Custom stamps are a great gift, because you can put whatever you want on them. I got my sister some comically large ones that say REJECTED and HELL NO several years ago, which she loved. And my co-worker whose last name is Stamper always joked about giving a "Stamper stamp of approval," so I got him one.

I feel like I should get a HELL NO stamp!!! What a great idea- would be fun for a white elephant

I once heard of an architect who would stamp requests for information with "RTFD"....until someone upstairs realized it meant "Read The F'in Drawings."

Soooo good for packaging! Discountrubberstamps doesn't have too many sales, but my friend recommended signing up for their email list, sometimes they do 30% off.

Oh I'm so glad! I've been loving playing with it- I hope someday to have cute stockers or freebies like that.

Awesome packaging! Love this series! As an architect, I'm a big fan of stamps...though the kids have used my professional stamps more than I ever have!

Hah!!! I definitely stamped a fair share of my drawings with my mom's library date stamps.

Hey, I've been using Clearbags for years now, too!

Love your branding/packaging, thank you for sharing your process and tips. I never thought of cutting a big round sticker into half and using that - great idea!

I'm glad it was helpful- it really looks neat on the back of a card and gives another use for them. Trying to find multi-use products to try to cut down on waste!
