What stamping/scrapping stuff did you get for Christmas?
Just wondering what stamping/scrapping stuff you all received for Christmas? I had a stack of funky retro background papers, some matching retro ribbons, some groovy buttons and photo corners and... the promise of some SU stuff, too!!!!!!
I didn't really get anything, but I bought a bunch of SB stuff and put it in a bag for both my DD and myself. She loves letters, so I bought a bunch from the Times to Cherish catalog. I also found some letters, slide mounts, etc., at different stores throughout the year. I always give DD a big bag of stuff for Christmas, but it is time for me to stop buying and start using!
My DH always gives me money to buy clothes for Christmas. I think I will use some to buy stamps!

From MIL: aged copper hodgepodge kit, elegant eggplant CS, bold brights CS, soft subtles craft spots and Toile Blossoms!
From Sis/Demo: Take Shape (she held onto this one for a while!) and rich regals craft spots.
I got some awesome stuff that I can't wait to play with!
I also got some Christmas $ and my birthday is coming up (2 weeks) so I'll get some birthday $ - I plant to get a few things for SAB.
I received a gift certificate from one of my fave local SB&RS stores - I plan on using it this afternoon (if I can get away from the 'puter and finally up to the shower!) Not sure what I'll get - maybe a tool or something that I just can't "spend" the money on...
My DH gave me the 3 Simple Scrapbooks "Yes, It's a Scrapbook Series" collection, VERY awesome and $50 for SU! stuff, my kids gave $60 gift cert to a local SB store, my Mom gave me EE & BB classic stamps spots (now I have all the families!), Wonderful words and Around the Block hostess set she earned at a workshop we recently went to, finally, my Dad gave me a $50 gift cert to local stamp store, ABC punch set and an organizer for my stuff.
I guess I did pretty darn well this year...did I mention in another thread that I also got tickets to see George Strait in Vegas?? WOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't get anything under the tree, but I've used my christmas $ to order whimsical alphabet lower, and a bunch of paper and embellishments from SU!

I got All the Best, some card stock, a "handstamped by" stamp, some brads, an embossing tray, and a flower punch. I also got a gift card to Archivers. I have the stamps mounted already and am ready to play.
From one of my best friend/demo: Newsprint Alphabet
Another stampin' buddy: EE craft spots
My sister: Wonderful Weaves, EE eyelets, a box of monoadhesive refills
My husband: a label maker to organize my stamp room (I've been hinting for a while - I love organization) & Archiver's GC
I was lucky! I also rec'd $$ to spend in January.
Gift Cards! The perfect gift from the male members of my family who, at the sight of a crafts store, become spastic drooling idiots. Dear hearts that they are... Michaels and Jo-Anns were the choices this year. I'd hoped for VISA or MC gift cards for a SU! shopping spree. But these are cool too. What I can't find for scrappin' and stampin', I can feed my current quilting addition.
I got a cool Chatterbox corner press to put those metal corners on things. It's in the cutest little brown leather mini suitcase with a little combination lock on it. I just went online and ordered a bunch of metal corner charms to use with it.
Hi!
DH took advantage of the 12 Days of Christmas sale on the Sizzix web site and bought me 17 dies for Christmas. He had me send him my wish list and then when the box got here I couldn't open it until Christmas morning. Ughh!!! it was hard not to get into that box. So, this afternoon I'll be playing with my new toys.
I got a rubicoil from my husband. I knew what I wanted so I asked him if I could go ahead and order it. It has been sitting under my tree for a couple of weeks just staring at me. It's all mine now though. ;)

Oh my gosh does e1 know me.....I got a ZBB purse, some cool patterned and textured paper, a $15 gift cert. to my fav stamping store, a complete Alphabet punch set, 48 set of gel and metallic markers, tons of rubber stamps (1 of them says " stampaholic "), a new stamp and stick gluepad, stickers, and frames to make more name frames. I don't have time to work with all this cool stuff!
I got the "Script" alphabet for my Sidekick, 50 sheets of Bazzil cardstock (I have only started working on my cardstock collection recently), MM magnetic stamp base plus an alphabet and 2 sets of word stamps to go with it, some ink pads, MM rub ons, 2 bottles of Prima flowers (can't get them here yet so BIG thank you to MIL in England!!!), and gift certificates for Michael's.
Not too bad considering I only started this kick last year!
Thanks Santa! Hope everyone got some goodies under the tree this year.
My DH gave me BB and RR craft ink spots and some UTEE clear embossing powder, and Itty Bitty Borders stamp set he had won on eBay. DS gave me lots of embellishments: some really pretty Christmas tree and snowflake brads, colored brads, and a multitude of buttons for Autumn, Halloween and Christmas. My mom and Dad gave me $ to get what I wanted so January will complete a lot of my wish list for me.

My DH got me the most wonderful table to stamp on! It is about 6' X 3' and is very sturdy (so much better than the card table I have been trying to work on). It looks perfect in the stamping room! I love it (and DH, too).
I got the watercolor crayons SU from my sister, 4 stamp sets from my husband and a gift cert. from son and daughter-in-law. Can't wait to use everything.
My husband bought me the Making Memories Runway Tote Collection, which is a bag on wheels, an over-the-shoulder tote and a little handheld bag. The best thing they are all pale pink. Haven't arrived yet though. :(
He also gave my friend some money to buy me a z Becky Brown bag which is at her house until after the holidays.
I got a Z Becky Brown purse! That's my only stamping related gift. I got some money, but that has to go toward my dogs vet bill. The poor little guy has been very sick. :(

From friends, Curvy verses and silver encore pad, and more to come!
My son's been letting me use my watercolor crayons, three background stamps and wheel since about September and he gave me the money for them for Christmas since I had paid for them. I'll use some of the money for SAB.
My daughter gave me Shapes and Shadows, Classic Trucks, Alphabits and sq punch, 3 ink pads, a couple background stamps.
My husband gave me a digital camera and new printer and we were not suppose to buy for each other so it's a gift for both of us.
I love my new toys and they are all mounted now but the Alphabits.
Oh, I also got a Joann's gift card from the ladies I play teacher to in stamping. And I still have to get from my SIL which will be all stamping related, she got sick and I don't want her near me right now!
It was the first time I picked my gifts and let someone else pay for them, such fun!
my friend gave me a xyron refill, my son gave me a gift card to Michael's, and I got money from my in laws and my dad....so went shopping at Michael's today and got the Sizzix for 50% off and 3 die kits to go with it. Still have some money left, so will check back this week to see if they got the coverter kit in, they were all out today, and maybe some sizzlets.....oh I can't wait to play.
My wonderful downline got me the Carl Cutter a few weeks ago, which rocked.
I got 2 classes my friend signed us both up for-1 is a regular scrappin one and teh other is a photo transfer one I am excited to take and learn some new techniques.
I got a 2 yr. subscription to Papercrafts, and my DH got me another year but I am going to try and witch that into anotehr magazine so I don;t end up with a 3 yr. subscription! LOL
He also got me a hefty gc to our local scrappin store to use for classes or goodies, as well as some 12x12 organizers and card organizers that have funky stripes and circles-love them!
I got many othe wonderful gifts, but those were my crafty ones.

I bought myself the Watercolor Crayons, my dad and brother got me a craftlocker ribbon locker and the 12x12 scrapbook tote. I asked for the ribbon holder, they got the other one on their own (I thought that was super sweet!)
My husband gave me a $25 gift certificate to my SU demo. My mom contacted my demo and picked some things off my wish list....two stamp sets, the new color pastels, and the neutral pastels. I appreciate both of them giving me my favorite supplies!!!
My DH gave me a gift certificate for SU and my best friend (we've been pals since high school) gave me a Michael's gift certificate. I have been there today taking advantage of the 50% off sale. I got a light box for dry embossing - it's smaller than the one from SU but seems a good size for doing cards.

My best friend gave me a $20 giftcard to ACMoore.
My oldest daughter gave me a wheel.

Mounted my stamps yesterday...can't wait to get busy!
Well, I didn't receive any stamping stuff from anyone for Christmas but I guess I could say I bought my own as a present for myself. I got a big time refund from a place I was waiting for. So I used some of the $ for that I still have alot left to spend yet.
There is a local craft/gift store that is going out of business and all of their rubber stamping stuff was 60 - 70% off. I spent around $100 on stuff I didn't mean to spend that much but some of the stuff I got is stuff I would like to try before I go and spend lots of $ on it and find out I don't like it. I think I got like 11 stamps.
When I have some of the things in front of me I got I will probably have questions on how to use some of it or what I can do with it like foils.
Edited to add: Now that I have been reading some of your posts I also thought of some SU stuff I would like to get with Christmas $ I got. I thought I wouldn't need to spend anymore on stamping stuff for a long time but there is some SU stuff that I would like to get.
