Sunday is the only day of the week that I can do any stamping. I'm just too busy the rest of the week, and Saturday is generally a wind down day. I can't stamp while I am still wound up. No upload Sunday's kill me because I am so excited to share my creations. (But I'm so glad the mods get a break...)
So since I can't upload my cards, it got me to thinking- when do you all stamp?
BTW- Reason number 2 Sunday isn't a good stamping day. I made a card that I needed a Congratulations for. Would you believe I didn't have a single one. So I went to Joanns to find one- or I was going to get an acrylic stamp alphabet set. Joanns only Congrats was way expensive and they don't have any acrylic stamps. But Hobby Lobby is closed on Sundays. (I did end up with an alphabet set- and hopefully a cool looking card- you'll see it later this week when I remember to upload)
I try to stamp as often as possible...I understand the uploading...while we want to honor our mods and give them a day off...I often find that Sunday is the only day I "actually" have time to upload. But still I honor No Upload Sunday's!
I always forget that HL is closed on Sunday...I appreciate why they close but still I drive there and forget all about it. :rolleyes: I always stamp and/or crop on Friday Nights unless something comes up that prevents me from doing so...
I also do most of my stamping on Sunday because it's the only day of the week my husband has off so he spends time with the kids while I spend time with my stamps!
I have a stamping corner in my living room. It's pretty packed, but its nice because I can sit down for a few minutes here and there without having to set up and clean up contstantly. Mostly I stamp in the evenings, after dinner, while the kids are doing their homework, etc. Saturdays are usually too busy, but Sundays I usually can stamp for a few hours.
I don't have a special stamping "day" but probably do more during the week since it seems like there's always something happening with family on the weekends. Also, I tend to go in spurts. I don't have my own stamping room or "space," so when I do haul everything out to stamp (in my dining room) I tend to leave it out for a few days and get a few cards done. Then it starts driving me nuts looking at the MESS in the dining room (or I need the table for company) so I put it all away till the next opportunity presents itself. This is a real bummer for me since I'd LOVE to participate in the weekly challenges but it doesn't seem to work for me. sigh.

I had a craft room upstairs and found I never went up there... So I bought two nice bookshelves and put them in my dining room, moved all my stampin -scrappin stuff down... now I play weekly... and have gotten so much done.. I usually end up doing friday night & Saturdays with my girlfriends... I started a new job 8 months ago and have 3 co-workers hooked already! They go to a monthly Stamp Club with me even! I love it!
What day do you do most of your stamping?
