My New Infatuation with Coffee Stamps

It all began a few days ago when I spied this card: http://http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/1242886.
This was a sneak peek of the new release from Elzybells, which debuted on Monday. The stamp on the above card is from the set 'Tea for Two.'
After emailing the creator, I began the quest to find these Elzybells stamps. After much searching, I discovered the ONLY place to purchase them was from the creator, in the UK. Their blog is here: http://elzybells.typepad.com/my_weblog/.
I figured I'd be able to find something similar in the US, either online or at a craft store, but no luck. The new JoAnns Super store had ZERO coffee themed stamps, and AC Moore had only 2 small wood mounted ones.
One unique feature of this set is the ability to 'build' an image, cups, handles, etc.
I'm in love. Perhaps you, too?

Amy, I hope they can find some relief for you. I am sure my pain is not near wht yours is but I too live with pain and it can be such a drag on your life. I know it helps to have someone acknowledge that it is real.

What part of VA are you in?? I live just outside of Wayensboro, VA--right off the Blue Ridge Parkway. My husband and I own and operate Cabin Creekwood, which is a vaction get-away. We have cabins that we rent out nightly and weekly.

The main reason I hopped over to your blog was to welcome you to my stampin family--I saw that you just became one of my followers and I wanted to say welcome. All the above chit chat came from reading you blog entries. Anyway welcome, happy stamping, and have a great week!!
