Dizzy makes personalised stamps on here. I'm sure he will be checking in shortly and will let you know prices etc. Many people on here, including me, have stamps he has made. Check out the fabby stamp he has made for the Autumn Meet:

Hi Monkey's on th Moor. Ok, firstly it sounds like you want to make one for yourself by trying your hand at hand carving, seeing as you are after tracing paper (greaseproof paper works well). If you need any help with this let me know.



If you want one made, this is how it works:.............................

Firstly, e-mail me your designs so I can let you know if it's possible to make them for you.



Perspex is the only backing material I use, this is strong thick perspex of a 9mm thickness. You can mount the stamps on wood if you wish to do this yourself but they would have to be glued on which could perish the rubber over time.



Depending on the size (max 90mm x 60mm) will determine the price. For example I use liquid polymer sachets of this max size, so if you want say two stamps out of one sachet this would be £6 for the two, otherwise it would be £6 for one large stamp. If two stamps are made out of one sachet the size of each one would roughly be 40mm across depending on the depth of your design allowing for a cutting gap between, so designing some squarish stamps would produce them a little bigger, remember the hight can only be 60mm max.



Here are my prices for you:



1 polymer sachet: £6.00

1 perspex backing (9mm) 1.00

P+P £1.00 (Can vary depending on the stamp sizes and amounts.)




I prefer payment via PayPal but before you pay please email me the designs (line art only, black and white) and I will let you know if I can make them for you.

Hope this all helps.

Saw everyone highly recommends Dizzy's stamps, but on his site I see that it says unable to make any at the present time...so does anyone have any other online companies they recommend?

Hi Smartie, sorry about that, I only make stamps for a selected few at the moment due to time problems, simply not enough of it!

Hello Smartie,

here are a couple of places you can get a stamp made.

Pebbles ( well known letterboxers)web site is

[url=http://loricraftinkpads.com/][url]http://loricraftinkpads.com/

and

Devon friendly stamps at

[url=http://www.stamps.userfriendly-devon.com/][url]http://www.stamps.userfriendly-devon.com/

we have used these and they are a very efficient company and a good product but a little more expensive

Hi,

Try www.tandastamps.co.uk an A4 sheet £23.90 + £1.50 p&p.

I was waiting on another letterboxer making me an A4 sheet when I was informed they have stopped making them for a while. So I found Tanda Stamps on the internet last Thursday, sent my designs via email, the stamps were made and in the post in about 6 hours. The Allderidge Farmers use this firm as well.

Hope this is of help to you.

Cheers,

Noddy

I have had a stamp made by this company: [url=http://www.bladerubberstamps.co.uk/][url]http://www.bladerubberstamps.co.uk/

They have an on-line designing tool, which for simple stamps (like mine) is quite good. No problems with ordering or delivery (arrived within a few days). I wanted a round stamp (not a round design on a square block), and they provided that.
