Default Poll: How many stamps sets do you have?

As my collection builds, I was just wondering how many sets YOU all have...if you can count that high!! I now have about 45 sets, and I do want to keep that number low so I get good use out of all my sets, so I'm going to sell the ones I don't use as I get more (so I tell myself!)

I have just a little under 200 sets. 85% off those sets are current ones.

You didn't have a 200+ choice in your poll, so I marked the last. But just so you know, I've counted to much more than 200 before!

I have managed to keep under 30, mostly because I am waiting to have another workshop so I can get more I have sold a few sets that I no longer used, and have room for more now. Justification, hey??

....... and I live in the UK and can't buy all your gorgeous SU sets or TAC sets :(

Most of mine are individual stamps rather than sets.

I wish I could afford more stamps. there is the stark reality though, that i probably have 2000 + pieces of designer paper in my closet, and if i didn't pick up paper everytime i went to the LSS i could buy more stamps sets... i have about 10 sets.

I have about 120 sets. I discovered stamping about 2 1/2 years ago, and I feel like I've reached "equilibrium" with the number of sets I have. For now. Until the new SU catalog comes out. :-)

I have just over 100 sets ... and now I'm pretty much waiting until the new catty arrives in July to add to my collection (yeah sure, that's what I'm telling myself anyway).

Boy, am I jealous! I have no more than 15 sets. I use them all a lot. I am not sure I could handle 200. How do you decide which one to use? I am going to show this poll to DH, so he understands that I really do NEED more sets!

Last time I counted I had over 100. I would think I have 120-150. But many of those are are SAB sets & hostess sets. Some are duplicates of SAB sets so they don't really count.

As of last year, I know I had about 250+ and that was before the new catty came out, along with the winter mini, holiday mini, spring mini, or sell-a-bration. That's not counting the wheels that coordinate, right? I seriously need to weed out a few dozen or more.:(

Red face 22 Sets

I have 22 sets and oh wait I forgot to count the ones in my room so 30 is and the one on the kitchen table. I only have 35 but I want more. It's not enough. I am bored with the ones in the current catty and hope the ones I do have are not retired. I have been stamping for a year and just became a demo last month. I have lots of projects, paper, assor, and other things. All the cards or stuff I make I put on display in and around my house and it drives my husband to fustration. LOL

I am waiting on the new catty bc I need more stamps. I can't get enough of all the pretty things I want. :p

I am looking for a baby card made with wild about you and riveting. I didn't mark it as a favorite and now I can't find. It used blue & yellow cs also there was a tab stamped with adorable. On the top of the card there were 2 tabs made with the window slot punch. It is not under wild about you or riveting in the gallery. Heeeelp it was a real cute card. Thanks

I am closing in on 200 sets of SU stamps, but I have unreal amounts from other companies too. I'm big into stamping unusual images and am gung ho on UM stamps. I'm certain that I have more than 300 sets of stamps, and I have numerous "singles."

I have close to 100 SU sets, I have about 30 other stamp sets by companies like Stampendous, A Muse and Autumn Leaves and I probably have about 200 single stamps.

Default You gals made me count

I saw this post and I wondered how many stamps do I have. So this post made me stop and count. You gals are BAD!!!! I have 126 stamps which most are current as I have been a demo since June 2006 and in less than a year I have amassed that much.

I have somewhere around 135 or so. I actually get use out of the majority of them. I decided to make a book with all my sets. I stamped them each onto a page and gave each set a number. Then I put a sticker with that number onto the set itself. So when I want to stamp I just pull the book with these pages out and it helps me not only use more of sets but it also cuts down on the whole decision time on which set to use.

I have about 100 SU sets. I did purge a few a while back. I gave some to my nieces and my daughters. I am amazed at some of the numbers. Do you really use them all?

That's what we all said at one time or another....but the reality is different :shock: . Oh well, my last count was around 150, have to add 15-20 and subtract about 8...so about 165?
