Thanks for posting !! Wow, I mean could they be coming out with something all the time!?? I can't keep up. Still haven't gone to look for Halloween ones!
My Michaels doesn't have them yet. I want the set that has a Santa hat. It might fit the people in the All in the Family set. I can put little hats on them for the holidays! That would be cute. Do you know when these new sets will be released?
These are really cute. Some are so similar to the $1. rubber wood mounted stamps they used to sell. I would have to really look thru them cause I don't need almost identical stamps. I'm not too worried about my M's ever getting them. There have been no Halloween stamps, in fact, we're still waiting for the summer rubber ones... I wanted that BBQ grill really bad! Oh well... I guess it's a good thing, I have a very limited craft budget. TFS!
May God bless, Sandi

I was in Michaels last week somewhere in NJ, and they had a great Halloween 'display', but just with the wood $1.00 ones, and 99 cent stickers... wow, I wanted it all! I am off to the Michaels here at home to see what they have. The NJ one did have some of the new baby acrylic stamps.
Thanks for sharing! Oh why, oh why does it seem that the Michael's closest to me is the last one in the nation that seems to get new items--I am very impatient--LOL.
So all the christmas boxes are there.. sitting on the floor... but not opened... they had stocked some of the Christmas stuff.. so I'll circle back to M's tonight
None at the Michael's by my house either. They didn't have any new ones at all. Not even Halloween. I'll have to check back regularly. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for the heads up. I was at Micheal's yesterday and they didn't have them. They did have the cute Halloween stamps. Hope they get some cute rubber stamps in soon.
I don't want to burst any bubbles but I got clear acrilic stamps at the dollar spot at Michaels a little while back. (not these christmas ones) and when I stamped them it did nothing but smoosh the image. Not good quility at all. I took back the ones I didn't open. If you compare them to papertrey ones you'd see the difference right away. Let me know if these are different though. It'd be great!!! thanks and good luck.

Yeah, I agree there is a difference!!! I just put all my $1 Michaels's acrylic stamps in CD cases so I played with a few and I could tell a difference. But there is a learning curve. If you push down hard it smooshes the whole image but if you press lightly...mine worked really good...I was kind of impressed for a BUCK!! Papertrey's are fabulous though and you don't have to even think about it...you get a perfect image every time...BUT, they are not a buck!!! They are high quality and worth every penny IMO. It is like comparing apples to oranges. But I am addicted to stamps so I will be stalking Michaels for the Christmas ones anyway! LOL!

I use pigment ink for these clear ones. It works alot better then our classic ink.

I completely agree. Different inks work great with these! And for a buck you can not beat the selection! Also agree that papertrey is hands down the best quality clear stamps that I have. I never have to think about the ink I use! Can't wait until my mikes gets the new Christmas ones. Unfortunately they are the slowest around. Sometimes they never get them. But hopefully they will
My Michael's didn't have the halloween $1 stamps where they normally keep the $1 stamps...they had them in with racks of other halloween themed stuff. So make sure you aren't just missing them at your store...they may be in another location. Haven't seen the Christmas ones yet though.
Checked another Michaels and no Halloween or Christmas... but I did get one that has a hanger on it and the phrase Hang In There which I thought was cute!
Oh these are too cute for words! There goes $24 flying out of my pocket! I did not see these at my local store tonight when I was there. But I did still see 3 racks of the 4th series of Studio G clear stamps. And lots of the rubber ones. I think the halloween ones were rubber and in the scrapbook aisle?
Oh yea, they are so cute... but...I'm gonna be more judicious this time with the 1$ sets. Yes, they are cheap but last time they put a bunch out, I spent $7 and have yet to use any them. I think I'll save my money for the SU sets I want on from my list and pick and choose carefully which Mikes' ones I will truly use.
They are cute. I managed to get these last month in The Paper Mill shop here about $3 a pack over here.
I agree they aren't as good quality as some and squishy but I practice on a peace of scrap paper first to make sure I have the correct stamping consistency then off I go. I love the small words in the packets.
