The summer of too many stamps
Well, really, one can never have too many stamps. It cracked me up to take this picture. As I unpacked, a little voice went through my head, "Rubber stamps are dead. No one buys them anymore." Uh huh. Would you believe that I was told that once by a store owner? They are not dead. Buy them, but don't reorder the same stamps from the same company every time. Order new stamps from new companies, and someone will scoop them up.The only thing I'm left to ponder is to where to find the space for them. Yes, some of them will be trekking with me to classes!
I prefer to buy wood mounted stamps. It's just me. That being said, if the only way I can buy a stamp is for it to be unmounted or polymer only, then I'll buy it.

I love the stamp you just bought of the lotus. It's on the left between a tulip and a large stamp with numbers in your photo. The lotus is similar to one on a paper you always seem to have. (Of course, I want the paper, too!) I'd love the name of the stamp's manufacturer...and the paper, as well. I'm hopeless!!!
So...on to the F*CK IT list...
I will NEVER:
1. stop buying stamps and paper!
2. compare my work to another's (I'm still working on this one...)
3. apologize for my size
4. shop for clothes when I don't want to
5. be a vegatarian (I LOVE red meat)
One person told me rubber stamps are for old and fat people. Nice, huh? (I spent no money on their store after they said that)
