I knew this would get some attention. My husband has to get a gift that will be presented to me from him at his work. *laugh* Sounds funny, but that is the military for you. Kind of a spouse appreciation thing. Anyhow, he asked me to give him three ideas for an item between $50-100 stamping or scrapbooking related. I am drawing a blank. Isn't that funny? You would think I could give him a lengthy list. I have a cuttlebug and cricut which I really enjoy. Is there anything else that's new out there I might enjoy?
How about the new scallop punches? Or Paper trey stamps and paper?, or Gina K stamps for the scallop punches? An Ott lite? Oh, sorry, I guess he isn't going to present the gift to me. These are things I'd like.

Do you have the sakura gel pens, stardust clear as well as all the colors.
Crop o dile is always good. Something you can alter if you like that.
Prismacolor pencils or markers or Copic Markers. Some of those great online stamps you love, but never purchased. Ribbon- he probably couldn't go wrong on that.
How about the Martha Stewart punches? I also fell in love with the Primas. They come in all sort of sizes and shapes now....you can load up on those. Ribbons....lots and lots of pretty ribbons (I love polka dots myself). What a lucky lady you are! Have fun and please update us on your choices, I'm so envious! ;)
Xyron Machine, Score Pal, ATG gun, Copic markers, cutting system, SU gift certificate, tote on wheels . . . just to name a few. Congratulations, you are going to have lots of fun with your gift!

a few other suggestions: primsacolor pencils, a new paper trimmer maybe (the purple cow ones are nice and in that price range), maybe the watercolor crayons from SU, or what about something to hold all your stamp pads and reinkers. just a few ideas. let us know what you decide.

How about a new Cricut cartridge? There are some really nice ones that were released recently. You can also get a box full of dies and embossing folders from www.sizzix.com in the clearance department. I placed an order there yesterday and most of it was 50 to 65% off. Great deal.
I know military families are always facing space constraints, but there's always room for quality paper trimmers, right? If you don't already have something amazing, here's some info on Dahle trimmers:
I would go for some bellas. I just can't justify the cost on my own, but man if I HAD to get a gift, that's what I'd pick.
Is your husband getting a promotion? I got a dozen roses when my husband was promoted. He laughed when he gave them to me, because I've always told him I'd rather have one flower and have him save the money- but tradition dictates a dozen for promotions.
