I went to the Michael's in Charlotte and the M's in Matthews and no cute valentine stamps or cute valentine punches yet. They are waiting for them to arrive and have the shelves all cleared off for them. Just waiting!!
LOL!!! RUN WITH THE WIND and get them stamps!!!!!!:mrgreen:
I have SEVERAL boxes full of the clear $1 stamps as they are only a buck, but hmmm, is there a reason WHY I never think to use them???? UGH!!!
But... I will be adding to my collection soon, perhaps while I am there I will pick up a new shoe box to store the new ones in!!!! :mrgreen:
Hey that's a GREAT reason to buy a pair of new shoes!!!! I just got a pair of new shoes and have the shoebox. Don't store my $1 clear stamps in that. I use one of those index card plastic holder box thingys. But this is how you recycle! Buy new shoes and then use the shoebox for the stamps. And then when your DH asks what's in the box you can say stamps and he can look confused like mine would. It's another perfect excuse when you can say "Aw, it's not full yet.":mrgreen:

I hit the jackpot at Michaels at lunch...I got all the new Inkadinkado bird/butterfly clear stamps..they are so cute. I am going to hit another one later tonight or tomorrow at lunch in search of the new wood ones. One of them is bound to have them...
blessings.
*sigh* Now WHY do I keep torturing myself whith these threads.. If I ever win in a lottery, I�m taking the first flight to US and go buy the nearest Michaels empty..
aww, that's too sad! Would it be worth the shipping to have someone send them to you?!?

LET ME KNOW LADIES and I will see what I can do!!! I'm off til Wednesday!!!! :mrgreen:
I really love your sunflower card on your blog. I wish I knew how to make cards like that. I ordered some copic markers and I have some prismacolors pencils to start off with. I am going to try the OMS on the prismacolors to see how my pictures come out after I color them in. It is so exciting to see your own work, especially when it comes out so professional.
Just when I thought I bought enough for now. LOL, when your making cards it will never be enough, I finally realized that. Now I have to have all this too, it looks wonderful.
I have been looking for valentines day stamps for a few days now. Nobody had want I want, I hope Michael's has them when I go back and still has the good sale going on when they do have them.
New discoveries at Michael's today. One of my Michael's stores had the new $1 Recollections Valentine stamps. I only bought a few of them but they had many more designs.
And my 2nd Michael's had a bunch of new Martha Stewart punches. I just picked up this beautiful large heart punch. This would make adorable ornaments! Oh, & this new grass edger punch.
Have a safe & Happy New Year everyone!! :mrgreen:
You too. And thank you for the heads up on this. Its just what I have been looking for.
I was just there earlier but I was with my son, so I couldn't look for long, I just had to get some prisamcolor pencils but they were out of the ones I wanted. I had my 40% coupon, and was ready to take the big plunge and buy the 89 dollar pack, but they didn't have them or the 36 pack. Anyway, I just decided to go with the 24 pack. I said I didn't need too many colors anyway, but I do need a skin color like light peach the peach I have is too dark for the skin I want to color.
They were unpacking boxes there too. With my luck they probably didn't have the valentines stamps out yet anyway, even if I did know they were there earlier.
Now, along with the Valentine's wood blocks...I got the cupid with the heart with the bee, a teddybear holding a heart, a bee with words Bee Mine in bold see through letters...just needed the cute ones. I have so many of other studio g stamps that havent even been inked...I figured I have enough phrases and all.
But thanks for the heads up on all the other stamps too.

My partner in crime and I hit Mikes on the way home from work yesterday. I got there before her and couldn't contain my excitment to find out if they had the new MS punches and dollar stamps in yet. I walk in all giddy and to my great surprise..........The racks were stocked!!!! Holding my breath, there was a lady standing in front of the punches, picking one up, looking at it, putting it back. I asked if she was buying any of them and she said...........NO, just looking. SCORE!!! They only had 2 of everything so I proceded to pretty much clean off the rack. One for me and one for my partner!!! Heart around the Page, Ladybug, Filigree Heart, a Flower Around the Page punch, I can't remember what else right now, and a WHOLE BUNCH of dollar stamps!!! In comes my buddy and takes her share of the loot. As were walking around the store we notice another lady has come in and took what punches that we left. BOY!! Am I glad I didn't wait to go in!!! Needless to say my friend and I are VERY happy owners of almost all of the new stuff! Best of all the girl that check us out let us use all of our 40% off coupons. One at a time of cource!! Now, how do I sneek all my new contraband into the house? Happy hunting Ladies!!

Oh My Goodness!!! Looks like my "partner in crime" beat me to the forum to tell about our goodies! I had been to M's on Monday to see that they had the racks and kiosks ready for the new freight. Glad we decided to go yesterday right after work. We love the thrill of the hunt....and it paid off big time! Already got all of my "contraban" in the house and checked to make sure all of the punches worked well! LOL
Oh....and the nice cashier thinks we have an addiction.......she has no idea!
I bought two of the marvy ones I think they are marvy they were on sale yesterday. They are expensive because you can't really just get one, you need one, then one more, then one more......
I got one of the new MS bigger hearts with the little flower type cut outs. They were $17.99 then minus the 40%. My sweet cashier let me have several seperate transactions so I could get all the punches I wanted. I also got the around the page heart punches I think they were $24.99 minus the 40%. It was a good day at the local Big Box Store.
blessings.
I stopped at M's and picked up a few of the Valentines stamps (had to restrain myself and only got 4 of them!). Here is one card I made quickly today with the cute Cupid stamp! :mrgreen:

The love the card, it is so cute. What color did you use for the skin color?
I ran down the street to my Ms and found a dozen $1 stamps that are perfect for various projects for my kids classrooms. I had only planned to get the stamps but discovered they had the Sizzix Texture Boutique Embossing Machine for $9.99. So naturally I had to grab one. It even came with 10 embossing folders.
I also picked up to paper packs that were marked down to $4 and a few misc items I found cheap for my daughter crafting/sleep over/birthday party on Saturday.
Has anyone seen $1 Easter stamps out anywhere yet? Or St. Patrick's Day?
well i went to a different michaels in the same location and bought more stamps these were a $1 im not sure why when i went to the 1st store they were 49 cents??
I am too sad now. I went to M and i didn't find any of those cute stamps,
and would of loved to have that heart punch too. Someday i will get lucky and
be there at the right time.

I saw a really nice martha stewart punch (heart lock with key) it was very nice, I want to go back and get it. I don't know why I didn't use my 40% coupon on it. It's just that they have so many nice ones and I can't decide which one to get out of all the choices but I think I will get that one.
