For my Birthday I received a gift card to my favorite store. If I had a lot of money, I could have put it towards a new lens or camera, but since I don’t have a lot of money, I wanted to buy myself something I would normally not buy. And it had to be paid for in full by the gift card.
So, this is what I bought.
A Wacom Bamboo Pen Tablet. It was on sale, complete with free shipping.
I have but one complaint. I can’t use it on my lap. So I have waited until today to set it up and take it out of the box, because I had to clean up my sewing table/craft desk/office. It took me all week to get stuff put away and tidied up enough that I could sit comfortably and break out the tablet.
I actually moved the sewing machine out of the way completely, which in itself is very bizarre as I sew almost every day or two. At least a couple times a week. This is just a temporary situation, until I get this room organized properly.
I am quite excited about this as Mac’s have several applications that a tablet can be used with. And most of all I can use it when editing photos. Will I use it a lot? I don’t know yet, but it sure is fun.
For the record I am not a drawing artist, but I can scribble now and then.

Ah, that answers my question! It looks really neat, can’t wait to see what fancy things you make with it:)
oh, how fun!!!! good for you.
Congrats on the Bamboo. I bought myself an Intuos3 this past summer. I really love it but unfortunately I haven’t taken the time to fully use it. It has made working on a few projects much easier and more fun.
So, you’re a Mac person? I have been toying with the idea of purchasing a Mac laptop.
Have fun getting to know your Bamboo.
That looks like a nifty tool! I hope you have fun with it and that it takes you down lots of creative paths.
I love the idea of this product. I think I might have to try and get myself one too!
