Scrapbooking kits
Good for:
- Moms (and sentimental dads)
- Friends
- Artsy-craftsy folks
- That person who is always taking pictures of you and posting them on their MySpace page.
- The rabid scrapbooker who has a whole room devoted to hole punches and caption box stickers.
Other kits I found surfing the Web.
Who doesn't love Amy Butler fabrics?! I found some great scrapbooking kits for $10 with Belle and Sola patterns over at HSN (I know, who would've thunk it?).
If you really want to go overboard (and who wouldn't with a cute kit like this), here's a link to a scrapbook of the month club at Little Red Scrapbook. Prices start at $27.50 for one month.

Let the gift giving begin!
Do you hate giving gifts? Does it seem like the better you get to know someone, the harder it is to find the *perfect* gift for them? It was with this thought in mind that "The Gift Giver" was born. Have a gift giving suggestion? Send it to getagiftgiver@gmail.com or post it on this blog. Need a gift giving suggestion? E-mail your request to getagiftgiver@gmail.com.
FYI...
--Every Thursday is "Help! I need a gift for..." The gift giver will select one letter and showcase potential gifts for that reader.
