Looking for a good blog...

As I've mentioned, I follow a bunch of blogs these days - household ones mostly: design blogs, entertaining blogs, stationary blogs. I'm on the lookout for a rubber stamping blog or two to add to the list.

I want something visual to help keep me inspired in the craft room. I want a blog whose writer is a stamper, not a scrapbooker, not a mixed media artist into art dolls and ephemera, and not someone who only uses collage and paper punches to create cards.

I want card ideas and reviews of new stamp lines and stamp companies. I want to hear about conventions and new techniqes that don't stray too far from ink and rubber.

Not that I've looked at much, but the right blog hasn't made itself known.

Any ideas from out there in the ether?

Thanks for the suggestions! I knew someone out there would have more ideas!

I don't do cute, but I do like simple designs using art stamps and often have a text background in there somewhere. Here's an earlier post with some samples: http://festiveyettasteful.blogspot.com/2008/01/petite-showcase.html

Hmm, well at least one more thing. :)
A new e-magazine just started up, and I mean 'just'. I don't really know what it will be like, but here's the link:
