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?
