If my DH ever so much as remarks about my stamps, I'm going to print this entire thread and make him read it :!:
I'm not a demo. I have been an SU! customer for a year and a half and I have 44 SU sets. I noticed as I counted that 9 of them were hostess rewards or SAB sets! I think that's pretty cool.

Hi I have a spread sheet of all my stamp sets-(Stampin-up) I have over 225 logged and about 15 I need to add to the spread sheet- I have them all stored on cd holders and a swivel one. I need to catalog them by shelf so I know where to look for them. Sometimes I feel overwelmed with how many I have, but I can't seem to stop buying them. I also have tons of stamps not Stamin up. I have a weekness for vases, urns, baskets- anything I can put flowers in. Then there is the animals. I love big stamps so I can shrink them and add dimension to the cards I make.
I just made over 160 Christmas cards- about 7 different styles as i get bored with all the same design.
I just love Stampin up. d

Gee I have approx 95 - 100 sets. Got all the Classic Ink pads and the complete set of Markers. I have a wish list with at least 25 sets on it. You can never have too many Stamp sets. I better get busy shopping gotta catch up with all you who are in the 200+ stamp sets range. LOL
I have nearly 300 sets. My husband has NO idea or he would wonder why I'm not sending cards out everyday!
With so many sets I sometimes feel more like a "collector" than a "stamper". Oh well, I can hardly wait for the Sell-a-brations stamps to get here. I LOVE buying stamps!!?!
Just curious...Is there a time when you can part with retired stamp sets? Or do you just keep storing them in hopes of using them again. Or actually, still keep using them? I can see myself always going back to use retired sets. Oh this is way too addicting.
I have parted with my retired ones. How I do it is if I DON'T use them within a year I sell or trade them. I did trade A LOT of my retired ones for some current ones though, or else sell them so that I can buy some current sets!! I figured if I can't demo them, and not using them I will just part with them!
I have been in for 13 months now and I have 74 sets! With SAB approaching, this number will grow. That's just counting the stamps! I have just about every accessory they offer.
The best thing about it is that I spent none of my money on these. Every workshop I do, I basically buy more stamps & accessories with the profits!
I am too afraid to count because I may discard the ever changing, ever growing list that I have ready for SAB. I have 63 (at least that is all that I can find in my mess of a work area) to date. All of the paper, all of the classics, all of the markers, and it goes on and on. I probably would not have so many if I did not have such a great SU demo (you know who you are). As far as my DH, as long as I add just one or two sets to my bookshelf (instead of all that I really ordered), he never notices the difference and I'd like to keep it that way.
I currently have 149 sets including the few non Stampin' Up! sets that I've also aquired. but I'm ordering with my club orders this wednesday, and I also plan to place another hopefully good size order durring SAB so this # is constantly changing. and apparently I'll be getting a new free set from SU! soon, so this # could actually change tomorrow, and it'll definatley change by the end of next week. it was fun counting thoug! thanks

Last count was 320+, I check them off in the catty and I know that I am not current...... :shock: .....hey at least I'm honest. I KNOW I have a problem..................I just happen to LOVE my problem and don't want it to go away!
To soften it, I suppose I could say that that count includes wheels......
however it doesn't include all the accessories, embellishments, tools etc...that are all sooooo cool with SU!

Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.
I am going to sign up as a demo in Jan. and I suspect my collection will grow dramatically. This seemed so innocent in the beginning,lol. Love this site
