You know what would really impress me? Since they are all so into stamping maybe a basket of items to stamp on for each of them? Like a composition book to make into a journal (they have the mini comps at Walmart for 86 cents), look at stamponthis.com for more ideas, a baggie of primas, two chipboards each maybe their first and last initial, CTMH has these adorable mini albums for $3.50 each that they can decorate, buttons, ribbon, Memory works also sells Making Memories paints for $13.50. You get six in a package with 3 foam brushes and one palette to put paint on. You could get a couple and divide amongst them. I hope this gives you some inspiration. How thoughtful of you to get them each a gift!

Our club is doing a gift swap as well. It has been hard for me to narrow it down , since most of them have done everything new and exciting!

I went in on the chipboard order, so I want to incorporate those. I think I am going to do chipboard frames or albums. I am going to give them blank chipboard so they can also make their own.


have fun with your gifts!

hummm Honestly I think that it is the thought that counts ~ Jami just made some Chocolate Candy Bar wraps that were just beautiful with a poem on them....

I dont know what you consider wow but I thought those were really cute.

I made a "name frame" instead of the name I put the word "PRAY" in it as a gift once and my SCS Friend that I mailed it to really enjoys it.....and it was not very expensive just time consuming....I think it is in my gallery....

That is about all I can think of right now....other than the paint cans filled with bath goodies or chocolates or something like that!

Have fun and let us know what you come up with!

I think the magnets are great with a cute little topper on a bag or nestled in an altoid tin.
