Looking for a rubber stamp source

15 years ago

I need some rubber stamps for use in the elementary classroom. I'm looking for animal stamps, about 1-1/2" across. We're learning about carnivores and herbivores, so maybe I'm looking for something like lions, tigers and cows and deer, etc.

I have not found a local store (except Michaels which looks somewhat picked over) so I was wondering if anyone here could direct me to a dependable online source.

Many thanks.

One thing, there is a company called Stamp' UP similar to scrapbook parties. Go on line if you do not have a consultant in your area. They have a large variety of stamps and they are not cheap, but good quality. Also Close to My Heart which is scrap booking but has an excellent selection of clear plastic stamps. Both can be bought on line. Do you have a large Walmart or Hobby Lobby?

If you could find a shop with cnc milling the can do what you want. Just remember that this is a stamp for steel and requires a reverse image and must also be hardened and tempered. Saying that when done it should last a lifetime but the cost will reflect the complexity of the design a small shop with a like minded owner would be the answer as all the design is computer generated and once that is done programming is a cinch lots luck but just keep trying

Susan, what animals are you looking for? I bought a boxful of stamps through Craig's List recently and there's a Stampin' Up set, don't know if it's supposed to be an Africa set or a Zoo set. I have a zebra, lion (female, not with the big mane), giraffe and elephant. I can't see me ever using these, so if you're interested, let me know. Patty

You may find some at the dollar stores. I have found various stamps at Dollar Tree. Look in the area that has stickers, marking pens, etc. Jo-Ann Fabric store usually has some animal stamps also.

Also check Office Max, Walmart, and even places like Ace Hardware in the craft selection. Current magazine, Craft and Things etc --check the craft magazines in the store.
QVC has some good deals too.
