I was at Joann's last Saturday and found three sets of clear stamps by Inkadinkado. There were about 92 stamps in each set. They sell for $19.99 but were 40% off so I got them for $12. Each set had an alphabet, a set of phrases and a set of images. This allowed me to pass up most of the new $1 clear stamps at Micheals.
I used a Scrapbook Activity case from Target to store all but the alphabets from the three set in.
I have attached photos of the three different sets.
I bought two sets today at AC Moore for around $5.99 each...they were normally $12 something sets but I've seen so many cute samples here that I had to try them. Even though I'm not really an acrylic fan, it's EO for me when it comes to stamps!!

I got those sets too!! Man, i was stampin on everything in site for a couple of weeks! Now that we've heard that CD cases aren't good for clear stamps (yellowing), I'm kinda getting paranoid about what to put these little suckers in. But that sure looks like a great way to store a bunch of them (shoot, here I go back to Target....). LOL
Are these acrylic stamps the cheap kind or are they good quality? I do not like it when the ink beads up on the cheap ones. I love the designs though! Thanks for sharing/ enabling!

I can't speak for others, but I have all kinds/prices of clear stamps. In my opinion, they all stamp well. In fact, some of the inexpensive ones look a little better than some of the expensive name-brands clear stamps. I think the difference is the right kind of ink, i.e. pigment or chalk inks, and the pressure you apply when stamping.
I get crisp, clear images with most of my clear stamps, even the $1 from Michaels.

They are Inkadinkado. I actually think they are a "this 'n that" assortment from lots of their other stamp sets; there are definitely several Brenda Walton stamps in there. One set is called "Friendship" (my fav-lots of butterflies, birds, etc), another is called "Occasions", and the last is called "Spring". There are SO many great images, and sentiments, I just could not choose between them (and I bought them on a week they were not on sale! Just had one 40% coupon to use on one set). But even full price ($19.95) is uner $7 per set.
IMO they are very good quality (photopolymer), but just like virtually ALL clear stamps I have, you need to use the good old eraser (or fine sandpaper) to get the "sheen" off, then they stamp GREAT.

I have the first and third set pictured and I love them too! I think I paid $12 a set also. So very worth it! The sentiments are fantastic! I love the font and the sentiments themselves are just great.

I have a very small Joann's here - never has anything, but I will check anyway they look like a good mix of images at a great price!
For those of you who don't have a Super Joann's, I just spotted these sets on ebay (NOT my auctions!). The seller misspelled the brand as Inkadindado (a"d'' where there should be a "k"). I wasn't sure if posting eBay URL's is allowed, but if you do a search with that spelling, it should come up. I just LOVE mine so much, I thought it might be useful for anyone who is really wanting those sets.
