Did Santa bring you any new toys for your hobby? My DH bought me the Provo Craft storage binder for my Cuttlebug embossing folders. He also bought some extra pages for it. I tried to put all my folders and dies in it, but I found that I need more pages. I didn't realize I had so many.

But that's quite all right since my DH bought me a .22 pistol with laser grips! And he bought me a new external hard drive. My back up hard drive is really old and it is slowing my computer down tremendously; the new HD is hooked up & my files are transferring as I'm typing. Once that's done, I'll take the old hard drive out of my computer
A Nikon CoolPics camera! I really needed it because my old camera didn't always turn on for me, which is highly annoying! And cash for stamps of my choice.
I got the Canon 5d Mark II DSLR camera!!! But it's on back order, so I just got the receipt. LOL~ But that's A-OK with me. My new baby will be here in a few weeks.
DH and I also both got each other a sheepskin rug for the wood floor in our new bedroom LOL! Great minds think alike. Neither knew that the other had bought one.
We have postponed our Christmas to the 26th when all the family can be together, so I don't know if I got any crafting gifts from the family. My DH let me order some Copic's last month as part of my Christmas gift though and I found out from younger sister that she bought me the hot fix tool for Christmas so if that is all I get for craft toys I am still very happy with these items.
May everyones Christmas be joyus and happy and take time to remember the reason for this wonderful day and the celebration that we have and remember those who don't know about the wonderful birth of a King that we celebrate each and every year. God Bless all.
My birthday was on Tuesday and I never normally get any craft related items for bday and Christmas...I tell them...they don't listen...lol
Well, this yr for my bday my boyfriend got me some 12x12 paper packs. I love it! I was so surprised. But it shows he listens and pays attention lol. Whenever we go to WM I head straight to the scrapbooking section and he follows. He knows I LOVE paper! My mom and dad got me a g.c. at my fave LSS! I love that, first time they did that too! Can't wait to go shopping.
I wont be celebrating my Christmas with my boyfriend until Monday so I don't know what he got me! But I'm excited.
I also had gone to Big Lots a few weeks ago w/ my daughter and found a lot of great scrapbooking deals there and just bought them and told her she can give them to me in my stocking and for Christmas. Plus, I had forgotten what some of them were...so it was like a surprise!
My boss gave me a gift card to Michael's (last year it was $50...so assuming it is the same this year).
A friend gave me cash because they said they had no idea what to get me for crafting but wanted me to have some new toys. Between that $ and my bonus $ - I am seriously considering a bind it all and a couple sets of nesties.
DH got me a camcorder (which I'd already opened a couple weeks ago so we could tape the kids' Christmas programs at school).
My husband and kids bought me a CRICUT with accessories!!!!! I've wanted one for a long time. I almost have to pinch myself! LOL Hope everyone else had/has a wonderful Christmas!!!!
I stuffed my stocking with adhesive for my Slice.
AND...
I bought myself a Nikon D40!!! My husband let me use his credit card, and I'll be making payments for the next 18 months. But I HAD to have it, and am so happy I did it!! It is so lightweight and easy to use! I need to play with it some more later. I guess that's more scrapbooking related than stamping related, though. Uness I use it to take pictures of cards!
I love this thread each Christmas...it's so fun to "see" what everyone got.
I got 3 cricut cartridges (just got the Create on my bd a couple of weeks ago so it's great to have some new carts already!) and the tool kit and some spare blades and mats. A great gift from hubby.
I also got 2 sets of nesties (I only had one set before today) and the Making Memories desktop organizer.
My non-crafting gifts were 2 leather purses, a Kenneth Cole wallet, a couple of books and a game for my Ninentendo DS.
i got a Cricut Expressions from BF, its amazing. I even got another cartridge!
and gift certificates to buy more cardtridges. I also got cardstock, brads, stickers, etc.
if only christmas came more than once a year...hehe!

I got a Cricut Create and some cartridges. Storybook, Graphically Speaking and San Serif for now. It came with Don Juan. I also got JOTS, Christmas Solution. I will be creating for days to come. I am a happy camper.
Hi!
DH and the kids bought me an Expression for BF, it came with 2 cartridges, plus they bought me 3 of the new cartridges. Storybook, Sports Mania and Calligraphy Collection. Wow, I can't wait to start playing.
I stuffed my stocking with adhesive for my Slice.

I got the D40 too! I picked it out and got it set up early but DH wrapped the empty box (so I could take pics of the kids opening presents this am!). I love it!!!
I had my bday last week too and got a Janome Sew Mini and some jetmax storage cubes.
I've had a REALLY good year!!! Plus, best present ever, DH got a new job that starts on the 2nd. His present company is laying him off starting on Dec 31st. I'm so proud of him and just amazed. He's the very best hubby ever -- and he buys me craft stuff. You've got to love that in a man!

I Got a Wizard and a paper storage system from the Best Craft Organizer. Ooooh it's really nice it's wooden with 18 slots for paper. And my Sister got me a custom stamp with My name on it it's really cool! Andddddddd A brand new camera!!!!!!
Santa was so sweet - it is so nice when your kids finally get old enough to buy you "real" presents. My DD sent me two MS cooking pans - wonderful and extremely heavy and I've already used both. DS sent the Willow Tree starter Nativity Set, which I have thought about before - have a few angels of my own. That was it for family Santa. Now for what the Santa in me bought myself - whoa! I ordered the BS and dies, new paper and stamps from SU. Also going to Archivers for more supplies on Saturday. Then flying out to see my 7-month-old grandson. You know - take more pix so I can scrap more!
I scrapbook and make cards. Hubby bought me a Cricuit the day after Thanksgiving. I've only got to use it a couple of times since I've been getting ready for Christmas. Three of my students went together and gave me a Creative Memories gift certificate, so I'm excited about that too.
My hubbie bought me a jar of bath salts and a purse that my daughter picked out. I have designed a new pantry, laundry room and master closet shelves. I am *hoping* that he will like what I designed and let me buy it next week. *keeping my fingers crossed*
I got a cricut - which totally surprised me because I didn't know my husband even knew what they were, and I have never expressed a desire to own one. I love that he thought about it, though, and I'm sure I'll learn to love it!

My husband bought me an Ott light! Totally a surprise!
Mine, too. And yes, it was a surprise. I didn't think he'd paid any attention to me when I said the light was abysmal in my craft room! Of course, he's relentlessly practical. I knew it was useless mentioning Michael's had the Cuttlebug half off, LOL!
At least he heard SOMETHING I said! (But it is time to candle his ears out again...)
My Santa DH was also WONDERFUL about listening to my "wish list". He brought me 3 new Cricut Cartridges (Home Accents, Locker Talk, All Mixed Up), CM StoryBook Digital Scrapbook Software bundle, a Ribbon Organizer for the wall and the BEST gift of all he surprised me with a new chair for my Scrap Counter. My sons got me lots of Bath & Body stuff too!
How BLESSED I am feeling right now! :p

My husband bought me an Ott light! Totally a surprise!
I got one as well! :-D And I'm delighted too - I can craft away in the evenings now without getting tired eyes as my current light is rubbish. Got loads of other goodies as well, but thats really the only crafty one.
DH is giving me something for crafting that costs nothing---time. He has been very understanding about me needing some time for myself to do what I love. (I've been dealing with my mom having serious health issues, including multiple small strokes and the realization that this is most likely her last Christmas and I need time just for me, just to relax....)
Did Santa bring you any new toys?
under the tree
Oh Yeah!
