Bargain Stamps from Hobby Lobby and Michael's

Since 3M has decided to change the tips on their Scotch Quick-Dry Adhesive bottles, I decided to drive to Oklahoma City yesterday morning, go to Hobby Lobby and Michael's to search for the old style bottles.

That's the good thing about being retired...you can make these spur of the minute decisions to blow the entire day shopping and never miss a deadline! LOL!

I was able to find some of the old style bottles at Michael's and headed over to Hobby Lobby with my 50% off coupon in hand.  Why is it whenever you have a good coupon that everything you'd spend the coupon for is already on sale?  I did find this set of stamps on clearance and picked them up.





 I made this card today to use up some paper scraps, twine and to play with the new stamps.




These were my bargains from Michael's.  Don't know yet what I'll use the "legs" stamp for but I had to buy that set because of the shoes..

The paper pack is probably one that's been out for a while.  It has some good pages of birdhouses and birds so it will be good for my spring and summer cards.  I figured I could use the stamps with the birdcage with some of the paper from this stack too.
