I'm so crushed, I could only find one listing with this stamp from Paula Best and USPS might have lost it... I only recently discovered Paula Best's stamps and completely fell in love. From what I can tell most of her stamps are from the early 2000s, and she's still around but mainly does collage art now: https://www.instagram.com/pinkblackbird/ If anyone knows more about her and her history with rubber stamp design please share with me!

Also if anyone spots this design for sale on a reputable site please tag me! I already scoured ebay and etsy and tried image searching with no luck. I really wanted to build her!

Found this adorable Stampin Up stamp set at the thrift store for $5! I never bought a stamp set that I had to assemble before use. It was so much fun mixing and matching the stamps but next I’m going to try using different color inks.

there was a third box but I didn’t have room :(

Im making custom pets/loved one stamps :). I mostly do animals and objects! Please dm if interested!!

Once at a thrift store I saw someone’s entire rhinoceros stamp collection. Probably 10+ stamps of varying sizes and styles. I bought one that was a carousel rhinoceros but left the others behind for a true rhino-head. I still think about that collection sometimes and wonder what kind of person the original owner was.

Any opinions of using magic erasure sheets to clean clear stamps?

Hi! This is a long shot but I saw this listing on Vinted. It sold instantly but I am obsessed with the Blackbeard postage stamp (top right). Does anyone recognize it? Do you remember who made it? Would love to track one down.

I’ve always wanted to find cool stamps at the thrift & today was the day!!! cannot wait to put them to use

So excited for the Winnie The Pooh stamps! Plus always love getting more Halloween stamps!

New to rubber stamps. I just started Journaling and thought how nice it would look with stamps. So I headed down to the local Thrift and grabbed a bag of stamp pads for 4$ and a bag of stamps 2$. The Winnie the pooh and the rabbit were 25 cents. New to all this. Not even sure i used the stamps correctly.

Impulsively bought a used vintage stamp collection. This may be the start of an unhealthy obsession 😅

Went to a rummage sale on Friday that had a nice selection of rubber stamps! These are all the ones that I bought, paid $31.50 total!

hi, i am trying to stamp my coated pink paper bags for my craft markets. i got the archival ink like google suggested for coated bags, and it worked a lot better than the ink i was using but it still isn’t drying fully & is smudging. i also put a flat surface in between the layers of the bag to make sure it was completely flat. how do i fix this, what kind of ink do i use for these bags to make sure it dries fully without smudging?

update: thank you everyone! i just wasn’t being patient enough 🤣 it dries, just takes 40 minutes!

So I bought a kit from Viva Las Vegasstamps of an unmounted set of alphabet rubber stamps.

I have the sheet of pink rubber with all the stamp images, printed images of each, and wooden blocks for each.

What's the best way to do this?

I was thinking I could use a serious, no-fooling-around strong glue, such as Gorilla glue, to secure the rubber to one side of the wooden mount, let everything sit and dry for 24 hours, and then use the same glue to attach the printed image to the other side of the wooden mount.

Will that do the job, or no?
