love me some product..!

hi my name is donna and good, fun, functional product gets me excited!

so today let me share with you my happy joy.

Fiskars...well by now you know about my green drill (so new it is not even on the website) well i must tell you about some other tools that i could not function without!!!

i have always loved fikars tools...but now they come in fashion colors!!!

• do you see that mat...the pink one? well it is 2 sided and is lime green on the reverse. so freakin cool. it is my second favorite tool it is 36 x 24" and covers the functional workspace of my table...can't live without it.
• they also have the BEST craft knife i have ever used and prettiest. it is ergonomically designed, not sure what that means, but that must be the reason it does not hurt my hand!!
• they even make NON-STICK scissors!!  love this little guys
• i had never used a micro-tip scissors before, what heck was i thinking!! these are perfect for detail cutting. the things you just do not know!

then this morning...i pre-ordered the Heidi Swapp roller stamps...yes ALL OF THEM!!!
i love you heidi swapp!!!

ok so that is my happy joy for today!
time for another cup of coffee and more creative paper play!

"I'm dreaming of a GREEN-FISKARS-HAND-DRILL, just like the one Don-na Down-ey haaassssss"

Love.Want.Will have very soon!

HS is so stinkin' clever... first rub-ons in her handwriting, now STAMPS! 'Bout fell outta my skin when I saw her new clear word stamps at my local scrap store. Will have the entire line soon. Promise that one!

Love the Cafe Press stuff btw. Taking on "perfect just the way I create" as my personal mantra! :) Will own a shirt soon!

[Suzanne]

since I BOLO'd on all your giveaways yesterday, I consoled myself with pre-ordering almost everyone of the new Heidi Swapp roller stamps. Your enabling is awful! I just swore on my blog YESTERDAY not to buy anything scrappy. I am WEAK, I tell ya! WEAK!!

:)

[debbie]

i have used those springy micro scissors Forever and feel sorry for people who don't. they are amazing. when people see my handcut lettering they always tell me they can't cut straight, etc. etc. yes you can! you just need these scissors.(and move the paper when cutting- not the scissors) i can tell they don't believe me, but, it's true!

[ScrappingMommyof3]

Saw that green drill at CKC Buffalo and TOTALLY had to HAVE it!!! The guy in the booth must have thought I was NUTS!

[Kristina Proffitt]

Oh you enabler you!! LOVE those Fiskar products! I gotta get that mat!! :)

[Brittnye]

Ok so now i have a problem...i cant order the mat from fiskers online, walmart no longer carries the craft mats and my LSS only carries up to 12x12 (pouts) where am i gonna get it now......any ideas ladies would be great!!!

[scrapfreak1]

you can try QVC for that mat.. i do believe anna griffin put her two cents in on a mat like this one.. i have that one and it's awesome...

lovin those heidi swapp stamps.. they are a steal.. the price is right and it's all good.. loving the fact that you can get exactly what you want for a couple of dollars.. i bought her acrylic stamps and block cost me a total of 10.00 .. two stamps at 1.99 and the block for 6.69.. talk about being happy.. just let me tell you hapy happy happy..

once again donna you ARE THE ENABLER.. and we love you for it.

[Kelly]

I have found the green fiskers drill at widgetsupply.com. I just got it in the last couple of weeks and it "rocks"!!

[Kelly Rodgers]

I got a tool! Might be old to you guys over there in the states.
It's a Crop-A-Dile. It's pink and gorgeous. So clever.
I love it!
Have a great day!
Love Kel XXX

Damn. I want to be Donna Downey when I grow up. ;) I am SO JEALOUS OF THAT GREEN DRILL AND PINK/GREEN MAT. DAMN YOU!! :)

[stephanie]

right after i got the black drill in the mail (after meeting you @ memory lane, i had to have one!) fiskars started to send the green ones out. my friend lisa ordered and got a green one! but i am going to put some ribbon on the handle of mine to give it some PIZZAZZ. best tool i have brought this year!

i have been seeing some other colorful fiskars items over at target and have been quite impressed. thanks for sharing!

[candi]

enabler...thanks. hehe. I have ordered much heidi stamps.

[Michelle M]

Micro tip scissors are my all time favorite! I used to do lot's of paper piecing. I was cutting morning till night, so many tiny pieces. I don't know what I would have done with out them. Love them!

[Jennifer Pebbles]

oooh, have you tried the fiskars squishy handle scissors??? They have ruined all other scissors for me...soooo comfortable!! Love that you bought all the stamps...they look pretty awesome!

[Jody]

I can NOT look at that drill without having...ummm...bad thoughts LOL

I can only imagine the smirks from the guys on the
x-ray machine at Sydney airport, as they scan that little beauty!!!!!!!

Of course that dosn't mean I don't want one!

[sue treiber]

love me some good product!!!!

[Maria]

Enabler you, LOL. Thanks for the tip on those stamps! I think I might have to get them too!!!! :)

[Lauren]

So Donna, are you just torturing us with this great cutting mat, or is it actually available out there in the marketplace yet??? Tried searching on the Fiskars website, but it only gives me generic places that carry Fiskars products in general. 'Cuz you KNOW everyone who reads your blog (and that's a lot of us!) is gonna' NEED one! Well, at least me anyway LOL!

[D@nielle]

You did say it was coming in green, I anxiously await it's arrival in the Netherlands !!! And yes I have the other fiskars scissors they are great, don't have the craft knive yet, will have to get that too ! grts, D@nielle

[Stephanie Homburg]

I need the mat. It will match my lime green donna downey thinks I rock tee shirt. And the other assorted lime goodness that has made its way into my room.

Is this available yet?

[Catherine Scanlon]

I just love that drill! I have been looking for them everywhere - but now I want the green one...YUMMMMY!

[May]

Being a brand ambassador for Fiskars... well this is just the kind of stuff I LOVE to see! =) Donna your favorite tools are mine too!!! Just got my mat yesterday, and I am SOOO in LOVE! (of course the scissors, drill, etc. too!!!)

[Kathleen]

Hey, did they made that drill look naughty on purpose so that we women will subconciously love it even more? MUWAAHAAHAA!! But seriously, that looks like a cool thing that I must have! I *heart* all my Fiskars stuff and I'm sure the drill rocks too. Thanks for sharing!

[Debbie Musick]

I just bought a new Fiskars scissor--the Titanium Nitride Mighty Snip. These are great for cutting wire, plastic,heavy card stock etc. They have serrated blades and are comfy to hold. I bought mine at Hancocks--check next time you are in one of the craft/fabric stores and try a pair. They're wonderful!

[Kara Wylie]

hey, I was at GASC in Arlington and what did my wondering eyes spy, but a pretty green drill....so it went home with me! And did you ever get my email with the beer pics??

~ Donna . . . I too love those Fiskars tools. Couldn't live without them. I'm dreaming up some fun things with the drill. My aunt just met Martha a couple of weeks ago and she used 'the mat.' Lovely!
