favorite hybrid stuff?

[mommyofphoenix07]

Well, I have a bit of spare cash laying around with Christmas money from family and all and I've really been wanting to get more into hybrid. Thinking of going to Michael's or JoAnn's tomorrow (the only local scrapbook supply stores I know of) to get some necessities for getting into hybrid.

Can I get any recommendations? Not the Cricut or anything that monstrous yet, my interest is still only in infancy at this point, so that will come later, I'll stick to a craft knife for now if it works as a substitute, but what are some good general things for a shopping list? I'm thinking ric rac, string, buttons, and ribbons of different types for sure, but...any other major needs? I wanna create some nice tangible things...maybe cards.
