So I heard on SCS that Michaels came out w/ a TON of new Valentine $1 stamps (of course $1.50 in Canada). A picture was posted of them too and they are SO cute!! I posted that I prolly won't be able to get my hands on them b/c Michaels is over an hour away from me and I don't get to the city very often. ETA - here's a link to the thread - Michaels Valentine Stamps - the picture of them all is in post #11.
WELL....a SUPER cool, awesome, wonderful person (HUGS to Kelly!!!!!) offered to go to her local Mikes (she lives on the same street!!! How fab is that??) and see if she could get them for me and then just mail them to me!!
Of course I said yes - and she was able to get me ALL the new stamps (I guess there's 17 sets - they're the little ones again so they are packs of 2, so really 34 stamps!) and I just sent her the $$ for them. I was SO pleased to be able to get them all b/c knowing my luck if I WAS able to get to Mike's they would have been sold out or really picked over.
Well the parcel arrived yesterday and not only did she send the stamps - but she got me a couple of those CUTE little tin mailboxes from the Target Dollar Spot!! WooHoo!!!
I've been SO envious of all the ppl that have been getting those mailboxes - we don't have a Target in Canada so I knew I'd never get my hands on them - but now I have two!! :o) And she sent me this adorable little love note too - this totally made my day! THANK YOU Kelly!!
So....LATE last night I sat at my desk and fiddled around w/ my new stamps and my CuttleBug (of course). I was running through scraps of CS and the embossing folders (isn't that the funnest?? LOL soon I'm prolly gonna have a foot-high pile of embossed CS!!!) and then used another one of my 2x2 dies - this time the scalloped squares one:
