...you're describing the baby shower gift you just bought, and you tell your friend, "It's mostly Certainly Celery with Close to Cocoa trim and just a bit of Barely Banana!"
What a cool color combo; I think I'll use it!!! LOL!

You know you are addicted to stamping when..............
it's a beautiful sunny hot day - and instead of going outside and enjoying the weather - you check out the daily challenge and run up to your stamping room to make a card!

When you're driving down the highway on a beautiful summer day (yesterday ;) ) and imagine ~ across the sky, a bit of a white cloud, and a little into the trees ~ a lovely font that reads "A Perfect Summer Day."
your 'manicure' consists of black ink, FabriTac and glitter.
you scour the $1 rack at every craft store and EVEN IF you don't like the stamps, you buy a few because 1) they are only $1 and 2) you never know when that sheet of ugly stamps will come in handy (for something)
you stalk the employees as they restock the stamping aisle
you are happier with your stamps than you are with all the money you spend on said stamps
you would rather give up Chocolate for Lent, than give up stamping
you go to help your ailing yet spunky Mom for a few days and bring limited supplies (one small grocery bag full) and though she does not *get* this hobby when I bring her her juice in the a.m. she sweetly asks, *Did you make your card this morning?*!!!
Oh my gosh...my addiction is so bad that when we leave the house if it is for more than a few hours I MUST have something of stamping with me or I get very irritable. A magazine..some cardstock, something to color..it just has to be with me. My hubby laughs at me but always asks me if I have something from my "room" with me....He is such a sweet soul...blessings.
Yes to all the above and all the rooms in your house are SU colors
I had a workshop in my home because the hostess was remodeling hers. One of the ladies said to me, "I see your bathroom is Groovy Guava. Is that stenciled design Kiwi Kiss or Old Olive?" LOL!!

You know you are addicted to stamping when...
You are in a moving vehicle for more than 30 minutes and you take something with you to be productive, like images to color, punches to punch out stuff, new catalogs to read and yes I actually stamp going down the road.
Also I look at toilet paper as an avenue to implement "texture" on my next card. You can thank Gina K for this one, LOL
...you'd really, really like a garage... not because you own a car (or even a driver's liscence LOL) but 'cause you could FINALLY fit all the stamping crap you had to have LOL

keep an envelope in your purse with cardstock color chips just in case you see a SS when you are traveling, or just going to Wal-Mart for groceries.
you always have this envelope. you usually forget the grocery coupon envie.
you picked all the paint colors for each room according to SU colors. and the new comforter/curtains in the master BR. seriously, I did.
you are obsessed over the new SU! caty and bug your demo to death until she finally overnights her only copy to you.
you run out of post-its cause they are all in the new caty.
you can't imagine life without ink and rubber.

... you realize you have many, many stamps that you STILL haven't used (EVER. Even though they are a decade old LOL). You will probably NEVER USE them.... but they're stamps, so you will hold onto them anyway...
... you get nostalgic about your first stamp... and first clear stamp... and first House Mouse stamp... LOL
to all the ladies who decorated their houses in SU colors.... did you get the paint personally matched from a piece of paper (like in the store where they'll match anything to a paint color) or did you look at paint samples and go from there? just curious.

... if you hit the Lottery, you'd buy a house, of course, and then you'd finally order an ENTIRE SU Catalog... make a demo veeeerrry happy!! "I'll take one of each of everything" LOL
.....when the storm sirens sound and there are tornado warnings and you are more worried about your stamp stuff making it through the storm than you are yourself making it through it. Why oh WHY did I put my stamp room on the second floor??
You pack up all your stamping stuff when you are going on a fishing trip 1/2 way accross the USA, just in case you have time to stamp/scrap and to make your daughters b-day invites
When going on vacation you scope out where all the local Scrap/Stamp store are and make hubby take you to each one.
Your 6 year old daughter knows exactly what you need when you tell her crop a dile, bug, etc. And she knows how to run your cricut.
yep, i was 3000 miles away from home and managed to find the LSS in Eureka Ca, (thanks to someone here at SCS) AND took a class on using the cricut machine!!!
You think you'd better get a separate insurance rider for your stamping supplies because you've got so much money tied up in the stuff.
You look at clothes in the store and remark that the patterns on the clothes are following DP trends.
The ladies at all of the LSS's withing a 25 radius know you and smile when you come in because they know that you are big part of the reason that they are still in business.
You can't invite friends over due to your embarrestment of all of your rubber room stuff overflowing into every room of your house.
Even online Stamping Suppliers know you because you've shopped online so much.............
you KNOW your addicted to stamping when....
