Default Help! I need an "old man" stamp

Anyone know where I can get a stamp of an "Old Man". I have seen lots of old lady stamps, but I would like to do a card for a friend who is turning 70 this month. Thanks!!

Just be careful, they suck you in and before you know it you have a $100 order

I used this one for my dad and they have a stamp that says something like: It's like looking in a mirror, isn't it? LOL My dad could not stop laughing. I used Crystal Effects on the party hat to really make it pop.

Thanks for the info everyone!! Great stamps. I really like the humorous stamps at Ibrakeforstamps. Jukie- have you ever ordered from them?? The prices seem so cheap. I am wondering if they come "unmounted". I will maybe email them-I didn't see anywhere on their site what kind of stamps they are.

Hi Loraly - the stamps from I Brake for Stamps do come unmounted. But the images are so great that just using some double stick tape or rubber cement on an acrylic block works great! She also has the mounting foam as well if you prefer to mount the stamp on foam and then use the acrylic blocks.

I can tell ya - I have MANY stamps from IBFS and I LOVE THEM! Della is amazing and you won't be disappointed in the stamps or the service! Luv ya Della!

You know - I was just checking out all of the stamps on her site. These are awesome. They were crackin' me up. Each stamp I looked at better than the last. I know I what I will be doing today- placing an order. And not just for the "old man" stamp" either. I just have to figure out how to mount these stamps, I am kind of new to the stamping world and I only have acrylic and mounted rubber stamps. Lots to learn

Rubbernecker Stamp Company has some good ones, too. They also have some very funny sentiments related to old age. Their stamps are really good quality, and come unmounted on cling foam--ready to stick onto an acrylic block. So no mounting involved.

You should check them out. They are having a sale right now.

I have a set from Gina K. It has a funny old man and some great sentiments about being old. I used it to make a card for a 70-something man a year ago and he liked it. Here is the link

Thanks for the link. They have some great stamps. Shipping is a flat $4.85 for as many as you want, provided that you live in the US.
I hope I am enabling someone else, cuz I don't want to be alone
