Yes, it is well worth the trip. They have a very large selection of stamps, paper and lots of accessories. Their ribbon is wonderful. The staff is very helpful. It is a favorite stop of mine when I need a break from the business of life.

Yes, it is definitely worth it. They have an amazing selection of stamps and they are all categorized. Of course, they have all the other stuff too. In the new location they have a small coffee shop. The staff are friendly and helpful.
I go there about once a month. They usually have a decent selection of Nesties, Cuttlebug folders and punches as well. I like their paper selection especially. It's a great store. I haven't been to any of their classes yet, but I've heard nothing but good about them. Definitely worth the time to come. And their stamp selection has something for everyone, lots of variety.

We went to Bellingham this past Monday.
Stopped in at Stampadoodle.
I was disappointed at their selection of stamps.
I was looking for tropical beach vacation theme & nothing...very minimal.
I was interested in the Snoopy/Peanuts line from Stampabilities - again, nothing.
Big store, tho, nicely laid out.
Staff was very helpful, too.

their stamps are a little "old school" for my tastes.. lots of those make-your-own-scene type, OLD vintage (not on purpose vintage, but actual vintage) but maybe i'm just a little too trendy for my own good.. BWAHAHA.. seriously though, they are against clear stamps (they only have a few) and have more traditional tastes.. when i go in there, i look around, maybe buy some Neenah cardstock, and leave empty handed.. and i normally buy lots of stamps!!!

SRM Stickers and Deconstructed Sketches.
4Laura, if you happen to have Wed's off, they have a free 12-1 session where various techniques are shown. If you go, bring a card you have made, it will get passed around, and then entered for a draw at the end of the session. (you could win!) The cards are then on display for anyone to purchase, the proceeds going toward a community group who use it to buy supplies for their projects. I think its a great idea, and helps out a charity at the same time!
Their website lists the subjects for each Wed session that will be demo'd. One word of caution; either go with a friend, alone or ? but not with a husband that waits for you in the car!!!!
ok, what is neenah paper? Similiar to bazzill?? I love bazzill paper; as to hubby waiting, yeah, the first time maybe he would come into the store, after that I need to time it over 'nap' time, or make sure there is a puzzle book in the car!!!
Actually he is good about it, since there are times I need to wait for him lots!
I am almost done the prep for the "swap" and he did much of the cutting, etc. A keeper, for sure! A retired printer, so measurements are PRECISE!

They also have card classes on some Tuesdays which can be fun, plus I think you get 10% off your purchase that day if you attend a class or attend a demo. Oh, and an insider tip, Wendy usually sells the stamps used in class for an even bigger discount to the first person who calls dibs!
Wendy, the owner, is super nice and I know they have books of stamps so if you are looking for a specific type of stamp I bet they can help you find the perfect one and order it for you. Anyway, I don't live in Bellingham anymore, but my parents do and so I usually stop by with my mom when I'm in town. I would say they don't have a ton of any one type of thing (aside from fancy papers) but they have some of just about everything it seems.
