I got a Michael's gift card... from my husband's side of the family. Yeah! A friend gave me a thing called a HotMarks. Says right on the box "Great for Scrapbooking!" You're supposed to be able to "mark, melt, stamp, brand, cut, seal, & So Much More!" Can't wait to play with it. It gets hot I can see some interesting things happening that are not craft related like burning myself, the table, melting my table cloth. hahaha I also got a subscription to that "Stampers' Sampler" magazine I just love. My mom gave me a hint that she had ordered it with another gift by saying on the card "and don't forget the reindeer Comet, Cupid, Donner and Stamper." I had to chuckle. I kept thinking who the heck is Stamper?
Sounds like you got lots of goodies Lynne! Let us know how the HotMarks works, I've wondered about them. You will love the Stampers' Sampler mag, I know I do!
These are very kewl tools! Wow!! What A great present! That sounds like a cute card your Mom gave you also a neat way to reveal "Stamper" Heh! that must be Santa's invisible reindeer! You know the one who stamps up on the rooftops! LOL!
CHA (Craft & Hobby Association) Innovations Award 2004: for the Creative HotMarks? and Creative Versa-Tool?.
I bought mine @ AC MOORE during one of the Craft Festivals & used a 50% off coupon. I saw it & had to have it, like most of my stuff! I haven't tried it out yet, but one of these days my scrapbooking/craft room will be all organized & I can find everything I want to use to create projects & have a place to store them all!
While watching HGTV Carol Duvall Show (repeats) she showed this tool as one of the new products available for us crafters. I saw her make a clear plastic envelope using the heat sealing tip was pretty kewl! Gave me a few ideas for using those confetti pieces, seed beads, etc. w/ making shaker style cards!
There's lots of great project ideas on there website!

I bought this @ AC MOORE paid full price but have to get the difference back w/my 50% off coupon since I had the wrong date coupon w/me that day!
