These are the ones I selected:

Whimsy Tree
Flowers of Tomorrow
Father's Day
Anniversary Birds
Flirty Phrases
Snowflake Splendor
Happy Thoughts

I am looking forward to getting them I don't find them expesive at all! Quite the opposite, actually! $3.00 for their singles, and $9.00 - about $18.00 for their sheet sets.

Not bad at all, IMO!

Although expensive is very much subjective from person to person. When comparing to other stamping companies, I find Verve very much in line if not lower priced. I love that there is a great selection of stamps and sets priced under $10. That is hard to find for this quality of stamps!

I am just about to place my first order as well. How do you pick which ones to get without going overboard. I promised myself I have to cut down on my spending so I will have to try to spread it out.

Tess, that's totally not normal...usually it takes about a week for stamps to arrive in Canada from Verve (based on what my Canadian sisters have reported). I'd suggest emailing info@vervestamps.com ASAP to check on your order.

I would send an e-mail. I placed my order on Aug. 27, it was shipped on the 28th and I received it on Sept. 8th. From placing my order to receiving it was only 6 working days.
