Poor girl prolly hasn't heard of credit cards. LOL!
I have my humongous pickle jar filled with change waiting for the SU new catty introduction. I used to only buy SU, it was like the only stamp company in the universe and then I slowly started turning.
Who here said their DH had the brilliant idea to add everything up and find out what has been spent on this stamping obsession? Foolish man! If it ever gets too bad for me I'll just buy DH a bass fishing boat to even things out . . . maybe. You could fit a lot of rubber into a bass boat.
I have some bellas. One Outlines stamp I had a lot of fun playing with and would like to buy some more. Autumn Leaves, Stampendous, Inky Antics, and a ton of stuff on my wish list. I like those vegetable dresses from Lockhart. I click on Lizzie Ann and Papertrey, Impression Obsession . . . and wait until I have a little money to spend. A few House Mouse, one Fluffles. And random stamps I pick up at stamp stores on vacation or trips to visit friends. (What do friends do? Help each other shop for stamp supplies!)
I like to have them out just to look at them. Many I've never used yet, but they are such fun to look at and dream about!
They are all super cute an mostly line art...I love to color, so they are perfect for me...and I am on the DT for Eat Cake and Hambo...(so I obviously LOVE them...now if only Whipper Snapper would call me...giggle!)

Anyone looking at my gallery lately would know that I'm obsessed with the Penny Black cute animal line! I can't seem to stop buying them, and love, love, love coloring them![IMG]//www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/images/icons/icon12.gif[/IMG]

When I first started stamping, I bought anything and everything. Problem was, none of it coordinated, and I got so frustrated trying to make anything. Then I discovered SU! sets, and bought some of those too. They were so much easier for me to use that three years ago, I decided to limit myself to just SU! and Hero Arts for stamps. About 6 months ago, I finally felt I had learned enough and developed my creative side enough to branch out again. But I'm very careful what I buy--Autumn Leaves sets are great, and I'm looking hard at PaperTrey, too.
I envy the people who can seemingly randomly choose a few stamps and make a gorgeous card, who see the amazing potential in an image. I'm getting there, but guess I'm a really, really slow learner!
This is so me! I started out randomly and all over the place so I decided to become a demo and only buy SU stuff because it all coordinated. As I've grown and developed as a stamper, I have definitely branched out a lot more. Now, I've joined the ranks of the equal opportunity rubber hounds and I buy what I like when I like--unmounted, mounted, acrylic, etc :-) I'm still growing and developing and new toys are always fun to play with.

oh, i have
and
i can tell!!!
i love, love, love your stuff!
thank you so much for sharing your creations and talent
Thanks for all the enabling girls :twisted: The new TAC catty wish list is plenty.....I'm sure there will by some in the new SU catty that I want and all of this too....yikes! I need to get a night job ;)
I own stamps from so many different companies that I couldn't possibly name them all. If I see an image I like, I buy it. Doesn't matter if it is clear, rubber, mounted or not; good images are good images.
No "gasps" from me (and I, also, am a SU demo). I love stamps by Shara Reiner. Partly because I know her personally, but also because I love her "funky" style (both in her stamp style and in her tole painting style)
Starving Artistamps...they carry backgrounds, mounted stamps and unmounted!! Very soon there will be some new additions as well, cute critters, animals, western and masculine sets so check back in a few weeks to see them too! www.starvingartistamps.com
Not sure if this one was mentioned yet, but I just discovered it. OMG, they have clear, unmounted, mounted, mounted on Cling...and some of the designs are too stinkin' cute. Company is "Impression Obsession", see them here:
I can't pick two dozen that I like! One I like and didn't see mentioned is stampo.com Love the humor. Saw Hambo.com mentioned...love their humor too...esp for the slider cards. I make a lot of gift cards w/ the Money Holder and Insert Money and Return.
After over 10 yrs of stamping, I try to steer away from mounted as much as possible...inc SU!. However, there are a few $30 sets I've invested in. SU! does have great quality rubba though.
I love A Muse stamps. They are designed to work as a collection, which makes them easy to use together. They carry wood mounted and clear acrylic sets and alphabets. They also have a yummy line of notecards and coordinating papers.
