okay ladies - probably the strangest request I've ever made...but I am desperately searching for these to replenish my stock.
Mrs. Grossmans - that anyone who started scrapping with Creative Memories probably remembers. We used to buy them at the local stores off a big roll, and you tore one perforrated hunk - and paid like $.25 - $.75 per hunk, based on the size.
Remember these. Most of them are small - tiny bandaids, tiny little sea creatures, itty bitty baby toys, small Christmas trees, little cameras and suitcases...I need all of them!
My stock is greatly depleted, and I usually find a fresh stock from friends around here locally who are former CM consultants. They usually had books of them that they sold to customers or used at crops.
I use them for "100 things I LOVE" projects, and my big huge stash is really getting low. I thought if you had a stash somewhere gathering dust in a bin or book - you might LOVE the chance to unload them.
PM me if you know what I'm talking about - LOL - and/or have odds-n-ends of these that you'd love to get rid of!

I will send you a few Susan. Let me know if any of them work for you. Small band-aids I did not have but found two on another sticker sheet will send but think they may be too small. I have the mini QK band-aid die so could make you a few of those in different colors if you want. Deborah

Suz, I can't get to my stickers right now, but I will check in a few weeks when that part of the basement is accessible again. I'm pretty sure that I have all those that you listed and I never used them much, even in my sticker days.
But there are several listing on evil bay for just a few dollars that are lots. You may have some luck there. There is one for $40 (ouch!), but there are several under $5. That may be a way to replenish your stock quickly.

You may have some luck there. There is one for $40 (ouch!), but there are several under $5. That may be a way to replenish your stock quickly. hahah - I am bidding on several of them!!! What's killing me is the $.99 bids with $2.75 shipping. SERIOUSLY? They'll ship in a $.44 envelope! I hate eBay for this reason. People just sticking it to others on the shipping. Come on - I'm taking something off your hands that you're not using. Make a buck or two and let me reimburse you for a stamp and an envelope...and be happy with your buck or two profit. Oh well, thanks ladies! If you have any that are tiny, tiny, small Mrs. Grossman's stickers - I'll take 'em. I will GLADLY send you a self addressed stamped envelope if you have a couple of sheets...and I might stick a goodie or two in there for your troubles! {wink, wink} The smaller the better...Deborah the QK bandaid is way too big...I don't ever use anything bigger than 1"x1" - and I prefer the stickers that are .5" in size. When I think of how many of those I threw away in my early years because they were "too small for anything I'd ever do" I could just scream! LOL...hence the reason we hoard now - right?!?!?!? thanks ladies - if you find anything let me know...you can email me at scrapylandsusan@gmail.com or PM me - which ever is easier! I will gladly reimburse you your postage plus a little something extra - just let me know! THANKS!

Susan, I was a Red Heart store, and all the rolls are in my basement packaged in plastic. I have your info thanks to the Birthday Swap. I can't get to it until my work week is over (wednesday at earliest) but I will get you a stash together by the end of the week! Please don't bid on eBay until you get these from me because, well, it will be worth your while!

WOW who knew I'd get such a "sticker response" from a die-cutting community! I LOVE IT! I use litty teeny-tiny stickers ALL of the time on these projects!!! And just in case you're trying to get a visual on what I do...here is a picture... and you can see lots of Mrs. Grossman stickers on either of these: hearts iron footprints binoculars hamburger music notes life preservers quilt stars tomato excellent stars grapes phones pumpkin treat buckets plane tickets hotel keys mixing bowls confetti cocktails veggies fruit I am not looking for freebies - I will totally reimburse you postage and pay for the stickers, or swap you goodies!!!! But it's time for the holiday orders to start rolling in...and I am seriously depleted in the sticker department!! THANKS to anyone who can help me by clearing out their old stashes. Let me know, send me a PM, or an email, and I'll make it worth your while!!!!

Since our best LSS went under I have resorted to ebay. I love Mrs. Grossman's and like that I could buy the ones in the number I wanted at that store. I know why you love them. Sorry to say greedily ( shameful but true ) that I could never past with any of mine. I could part with something else of it is needed/wanted.

Those shadow boxes are really nice. Lots of work but very personal. Sending a few small items, I ran a few band-aids off, I have the mini and it is very small . I ran a few colors off for you but if you want more just give me a shout. You will have fun sorting all the goodies out. Take care.

Okay, I am going to look though my sticker and see what I can send you. It has been bothering me that I didn't want to part with a few stinkin' sticker, that I "was" that selfish and greedy. That's not who I am or a person I want to live like. I am even going to part with some I love for you. You are always so helpful. I do have my sticker all in the same box so I just need to open the boxes that don't say Stamps on them and I will find them fast. Can you pm me your address Susan. Sorry again.

Susan, those 100 reasons pages are just wonderful! I am sad to say that I must have given mine to another good home (a school teacher). Sounds like the SL Divas have come through. Karen

I will look too- but Daughter may have stuck them all over the place a few years ago. Those where our favorite thing to buy. We would go to the "Sticker Store" (LSS) and she would always want to get a few. They were cheap enough and filled the need to buy something. Cindy

Same thing with my kids, Cindy! I think over the course of the years, we may have purchased an entire roll of the tiny ice cream cones. Esp DS--he loved those. I would have to stick them on his hands and then he would cry when they would fall off. Ah, fun times!

In the process of looking for something else recently, I ran across my DD's collection of stickers from her junior high days...all carefully stuck down in a couple of notebooks! I'm thinking that they need to go to the owner's home, which would give me some extra space for my (cough, cough!) "collections"! ;D
