I've seen many mentions of the current enthusiasm for adult coloring books and a friend (thank you, Jean) just sent me a link to the reasons why coloring is good for us. I've known that for decades.
The artists at RubberMoon have been, and still are, creating stamps to delight all of us coloring types. I am sharing some of my designs here as illustrations. The RubberMoon roster is filled with colorable (is this a word? it needs to be) images. Best part, RubberMoon is what we call in the stamping business an Angel Company, meaning anything you make using a RubberMoon stamp and not a copy of any sort you may offer for sale with our blessings. Greeting cards, tags, with vibrantly colored-by-you designs. Hmmmm.
At the company website, images are best viewed by clicking on Shop By Artist link, this is mine. Allow yourself time to browse and choose from among hundreds of varied, versatile stamps. Let every thought narrow down to the point of the pen. You get the idea. (Images are greatly enlarged here. The original sizes leave plenty of room to color.)

Marylinn, you gave birth to images ripe for coloring and I agree that Kae Pea and her artists have carried the torch further. Your coloring and Kathy Lewis lessons have inspired me to many penciled images in my works. Thank you.
Janna - Thank you. What delight it gives to know of the pleasure you've found through RubberMoon and our art team. And Kathy Lewis' lessons and samples, there simply are no words. Your sister in color pencil fun. xo
Lovely designs!
I always colored along with my children when we sat down with coloring books and I enjoyed it immensely.
My sister and I filled so many coloring books when we were kids. I love these stamps and am going to get some now.
Kass - Thank you. I ask, rhetorically, what's not to enjoy about coloring? xo
Catherine - Hello, nice to see you here. Do please look through all the RubberMoon images if you shop there, such varied, creative designs. And thank you. Enjoy, enjoy. xo
I used to collect those big gorgeous Rubber Moon catalogs but eventually had to purge them due to lack of room. I miss them!
Rebecca - I had no idea! They did a fine, big job with them. Of course I still have the last one, and maybe a few before, and one or two from other companies. In the 80s and 90s one of my great pleasures was sending away for stamp catalogs. It is how RubberMoon and I became acquainted. I was just musing upon things I should never have let go. It is a punishing and poor use of time and energy, a ledge from which I need to talk myself down. Had I managed to keep them all - typewriters, magazines, china, books, linens, clothes, etc. - we would be mistaken for the Collyer brothers. Still, I miss them and wish there had been a way to do it differently. xo
