Last week I received a package in the mail from my friends at Wacom and I've been eagerly waiting for the contents to be revealed on the Wacom site today so I could share the news with all of my digital scrapping friends! What am I so excited about? This package full of goodness that is TRULY designed for the digital scrapbooker and/or photo enthusiast!
Seriously, when it comes to a great deal, it just doesn't GET any better than this! Along with the Bamboo Fun pen tablet the box contains:
- A 26-session training DVD from Jane Conner-ziser and Software Cinema showing you how to use the you pen with the software included in the box
- A 28-page instructional book called Scrappin' With A Tablet by Amanda Dyken to help you jump right into digital scrapbooking and art projects
- A fun Digi-Scappin' CD of complimentary embellishments
- Adobe® Photoshop® Elements (6.0 WIN/5.0 MAC), the perfect application for editing photos
- Corel® Painter™ Essentials 4.0 for designing you own artwork and embellishments
- Nik® Color Efex Pro™ for adding unique photo effects to your digital photos
- Free 1-year Subscription to Scrapbooking & Beyond Magazine
- Free 8" x 8" hard-cover, professionally-bound Photo Book from Shutterfly
- Free online store so that you can sell your artwork or creations with Café Press and $15 off you first purchase of $50 or more
Whether you're looking for an easy way to improve your digital photos, make your own scrapbook embellishments, or take the leap into digital scrapbooking, Bamboo Craft is the perfect tool to help you touch up digital photos, draw by hand, create artwork and paintings, and even write in your own handwriting.
When I got my first pen tablet I have to admit that it served as an expensive paper weight for some time ... simply because I didn't understand what I could do with it ... or HOW to use it. Judging by the messages I saw posted in various scrapbooking forums, I wasn't alone either. The introduction of the Bamboo Craft package is an indication that Wacom listened ... and answered our pleas for help!
I really can't say enough about how impressed I am with this package. If you've been intruiged by the idea of working with a pen tablet now is the time to act! The Bamboo Craft is a limited edition package and currently only available for sale via Wacom's site here. With Valentines Day just around the corner it might be time to start dropping a few hints! :)
Ooooh pattie, off to have a look. I am using mine, but only for little things, I know I should be doing a lot lot more. But I'm in love with it and that's the main thing!!

Hi Pattie,
Wow, what a nice package from Wacom. Is this tablet any different from the first Bamboo Tablet that came out last year? How much do you use your tablet?
Thanks.
