Rubber Stamp Warning!!!!
This "warning" was forwarded to me by a friend.
A recent study indicated that rubber stamps and embossing powders give
off certain pheromones that actually hypnotize women and cause them to
purchase unreasonable amounts.
When stored in large quantities in enclosed paces, the pheromones
(Rubber) cause memory loss and induce the nesting syndrome (similar to the
one squirrels have before the onset of winter i.e. storing food),
therefore perpetuating their species.
Sound tests have also revealed that the rubber emits a very high pitched
sound, heard only by a select few. A breed of women known as "Rubber
Stampers". When played backwards on an LP, the sounds are heard as
chants,"buy me, stamp me, emboss me."
Studies have also indicated that aliens have inhabited the earth,
helping to spread the effects that these Stamps have on the human
population.
It's also been experienced that these same pheromones cause a
pathological need to hide these Stamp purchases when taken home (or at least
blend them into the existing stash), and when asked by a significant other
if the stamp is new , the reply is:

Why did she make things? Well, she enjoyed it, of course; it also somehow helped her remember who she was and where she came from.
Now that explains everything. I have had these symptoms for s very short time and no one has been able to diagnose what the cause was. I have been to several specialists, but no one can diagnose it. This explains everything. Thanks.

It's someone who buys stamps they didn't normally like at first,only to see it in Split Coast Stampers gallery in a different perspective.
It's also been experienced that these same pheromones cause a

"I've had it for a while."
LOL! You must be spying on me because that's exactly what I say!
Perhaps there should be an addition to state that you will fill entire closets with recycled items such as altoid tins and Pringles cans to be used "SOMEDAY" all in the name of stamping. I mean, who wouldn't want to receive a recycled fruit can for their birthday??
LOL.
I am cleaning out closets right now and have been laughing at all the "treasures" I am finding.
Have you heard that the older you get the worse the illness gets proving that there is no cure!! (It's not like infantile asthma that you can grow out of!!)
How funny! This is exactly what I have. I was worried for awhile but now I know it's a disease with no cure so I will just get on with my life while hiding purchases from my DH!
