Yupeee! Christmas is Here!
Merry Christmas to all of you here at SCS! Many Blessings to you and your families.
It's so excitiing to hear what all you wanted for Christmas all week.
Now, we all want to know what you got!
I'm so excited to play this week - have the week off work and got a Cricut, a Janome sew mini and a 12x12 paper cart to attempt to organize some of my paper ;)
I did not get anything stamping or scrapbooking related either but the new Design Series Software for my Cricut came in yesterday!! So now that Christmas is almost officially over I will have time to play with it and have fun!
OMG, I had the best xmas ever....My very own Design Series software from my nephew(he is only 28mos)lol....and I am also the proud owner of a 35mm Digital Rebel xti camera from my DH...he did soooooooooooooooo awsome this year....also got a GC for my fav scrap store...and my DD got me a Coach purse....she graduated nursing school a few months ago and now has a real paycheck, as she calls it....I know there is more but these were the BIG items I had to share.....
I must have been a REAL good girl this year.
I got to sleep in late....and since hubby and I don't exchange gifts we got to sit and watch our boys open their gifts and I got to take photos...they were so happy with what they got...new books and cameras (so they'd stop asking me to see mine) and some board games...new sheet sets from mom mom (they just got big beds)...and santa got them a new spongebob cd player/radio...
the big suprise for me was that the boys got me a jewelry box...I've been wanting a jewelry box since my oldest son was born...he's going to be 6...so they got me the best gift ever. I didn't think that I was getting anything today since I already got my gift from the family of a "bottomless coffee cup" from Bruegger's Bagels...I am a coffee addict so that was a great gift...the jewelry box was a bonus!!
I got a $100 bill to spend wherever(I just bought some stamp related items online last night and today), another link in my diamond bracelet from DH, DD got me a Tiffany heart tag bracelet...wonderful day..
Merry Christmas to all.

I got some stamps,gift certificates, lavender cream chocolates (my fav.).
Gadgets and stuff for cooking, I love to bake for everyone. The biggest suprise was a wooden 12'' X 36'' sign "Create" cut in a beautiful script font to decorate for my craft room. I received it Christmas eve night and by 2pm Christmas day it was painted,stamped and hanging on my wall ( was I excited about it ?). It is the day after here 1pm and I have made 2 cards, a paperbag album and a black/pink skull girl folder. It seems I am on a hot streak, LOL.

Dyson vacuum cleaner, camera tripod, several GCs to eat out with my DH, crafty items including 2 new Cricut cartridges (My Community & Alphalicious), books, under the cabinet CD player, 2 wallets, fabric steamer, a share in the SU Pretties kit, a craft tote/briefcase from Paper Studio

Before Christmas I wrote down phone number and item number (for my DH) so I would get a scor-pal and for an ATG tape gun-and guess what I got them for Christmas. Have held back and tried them both only once today and they sure seem to be as great as everyone claimed they were. Hooray. I even half way cleaned my craft room for an hour today to celebrate my new toys. We spent a lot of today playing (really the time together is the best gift) with our Wii-it is so much fun-got the dance game-it is really hard, it and boxing are a workout which I desperately need!
My DH and I had sworn not to get anything for each other - but it turns out apparently I'm the only one that swore!!! He got me emerald-cut diamond earrings!!!! I was just speechless.
I got a Visa gift card and money from my parents and lots of other little odds and ends from my sisters. I'm off to Archiver's sometime this week to spend the money!
I got a Vera Bradley purse, 2 charms for my Pandora bracelet, some prismacolor pencils, some MFT stamps, and I still have a package coming- which I think may be Bellas. Oh and I got money from my boss and the in-laws!!!
All your replys are great! Very good ideas! hummmmm, I've got my Valentine's and Mothers day list already!
This year I got a Bind-it-all, Cricut machine, and tags,bags, & boxes, and mini monograms, and a blue tooth for my phone. From my hubby.
DH got me a new ankle bracelet. I was really stunned! I had one for several years that broke. I just told him to repair it. He said the old one is being repaired but went ahead and got me a new one.
DD got me the Cricut Paperpups cart (we exchanged last week). YEAH!! She is in Hawaii and called me from the top of a volcano earlier to say Merry Christmas.
DS just moved out of state for a new job. We told him not to buy us anything. We did send him some gifts and he called this morning and we placed him on speaker phone so we could all unwrap our presents together. It is so nice to be able to do this. This was my first year w/out my two oldest kids. Really, Really hard!!
I love this thread every year. This group is the only place I can rave about the crafty bits and bobs I got as presents. I received the Making Memories Desktop Carousel (picked it out myself but I still got it!) and it's already loaded up with all my bits and pieces. I also got some bottles of MS Glitter, an electric pencil sharpener, some Hero Arts stamps (from my MIL), patterned paper, and a few little craft tools. My main gift this year was a beautiful pair of ruby and gold earrings. I know I can't stamp with them but I can look very stylish while making cards! Merry Christmas everyone!
I had a GREAT Christmas.. in August I got my Cricut Expressions machine (early! and got to play with it since then) ~ today I got:
Magellan GPS unit
Kitchenaid Mini Chopper (I have a big 11 cup Food Processor, but wanted a small one)
Cricut Paper Dolls Dress Up cartridge
Kitchenaid Spatulas
White Diamonds Perfume
Stove Burner Covers (I burned the last ones!)
socks ~ can't ever have enough socks to keep your feet warm!
$$$$$$
Santoku (sp?) Knife in pink
beautiful cards that my kids made for me ~ they are the best!!
I think I got it all remembered ~
Merry Christmas to everybody!!! Pam

I got a xyron, some SU stuff and two wizard of oz ornaments. My mom gets me the new ornaments every year, and I love them! It sounds like we all had a good Christmas!
I also am the proud owner of the Cricut Expressions along with alot of cartridges, paper, and other tools for it. I'm still in shock that my DH bought it for me cause I've never asked for it and didn't even know he knew what it was. I also got a personal space heater for my stamping room since it can get a little on the cold side. Plus 13 cans of Tastefully Simple Chai Tea. Now I never have to leave my stamping room, except for a little chocolate now and then!

oh my its been an eventful couple days. i got a diamond mother daughter cameo a dvd player that plays down loaded dvds. entire collection of scrubs 6 seasons of them i think. my brother thought it was my fav. didnt have the heart to tell him it was greys anatomy. have never seen scrubs in my life. clothes purse gift certificates. gonna have a blast shopping with all of these during the after christmas sales. bathrobe slippers lounging outfit. and my mom has been a qvc addict so got some different things from there. mittens scarf perfume. cool sephora collection. has samples in for you to try (10) and then you go pick out a full size bottle. cool marketing idea. and then a side note we played the WII oh my gosh its pee my pants fun. we bowled and did dancing with the stars. the kid is getting one as soon as i locate one in a store!!!
__________________ I've waited my whole life to flirt with the MOUSE
What I got is a pair of diamond and gold semi-hoop earrings. :confused:
Don't get me wrong ... they are very nice, but not for everyday wear. I'm a SAHM and dress casual most days. I'd only wear these earrings 3 or 4 times a year. Hubby said it took him almost an hour to pick them out.
Ordering a Scor-Pal would have taken him five minutes from the comfort of his office.
I got a tabletop paper cutter, pretties kit, oval punch square punch, 2 rolling stamp totes!!! (One will go back) 6 Cuttlebug folders 1 die, 1 inkadinkadoo stamp set, chalks, cardstock....oh and soo many more non stamp related things!!! (We have 3 family Christmas's and nobody knows the words 'small Christmas'!
My husband and I didn't exchange much but enjoyed seeing the joy in our childrens' faces whtn they opened up there gifts. Hope everyone enjoyed their day
My DH and I don't really exchange gifts we just by our own which is fine by me. That way I get exactly what I want and get to play as soon as I get it!! I got a Cricut Expression, a lot of cartridges, the Design Software, and some new folders for my Cuttlebug. And my dh built me a shelf for my cartridges that sits on my table next to my desk over my computer and printer perfectly!!! Yes, I am spoiled!
I got the Cricut expressions, some cartridges, tools, mats, a pad of cricut paper 12x24, time to play with them, freedom from cooking for 3 days, some almond bunket(sp), calls and laughs from family far away, a safe trip on the roads to eat with my mother in law at the retirement home, a new retro comforter, and banana nut bread from neighbor.
