I have this friend that I have met through this wonderful message board and she is always sending me packages along with cards and what nots for my children. We have been friends for about 3 years now and chat all the time on the phone. Her birthday was last month and I still haven't gotten her anything because I don't know what to get her. LOL Crazy I know, but its hard when we live so far apart and I don't know what her set up exactly is and I never know what carts she has bought herself along the way. So if you were to receive a gift from a scrapping friend what would you like? It doesn't have to be scrapping related, but we are also limited to a few scrapping stores around here, so if you mention something from an online company please list that site. We only have ACMoore, J's & M's around. Also, if you say a cart which cart would you buy? She is always buying me carts so I am up to those suggestions too.

If you are not familiar with them.........Peachy Keen stamps makes clear stamps (faces) to go along with quite a few of the Cricut carts. They have faces for the Paper Dolls cart....Create a Critter and just released the new ones for Mini Monsters. Pretty cute too. You could always order her a stamp set to go along with a cart she already has and have it shipped directly to her house. here is the link if you wanna check them out. http://www.peachykeenstamps.com/

My birthday was last week and my BFF gave me a basket with items that you need to restock all the time, cricut blade refills, xyron tape, mats, zig glue pens, white gel pen, red and green cardstock (Christmas is a comin), ATG refills, fiskars cutter blades, and bling. Everyone loves bling! Just a thought.

How about a gift certificate to a store like M's or an online scrapbooking store?

I second the vote on things you use up: adhesives, xyron refills, blades, cardstock, pens, stamp pads, rub-ons, embellishments, bling, etc.
I LOVE Lyrical Letters as a cart. Not only is the font adorable but it has several nice designs that make into cards easily too. It's one of my most used carts.

thanks for the suggestions. I am not familiar with Peachy Keen stamps but will look into them since I am getting her mini monsters because she did mention that on a wish list. Refillable items are a great idea and totally didnt even think of that. Guess I will be going to use my coupons. LOL

Yes, I would love to get refills for my adhesives, and glue dots. They go fast and and be used all the time. Or you can just give her gift certificates.

How about sending her something edible from where you live. Maybe something your town or state is known for?

Wow. What a nice friend. I love the idea of a gift basket, certificates are nice but nt close enough. Adding some vinyl would be nice too. Especially if she has never done it before.
