I'm a late nighter. I used to work 12:30 - 9:00pm but now work 9 - 5:30. Unfortunately, I still go to bed around 1am even though I have to get up at
6:00a.m. now. So that's when my stamping is done.
I actually stamp just about any time of the day.... when the creativity hits. :rolleyes: I voted "Morning" because I find that's the time of day I can be 'quicker' at 'creating', with better ideas.
Although, for some strange reason, VSN gets me pretty pumped for some LATE night creating!! ;)
I find that I do most of my stamping in the afternoon/early evening...once it hits 7pm, it's too late for me...BUT, my stamping space is in the basement, and who wants to be down there alone after dark??
I get up every morning, including Saturdays and Sundays, at 3:30 am. I am a total morning person. On the days I work, I stamp until about 5:30 and then start getting ready for work at 7:30. At night I am totally trashed.... asleep on the couch by about 8:30-9:00. I love my mornings!!!!
I voted for afternoons, but I'm very lucky that I can stamp whenever I want. No kids, and a very understanding DH. He's even come home after work and found me still in my jammies stampin' my little heart out. When I get in the creative mood, nothing stands in the way, like getting dressed in the morning. LOL

Live in the moment and make it so beautiful it's worth remembering.
I chose the last option but it is usually from about 9:30 or 10 pm - midnight. The exceptions are VSBN and the occasional VSN that I ship DD to MIL's so I can stamp. If I could choose it would be during the afternoon. After I do the cleaning and before I get tired. Only 2 more years to go 'til DD's in school. LOL.

I would love to do that. The house is very quiet in the morning. There are no morning people in the house - me ESPECIALLY. Maybe I just have to change my ways.

I voted whenever kids etc let me, but I can stamp any time of day, I usually find that evenings into late nights are my most productive time. I also stamp more on the weekend than I do in the week, and that is weird because I am a SAHM whose son is at school during the week, whereas he is home on weekends. Weird, huh!

I prefer to stamp when everyone is in bed, so I voted night owl. I also stamp occasionally during the day, but mostly at night. LOL Of course, that makes NO sense since all 3 of my kids are at school during the day. LOL Old habits die hard!
I mostly stamp in the summer when I have more time. We school at home so I am very busy with that from Sept thru May. Unfortunately, our school area is also my craft area so when school is going, all my supplies are put away in a large closet. This summer I made hundreds of cards so I'd have a stash. We will make our holiday cards as a family in the next month or so. So, sadly all I do during this time of year is buy and go to workshops....poor me:-)
I used to stamp during Sunday afternoons. Now I'm a "you mean you're supposed to actually use them" stamper- I've just been TOO busy to get out a stamp.

When ever I get the chance...
It used to be late at night when everybody went to bed, but lately I've noticed *my* best time is when my "wee-one" goes down for his nap. Of course, I'm always praying, "please be a long one, please be a long one..."

4 kids, DH and 3 different schools kinda bites into my stamping time, KWIM???? :rolleyes:
Wow, I had to look and see if *I* wrote this! This is me to a T! I have 4 kids (17,14,9,7), a DH, a dog, 3 different schools, along with scouts, violin lessons, soccer, chorus activities and the normal teen activities too! Thankfully I am a work at home mom, so I stamp whenever I can during the day between cleaning and doing stuff for/with the kids. :-)

You could do it!!! You just have get your body trained! Sometimes that is easier said than done, though.
I wish I could stay up at night, that is when I am most creatively minded, but I get too sleepy! Basically, I try to make myself clean in the morning so I can play the rest of the day when I get a free minute or two.
My best answer was when the kids... But, my favorite time to stamp is in the morning. After that second cup of Joe kicks in and the kids have left for school, that's my favorite time. At my house, that's when the light is best too.
