Xmas gifts for scrapbooker? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Gracie2006 · 12-14-2007, 06:45 AM

I need your help. My girlfriend is in to scrapbooking. She is taking her daughter to Ireland in March. I thought some scrapbooking supplies, perhaps with an Irish theme might make a nice gift. However, I don't know what supplies she has, what size of paper she uses etc. I was thinking of a gift card to our local craft shop so she could pick out what she needs/wants. But that is kind of impersonal. I don't want to spend more than $20. Any suggestions on how to create a scrapping gift?

Also, her daughter will graduate from college next year. Any inexpensive ($10) gift ideas for a 21 year old? She just got an apartment but it is stocked.

Thanks!

If the daughter has an IPod you could get her a $10 I-Tunes card...

For the scrapbooker if you could find some Irish lace or a doily made of Irish lace for her to use in her book that would be a nice gift

EBay always has some.

The itunes card is a good idea. I hadn't thought of that. My daughter is about to bankrupt me with Itunes. She wants a new song or two every day.

$2.00/per day X 30 days in a monthX 12 months a year =

Good Ideas! I thought of the ITunes gift card. She has an IPOD but I don't know if it is functional. However, she does have a laptop so she could play songs on that.

The Ipod card sounds like a really good idea, and I would try to get here scrapbooking things with an Irish flare. I'm sure they would help you at the scrapbooking store.

WoW! Great idea on the iTunes card......or really any other gift card for that matter......

For the scrapbooker....how about a gift card to a local hobby store or scrapbook store! I know I am getting my MIL a gift card to Hobby Lobby because she is into photos and scrapbooks...but I couldn't even begin to think of what she needs or wants regarding scrapbooks.

Well, you could personalize a gift card with a note explaining that you wanted to be sure she got what she really wanted and you could include a 'coupon' for a shopping day at the craft store and lunch on you...or wrap it up with a nice box of flavored tea, coffee or cocoa so she can relax while scrapbooking her memories. My best friend likes to read so one year I bought her a new book, box of flavored hot chocolate mixes and some new slippers so she would stay toasty on a cool evening while enjoying her new book.
