Today I was in Michaels just browsing, and they had a whole bunch of new clear Studio g stamps in the dollar bins. They have a set for each month. They are really cute. I bought all 12 months.

Not really, but they were so cute I had to get them. I've never had good luck with getting clear sharp images with acrylic stamps. I'm going to try some of the tips that people have given .... rub an eraser on the image, "season" the stamp by stamping with versamark, then clean, then stamp in ink.

Alrighty then . . . looks like I'll have to go to M's this week and see if I can nab a set of those -- they're dang cute!! I'm thinking they'd help make a really darling calendar.
As for the $1 stamps stamping, I've never had a problem using them with my SU ink. Usually, if 1 is trying to give me grief, I'll ink it up and stamp it on scratch paper repeatedly until it's stamping nicely, sometimes cleaning it between inkings. They sometimes feel like they have an oily residue on them and once that's gone, they work just fine.
I know there have been posts about alphabet sets. Unfortunatley the closest Michaels often is pretty low and has a dismal stamp stock but I can usually find a better selection in the one 30mins away (not with these gas prices) or in AC Moore.
These are adorable!!!!!! I was just at Micheal's and didn't see them, but really wasn't looking to good ...I must have not been feeling good hahahah...today they are having 25% off all stuff even if it's on sale I guess I'll have to go --- I too have not had any problems with the $1 stamps thanks for the tips tho
This is the number and alpha sets I also got (also series 12). they don't match. I wish the alpha set had been italics like the numbers but oh well ... can't complain for $1 :-)

The "Proud to Be American" stamp that I used on the background of this card is from the July set. I bought the set just for that stamp! LOL. For $1 it's worth it.

Hello all! I couldn't pass this up...even though my Michael's was missing both October and December <frown>. Can anyone possibly help out a fellow stamper?

Gayla, which two friends are you sharing these with? Me??????????
My Michale's store doesn't have them :( They only had a few of the St. Patrick's Day clear $ stamps. But I'll be sure to look again when I'm there next time.
Yup, when I realized they had all 12 months I had to get them. They are cute. I was not surprised to see a thread about them!
I bought one of the alphas too. I had to cut them down to use them. They worked pretty well although a couple of the letters don't seem to "stick" well.

Well so far my M's hasn't had these . . . I've checked 3 times since this thread was posted. Unfortunately, my M's (which just opened this year so you'd think it might be better) takes forever to get stuff. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they'll eventually show up there.
i got them all and then some lol.
i got all 12 months, there was a huge selection and i also got some random cute flowers, a small acrylic block and one more set that i cant remember.
if you live in the valley go to the Michaels on Zelzah and Chatsworth... zip code is 91344 (i think)
they had all of the months and other sorts of sets.
I got all but July, October and December. If someone could help me out, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Bumping to see if anyone can help me out with the months of July, October and December.

did you want some one to buy it for u then mail it to you for whatever it costs?
i can probably do it then. but it would probably come out to like 5-7 dollars since the post office has gotten so expensive nowadays :/
Did anyone have trouble finding July, October or December ??? I picked up extras for someone but they didn't need them anymore. Let me know. Just $1.00 plus postage. Will not charge you tax.
PM me :-)

Anyone need December, numbers, Uppercase letters, or lowercase letters? I will need payment for postage (Priority Mail�)=($4.80) and stamp sets ($1 each).
Michaels $ clear stamps for each month!!
I just found the series 11 clear stamps about two weeks ago. I really like the alphabet set, bought one, then realized I should get more of those for phrases and multiple letters in single words. Went back and had a hard time finding a couple more of those particular sets. I too have had so-so luck with the clear $ stamped images. But am going to do the eraser, versa mark tricks next time I use them. They are just too cute and cheap to pass up
Are there number sets too?
