Smile NEW stuff at Michaels!!

I just popped into my local Michaels store and they have the new slim line paper punches from EK Success (the ones introduced at CHA). They had single image punches for $9.99 & cute border punches for $14.99. I didn't buy any..wanted to get home to research reviews first. They have a nice selection..I'm confused-don't know which one to get! I'm goin' back tomorrow to choose one & use my 40% off coupon. They also had new American Crafts paper packs including Metropolitan..very pretty & other new paper packs from various companies..looks like they're still filling the shelves with new stuff!! It's so exciting to see "new" stuff at Michaels..just wanted to share! Happy shopping everyone!! ;)

I've already bought two of the border punches...the fleur de lis and another curvy one with dots (can't remember name), and I love them! They are so much easier to punch than the Martha Stewart ones (weird that they are made by the same company!)

I, too, bought the fleur de lis and love it! I used my coupon, but have another to use so may go by there tomorrow.

Yes they will. I used to work for Michaels as an instructor and they take ACmoore and JoAnns as well.

I did go into Michaels today and saw all the nice punches. I would love to buy some but I ordered all the stamps the other day and have to wait a little.

If you are interested in depth chatter on the new EK Success foldable punches, check out the existing thread on the subject (I would link but don't know how to do that! :oops: )

Lots of people have been getting the bubble border and binder edge punches. The wavy line with pierced holes is also a favorite - I have that one and it's gorgeous! The only one that has been getting a consistent thumbs-down is the large zig-zag border with embossed stitch lines. Apparently the embossed lines are hard to see and they don't like the way it looks. I also picked up the small scallop border with the holes and it is beautiful....very dainty and a nice compliment to SU scallop border punch.

Slightly off topic, but does anyone have a link to the Michaels flyer and/or a coupon that starts tomorrow (2/2? I have searched the web and can't find one. Now back to your regularly scheduled thread...

Thanks

I saw a link to this on the announcements forum yesterday....again, I don't know how to link, but I'm sure it will be easy to find near the top of the page since it's time for weekend shopping. ;)

Thank you for sharing! I didn't know that Michaels accepted Joanns coupons too. I still have to decide which ones to buy. Never let a good coupon go to waste!
