Fe, too.

No stamping goodies, but I didn't ask for that. I got a beautiful cherry wood salad bowl made in Vermont. Also a beautiful beverage container, it's large with a spigot at the bottom for those times when you have a crowd over. I've been wanting that. A full set of the Harry Potter books as my DD has destroyed my originals. It's all good!! Merry Christmas, everyone. Who else wants to share what they received? Kathy
PS It's 70 degrees in southern CA.
It is 38 and snowy in Dallas! I got a $100 gift card to Nordstrom's from my dh because I have lost 22 1/2 #s and he knows I need clothes. They have a great after Christmas sale.
Oh, goodness, I think I got one or two gifts that weren't stamping-related :p:p Let's see....my sister got me a set of Copic markers (yay!!!), my brother got me the SU! Flight of the Butterfly set, and also the Stampin' Scrub (if you don't have one of these, you need one!!). Also, I got the SU! classic ink pads in the Bold Brights colors (and the Chocolate Chip), along with the scallop edge punch, and then a MS loops punch. Soooo....yeah Looks like I'll have a lot of fun in my stamping room this weekend!!! Merry Christmas!!

I'm getting a new office type chair for my studio. I've been using a hard wood chair. DH and I are going shopping next week, since I didn't have time to "test drive" any this week. It will be heaven for my bum hip!

I got a new big rolling tote from my mom and my SIL in Idaho sent me stickers and paper. And I mean a LOT of stickers. LOL. A whole big box full ,mostly dimensional type. I guess I better start scrapping more!
And I think everyone in New Hampshire needs a car starter! Mine gets put in next week. I can't wait!
I got a new BS (black) I had a turquoise one but I coveted a black one and Santa came through. also got paper, 2 gift certs for Mikes, a magazine subscription, and the Wild Cart cartridge for my expression. I also got some nice non-crafting treats. But, most of all, a nice time with my family!
I got a laptop (needed a new computer, mine was shot) a wireless printer, a Keurig coffee maker, a roomba from my in-laws, a great spice rack that turns with empty bottles to put embellishments in. A very generous year.
I got a gift card to PTI! I also got some gifts cards for Bed Bath and Beyond, since I have been saving up for a stand mixer so I can make tons of cookies. Merry Christmas, everyone!
Crafting related: Archiver's gift card, card folding idea book and a cool tackle box-type storage case. My brother picked out the case -- total surprise! I think he had some help.
Noncrafting related: a Kindle and a carrying case, a remote starter for my SUV, new shoes and other bits and pieces.
I got a loaded Dodge Durango Limited and DH is having a tow hitch and remote start installed (we have a boat to tow); a new leather couch and recliner for the family room, and the Canon 15-35 f/2.8L lens for my camera.
We've dubbed this the Lexus December to Remember Christmas as the lady that totally my van was driving a Lexus. All I needed was a big red bow on my SUV.
No stamping/crafting stuff, but I can get that for myself in January.
Greetings from Western Ks where it is 19 degrees with winds up to 50mph......
My crafting Christmas was a large DVD cabinet to hold all my stamp sets and I totally love it.......the best of Christmas was the phone calls from the grands to tell us what Santa brought them and say thanks for their gifts.

I got paper and stickers from my dd in WA. I got a new PrintMaster program as my old one bit the dust when our hard drive crashed. Also got a printer for my craft room, some lovely clothes, chocolate (YES!), and other odds and ends.
We are snowed in so won't be having the other party until everyone gets dug out in a couple days. 21 degrees, very windy and going on 20" of snow here in MN. It has been a lovely, quiet day! Merry Christmas, everyone!
My wonderful hubby got me a $40 gc to my LSS and a $50 gc to Hobby Lobby and then my aunt also got me a $25 gc to HL. I see more Copics and Nesties in my future!
Language-learning software from my sister (we moved to TX a few months ago and my high school and college-level Spanish is pretty rusty -- neither one of us could afford Rosetta Stone, though, LOL!), a Mary Kay gift certificate, a big, fluffy blanket for my dog who's always cold since she's barely even got peach fuzz from the front of her neck down to her belly, and a bookmark, lots of chocolates and a calendar in my stocking.

I got a Xyron Design Runner with all the accessories from DH. I played with it a little today, but plan to spend a lot of time in my stamp room tomorrow since we're snowed in, so will use it more! My niece got me a Sizzix sidekick, but I'm going to use my Christmas $$ from MIL to upgrade it to a BigShot. Once I can get out of the driveway. Next week. Did I mention God gave us all 3' drifts in our driveway?
Other than that, I'm getting a new horse next month, so that is a major gift
