What scrappy thing would you spend it on?

I don't want to spend it on consumables (paper, stickers, xyron refills, etc).
I have a Cricut and many carts.
I just bought a Sillhouette.
Is there a fun new tool I need?

I have the same umm problem . I bought a punch and a thing of zing. Maybe copics? They carry the spica packages - I bought a gold one to try from another store and really like them.

I would buy a new paper trimmer. Then I would go to the Tim Holtz products and pick up some new distress inks.

HL has some really good tools. They carry several of the Epiphany Crafts button and shape tools -- it's nice to have a couple of those.

You might want to hang onto it. I think there are a bunch of new tools being introduced at CHA. Might be a few months before they hit HL, but if you can wait, it might be easier to spend the $$ when there is some cool, new stuff!

Whatever you buy try to use a coupon on it so that your money stretches even futher.

How about a Sew Stamper with a case? Kind of a cool tool.

If you want to do some embossing they carry the Texture Boutique and embossing folders. I agree, I would hold onto it until after CHA and see what comes in.

If you want a big kick, you might look over in the jewelry, with the vintaj items, they have a sizzix big kick in a vintage color scheme.
It is not excluded on their coupon.

They have some relatively new embossing folders. Studio Calico misting masks. Glimmer Mist. Some nice stamps that uses the LYB script font. Sew stamper tool.

Have fun!

No doubt, a really nice trimmer with a sale or coupon or

a couple of nice albums

I should get albums when they go in half price. I'd probably buy more cs and stamps instead.

Spica pens (by Copic) are nice and the glitter doesn't flake off!

Our HL has added a lot more name brand (not Paper Studio) product. they now have MME 6x6 pads, more Thickers, more Prima flowers and have added to their Tim Holtz line. Personally, I stock up on adhesive, get another American Crafts album and probably some of the name brand products mentioned.

They also carry a good selection of punches and have added more Hero Arts stamps.

Do you need storage or a tote? I think they have ArtBin, which I love. If you wait for a sale on what you want, your gc will go even farther.

Also, Tim Holtz scissors and piercer. Great products.

I really wish HL would start carrying WRMK albums! I am having the same problem with gift cards from christmas. I don't really need more products/tools, but I would love to stock up on some of the basics. Luckily, I can purchase adhesive there...that is what I plan to use mine on throughout the year.

It's not new but if you don't have the Tim Holtz Tiny Attacher I would recommend that

I've never bought anything but a collection pack and a themed kit at HL, so I'm not sure what tools. But thinking about stores in general, if I had $50 and had to spend it on a tool, and were you, I would get embossing folders that work with one of your die cut machines. I just have the old-style texture plates that were made before die-cutting machines and would love to be able to add texture to pages and cards the more efficient and easy way.

I have the tiny attacher (and love it). I was thinking at the very least I could get another one. I think I have decided to wait for now. Its my birthday soon and I might get more GC to combine. Thanks for all the ideas. I haven't been to HL in a long time!
