Am I crazy or is this a third set of Clear Stamps? According to sellers on the bay it is a new third set. I've been to three diffrent stores and have found some from the first release and some from the second (pink) release. I have not seen any of these.
Who would have ever thought that these little guys would become so popular. I have the first 2 sets and now if this is another round I will definately have to have them.
From my understanding, this isn't really a "third" set - as in third release from Michaels - these are not carried by Michaels at all (from what I've read). I think that these are only carried at AC Moore and Joanns.

Yep, they are at Joann's. I just posted another thread about them. I'm kinda bummed just because they are coming out with them so fast it's hard to keep up.

I was just at Joann's and they had them there!!!!!!! I bought everyone they had, but I'm not sure how many are in this set. I'll have to scroll up and look. Was just toooooooooooooo excited to let you know.

I called Hampton Arts myself, and of course they gave me another # to call. These are discontinued sets that they are getting rid of. Michael's and whoever, never knows when or if they will continue to get them. At least that is what I was told. And no, these are not a "Michael's" brand, so really any store could get them in.
YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The cost of gas is going to eat me up looking for these $1.00 stamps!!!!!!
Say it ain't so!!! These stamps are definitely not at Michael's. These are at the other stores and I don't have one close by..thank God! LOL Good luck to those of you that get them.
Why are they discontinued? Are they crazy or what???
I think they are just left over stamps that they may have had an abundance of. I really don't know, but they will keep sending the sets out, I guess, until they are gone. Now that is what the rep. told me, so I don't know if it is "GOSPEL". I think they say anything if they don't know the answer. As long as they keep sending, I'll keep buying.
At Joann's, I found them at the end of an isle in the scrapbooking section with other wooden dollar stamps and tiny stamp pads. They were hanging on a few hooks. If fact, I walked right passed it at first, so you have to look for them very carefully. They were by the textured scrappaper-The stacks.
I went to my local Micaels and found quite a few of the pink packaged ones, then decided to go to another town and just see if the Michael's there had any. Well they did, a bunch of the multi-colored first set.
But I didn't see any of the ones in the pictured in the first post. Must keep on the look out for them!!
Hi everyone, thanks for contacting me, but all of the sets are spoken for, unless there are some individual ones you are looking for, I have been able to fulfill a few people's "dreams" here, I am glad I could find these for you guys, and I will keep looking, if I get more, i will let ya know! Otherwise, only PM if you want some individual ones. I have:
Wedding one: Has Your special day, cherish, forever and always, 2 hearts and a ring (6)
Bday: Make a wish, party, gift, cake (2)
Thinking of You: Thinking of You, for you, 3 flowers (1)
Boy set: Being a kid, boy, bug, cat, and boy pix (6)
Girlfriends: Girlfriends, hello, drink, 2 flowers (3)
I haven't seen the second ones yet at MiCHAELS. never mind a third.

OMG!!!!! I have both sets from Michaels, now I have to watch out for Joanns?
That's ok though, because I live 5mins away from Michaels, Joanns & Hobbly Lobby.
I have the first from Michaels. Went today and they didn't have nada one of any kind!!!! Neither did my ACM or JOAnns...go figure!!!!!!!!!

wHAT COLOR PACKAGES ARE THEY. We just finally got the second set in which are the pink ones. So I picked up 8 of them in all. Now I'm keeping my eyes open for the third set. So if someone could let me know what color or colors they are that would be great.

Just in case anyone lives in the state of Oklahoma. My Joann's in OKC is the smallest and junkiest store I have ever been in. I went there today to look for those other "g" studio clear stamps that was mentioned b4. They dont have squat there, so far as scrapbooking goes. Anyways, I'm still looking for the 3rd set myself. They didnt even bother to say hello either..I wasnt my hour to get there.

I just got back from our biggest Joann's in Denver, they didn't have the $1 clear stamps, nor did the smaller stores by my house. I do have both sets from Michaels though....I guess that's a good thing. Oh well..........
I'll just have to keep looking, it's hard when I have to shop with my little girls, it just makes it harder....especially when everyone looks at you & they're not listening.

I hear you, Bonnie. I have been to that same store, and it is pretty pathetic. The clerks are so bored and disinterested too.
I was there a day or so ago trying to spend a 50% coupon that I got in the mail. I literally could not find anything I wanted at that store. Pretty sad.

That's too funny, because when I first moved here from out of state..and got to know my neighbors. I asked them to save their coupons from Joanns. You are correct. I couldnt find anything to buy that looked interesting to use all my 50% off coupons for. So, instead now..when I get them..I send them to Colorado where my sister lives..

Went to my JoAnn's today and got the third set. Last week they said they were behind in getting stuff on the shelves because of the sale - had a lot of extra boxes in the back. Maybe your JoAnn's will get some - ours is SLOWLY improving...They had a bunch of new wood-mounted $ stamps too.
I can check back and see if they have anymore sets left. pm me if you're interested...
Mostly these have hit West coast and mid west. I called Joann's here in Colorado they should be coming in next week set 3. Some of the Michaels stores have gotten in set 2. It depends on the manager ordering them in. So start asking for them.
Argh - it is frustrating to find these... I live in the middle of two Michaels - and they just don't seem to cater to the stamper. I have yet to see either set.....

Hello...there are 16 of each so far...you are correct..I heard though with the 3rd set..there are 10...be on the look out for those..I believe they sell them at Joanns...or AC Moore if you live on the East coast. Did you happen to notice the stamp set that says "litte" note...it should read "little", its the one that has a stem with 3 other flowers that would go on there..all you do is write to the company which is www.hamptonart.com and click on consumer contact, make a comment..give them your address, then they'll mail you a replacement one..
look at the above posted comment by myself (okstamper)
Good luck
Bonnie

I just received this from the Consumer Contact from Hampton Art. This was a
quick response because I just emailed her this morning.
Please accept our sincerest apologies for the 'little' die misprint. We
are in the process of re-manufacturing the set. We apologize for the
inconvenience. A replacement will be mailed next week to the address you
have noted. Thank you for your patience.
There will be new clear sets arriving at Micheal's in a few weeks...and
probably new releases throughout the year.

I have a total of 16 of these in the pink pacakage...
what am I missing?
There are 2 sets from Michael's each set has 16 stamp sets and 2 acrylic mounts. One set was a variety of colors, the 2nd is all pink.
Then there is another set that I found at JoAnns (other people have mentioned that they are also at AC Moores). This set has 10 stamps sets and 2 mounts. These are the multi colored packages again, (but still different stamp sets).
So I have a total of 42 sets. Believe it or not I'm hoping that's it, because the search drove me crazy.
