I think my hobby is really collecting, since I collect more than I use! So, yes I will likely buy more new Christmas ones this year. Oh, and I have already bought more new Halloween!
I usually pick up or order 2-3 new Christmas stamps each year...sadly, I find new stuff inspiring and the old stuff is just what I use to help the new stuff stay at the top of the pile!

Lol, I so know what you mean- my Beloved Husband swears I was a squirrel in a former life!

Oh YES, can I relate to this! I probably have more Christmas stamps than any others, but that won't / doesn't stop me from getting MORE!!!!I suffer from the belief that " you can't have too many stamps" and "I've never met a stamp I haven't liked...at least at the time it was bought".
Have Stamp Club tonight and am buying one. Plan on buying one in November too. Plus I have one that I bought last year and never got around to using. I bought Dasher last year. Used him a lot and I am sure I will this year too.
I have been trying to not buy any new stamps. Period. I have somewhere around 1200 individual stamps and I think I may have only used about maybe 100 of them for cards (I tend to use a lot of digi stamps too). I'm a sucker for anything Christmas, so probably about 20% of my stamps are Christmas stamps and I only send out 10 cards (5 of 2 different designs) every year. So I have enough Christmas stamps to last me another 100 years...
You say you have 1200 stamps (wow) ever think of selling some?? I'm new to card making and need to build up my stash hopefully you can help...

Eyesonchgo05, this thread is seven years old, so you may not get a response. There's a Buy/Sell/Trade section of the forum where you can find all sorts of fabulous things available. Have fun building up your stash!
I really like when old threads pop up again. I enjoy reading back and comparing it to what people would say today. Some things never change. Lol. I didn’t realize that Dasher stamp was so old. Gosh time sure flies.
To answer the original question, I buy quite a few new Christmas stamp sets every year! I'm an SU demo, so I do that as part of my business, but I also hate mass producing, so most of my Christmas cards are one-of-a-kind. Sometimes I'll make 2-4 that are the same, but not often. ;-o

I didn't realize Dasher was that long ago either, but I spent time looking through all of my Christmas stamps the other day looking for him and I can. not. find. him. - ugh! I know I didn't get rid of that stamp but haven't used it in quite a few years; wonder where he's hiding : (

Dasher is in training for his big flight with Santa on Christmas Eve.
