For me it is butterflies..and leaves I think. I do love flowers as well and am on a bicycle kick these days too..I have to say though that over all I am drawn to things I can color..I do love to color LOL
Just wondering if you are like me and have a gazillion of one certain theme..
Cars and the Tilda girls from Magnolia. Cars for my nephews, who both love them, and Tildas because I love them, and can put them on cards for my niece, who I think loves anything that's pink and frilly and pretty - basically, the kind of card I just LOVE to make.
When I'm buying digi's I'll always go to Dustin Pike first. I don't think I've ever found an image of his I don't like. I also love Who's that Girl images for physical stamps.

Totally cannot resist hearts and related motifs, have an extreme fondness for vintage-y flourishes and borders, and a strong affinity for anything Halloween...
For me it's probably background stamps, sentiments and bible verses. After that I'm pretty evenly spread with what I buy-love butterflies but really only have two sets of those. And I love birds!
When it comes to companies I am split between Hero Arts, PTI and Verve (mostly Plain Janes) I have a few SU stamps, a lot of the little Studio G stamps and the rest is just misc.
I have been on a buying kick for a bit after taking a 3 month break but now it's quittin time!
I love nature and birds and like you I love to color, actually, watercolor. I like having a lot of the same theme. It helps create scenes when I can grab from a bunch of different sets.
I love anything vintage too.
I am trying to just buy supplies now because I have more than enough stamps to grab from when I am creating.
I've never met a bicycle stamp that I didn't *have* to have! We're a family of cyclists and I have all sorts of occasions that I can use a bike stamp for. I'm also a sucker for any kind of snowman stamp, too!
I am really drawn to girl or dog stamps. If the stamp has a little girl WITH a dog, it immediately becomes a "must have". ;) I love hearing about the types of images that everyone favors!
When I was only a year or so into this hobby, I was mostly buying from SU and binge-shopping at a couple of local expos. I noticed that I was continually buying butterflies, but was overlooking key sentiments like sympathy and get well.
That's when I started a stamp index, and also put myself on a butterfly moratorium.

Birds!!! And Penny Black cute critters , but usually I get DH to buy me those as gifts, 'cos I can't justify to myself that they'll earn their keep if I buy them myself.
I seem to have a lot of snowmen, too.
And three music backgrounders plus other music stamps too, with a couple more backgrounders on my wishlist.
I have just started in stamping and have bought some sets like SU and like those ok.
But, I just found Queen Kat Designs website with all the fairies and fantasy and such.
I wanted soooooo many of the stamps and bought a nice collection.
I feel so inspired just looking at them and cannot wait to get them.
I love fairies and there was also a set called gothic dollies but can't remember the artist name and bought quite a few of them also.
Christmas and butterfly stamps. I keep telling myself donot buy anymore Christmas or butterfly stamps, but someone always comes up with another pretty stamp!!!
birds in flight, dragonflies, text backgrounds,cute trees of some sort.....oh and things that have to do with books, like a book cover, stamps for book plates, etc

I love images to colour but I've gone digi with those so I can buy what I need when I need it, rather than getting sucked into buying things without a purpose, just because they are there.

Butterflies, birds & flowers! Everytime I think I have enough butterflies or birds I find one that's just so different in style to what I have that I need it. I'm also a sucker for any vintage images and particularly drawn to anything that has script.
