Any of you have it yet? I saw it a few weeks ago on QVC and decided that I absolutely NEEDED it! lol Actually, when I bought it (got it at M's for about $12 with the coupon), I was wondering why the heck I bought it and if I would ever use it. Believe it or not, It has been one of my most used tools this weekend!!! I have been using a lot of charms and tags lately, and this is the perfect tool to attach them!!! It's sort of like a tagger gun that they use at clothing stores, except for the plastic things (maybe they are called tails???) on the paper tagger are a lot shorter. I used it on some of the CJ layouts and stuff that I did, so Amanda and Sarah, you will get to see how it is used ;D I think it was definately worth the $12!!! I used it and mainly attach charms to bows and stuff. Very cute!!! Here is what it looks like:  |

I have one and so far don't like it at all. all of my little taggie things are snapping off when I try to use them. I think I'm putting them in the gun the right way (is there a wrong way?)

There can be a wrong way, I haven't had any trouble with them. Basically the long strip that the tag things are attached to needs to go in the back, closest to the inside of the gun. i watched them demo it on QVC so I learned how to do it. Then when you press it through the paper or ribbon, make sure you push it all the way until you see it go through the back side. I haven't had any trouble at all with it! Then again, I worked in 5 clothing stores and got LOTS of experience with taggers! LOL!!! Maybe if you look online there will be detailed instructions with photos. If you can't find any, I'll try to take some later with mine so you can see the right way to do it to make sure you are doing it right!  |

Yup, I'm putting them in the right way then. I have another tagger type thing that is used for basting quilts, and I don't have a problem with that one. Maybe I'll see if these tags will fit in that one!

Where did you buy yours? Maybe you got a faulty tagger! i'd take it back and exchange for a new one and see if it works better! I love mine so far!!! It's so much easier than attaching charms with those metal rings!!! Those drive me up the wall! I hate using pliers!!!!

I got it at AC Moore. I don't have the packaging or receipt anymore, so I don't think I can return it.

Well duh Kathy! Go out and gety ou one because you DO need it! lol Just like I needed it! haha Actually, it's worth the $12 I spent at M's. If you have a 40% coupon you can use it on that. The one I got only comes with the tagger and the taggy things, I bought extra ones for $4. It didn't come with the charm looking things, but those aren't hard to make or find somewhere. I thought i could use this with some of those doodlebug and queen & co tag its that I have bought and never used!

We don't have an AC Moore, so I don't know their policy, but I know some stores will let you take it in and say hey, I got this here, threw away the packaging and stuff, and it doesn't work, all I wanna do is exchaange it for another. They might do it. I still have my packaging if you want it! lol You might be able to take it to a Michaels and do that since that's where I got it! I might even have the receipt! Say it was a gift or something! lol |

Ooooh...I am all over this tagger thing-y! LOL
I posted over on MM that we found out over the weekend that relocating to Germany is a definite thing. We think we'll be over there by the beginning of August. So last night, DH was looking at everything that I have decided I "need" to take with us ~ you know, all my scrapbooking stuff ~ and he tried to gently tell me that I may have to leave some of it behind. I just burst into tears. I don't know why....I just did. It was like some horrific thing out of a really bad romance novel...anyway, he felt so bad that he told me I could take whatever I want to! LOL
So...I am "in need" of the TAGGER! ROFLOL
How are you feeling, Em?

Hey! That tagger will fit in your carry on bag!!! LOL!! You can hide it from him! Wait, it's a sharp object, maybe you shouldn't put it in your carry on bag! lol But it's small!!! So it's worth taking!
I've been feeling great! I've actually been scrapping a lot lately! Still no morning sickness! Woo hoo!!

I am happy to hear you're feeling good. I never had morning sickness with my daughter and I felt great through my whole pregnancy. Wait until about your 28th week...you'll have the sudden urge to clean everything in sight! LOL It just comes out of nowhere and grabs you and it's like you were born to do windows or something. Thankfully, it only lasts a short time and then all is back right with the world again! ROFLOL |

I haven't felt like cleaning at all. Adam did the dishes for me in exchange of me typing up his resume!!! What a great trade, huh? LOL |
