ok, here's my contribution:

* If you find yourself looking at common household objects and think "Hmmm, what new technique could I invent with that?"...you might be a stamper.

*If you have to specify to DH that you are going out to buy postage stamps...you might be a stamper.

*Before DH even finishes this sentence: "Can I throw this away?", You respond "NO!!"...you might be a stamper.

*If you find yourself thinking in acronyms (OMG,! TFS, IMO, etc.), you might be a stamper on SCS.

*If your 4 year old knows how to use a Stampin' Scrub, and remembers which side is wet and which is dry...you might be a stamper.

That's all I can think of now

Your 2 1/2 year old daughter can say her name when asked, her daddy's name when asked, but when asked what mommy's name is she replies... STAMP!

OK, I've got a few:

-you look forward to football season and all the hours DH puts in for coaching, just for some free time to stamp without guilt until midnight

-you have 4+ windows open in Explorer, so you can read posts while searching the gallery and while uploading pictures and while checking your gallery to see if you get any new compliments!

-you make a pact with the kids at bedtime "Ok, tomorrow you guys are not watching so much TV" and their response it "and you are leaving the computer off!"

You guys are hilarious!!

You know you're addicted when

--you dream in 48 colors

--you paint your bedroom ruby red because to match your eggplant envy sheets and barely banana duvet cover.

--your UPS guy knows your car and delivers your packages when he sees you around town.

...you walk into your hotel and can't help but notice the wallpaper - it's wide stripes made by alternating "canvas background" and mulberry paper. Can't wait to get home so I can try that combo myself!!

My husband was cooking dinner the other night and wanted a roll of papertowels. As I was handing it to him I suddenly snatched it back and said "those are great colors for a card, can't you see it?" I then grabbed a sample of gable green andalmost amethyst and said "don't you agree?" He just rolled his eyes and kept on cooking...You have to be addicted when the colors in a papertowel "inspire" your CS selection!

Default You Know Yor Addicted When......

You go to Loews for materials and you are not currently doing any home remodeling. Even sadder when you go to Lowes with a shopping list.

I am going there today for washers and screen to make a scrapbook page that I saw on DIY.

during an SU! party, when someone spills their punch you scoop the cup, ice and all the punch off the table and onto your new carpet! Then your demo says, "What are you doing???" and you reply, "Saving the project!" That was four or five years ago, and my demo has never forgotten!

Yes, yes ... I have another one. You find the house of your dreams, and your son's girlfriend insists that you come look in the master bedroom, where there is an unbelievable walk-in closet with an island in the middle. You say, "Oh, no, I would never need a closet THIS big," and the girlfriend says, "You just don't get it, do you? Look at all the room for your stamps!"

OMG! I've laughed so hard I almost peed my pants! What a great thread.

You know you're addicted when the first thing you do when you get home from work is go to SCS to see what's new. Dinner can wait.

...you don't know what programs are on TV anymore.

...you make a beeline to M or J with the coupons (I had a 50% coupon for Michael's not too long ago - bought a paper cutter).

...everything is related to old olive, ruby red, etc. - you get the picture.

When the last thing you do before shutting off the light at night is a quick flip though your NEW SU catalog updating your wishlist and searching for new card ideas!!

... when you take a week of vacation in the middle of the summer off (w/out DH) and you don't care that the car is in the shop for half of the week because you can get more stamping time in and add to your gallery!

... when your pastor asks if there is a twelve step program for stampers.

... when you look up verses in the Bible to justify stamping.

.. when you snatch bits of hymns to justify same... "stamp thine own image deep on my heart."

All you can talk about (to anyone who will listen) is how much longer before the new catalog arrives and look at every new catty thread just wondering what you are missing while it is in transit.

When you shop for your stamp habit every place you go to....and trying to find creative ways to fit MORE in the stamp room! :razz:

here is my contribution..... all true for me. :rolleyes: (these are my own experiences)

you carry scissors and mono in your purse.

when you run out of tape to wrap gifts you use mono, because you have 18 refils left, one roll wont kill you.

you shave your legs with soap cause you used your shavng cream for a technique.

you are happy your kids use the *right kind* of baby wipes for a project you want to try.

you see the world in SU! colors.

whenever you see someone who needs cheering up you think of sending them a RAK

you go out and buy seran wrap, which you hate to use, just so you can try crinkled chalk.

Wink With you on that one....

"you know you are addicted when you start using SU color names instead of real color names to describe things...."

My family just rolls their eyes when I do that.

How about when your kids see the lovely brown truck and say, "Mom, they're trying to find you to deliver more stampin' stuff".....

That happened when we were CAMPING in a campground and the brown truck came in (hey I was hoping they were coming to find me!). LOL

You know you are addicted when you read a thread on SCS about addiction and you can relate to every one of the posts at some level...and your DH giggles and laughs when you act shocked about it.

And I just wanted to share my new byline(once I figure out how to add it

"Never ask a woman her age, weight, or how many stamp sets she has. She will lie about all of them."
