Default Having a picture made into a rubber stamp???

I was in a quaint little church in Virginia last fall that had beautiful stained glass windows. One was a Nativity. I took and number of pictures of it and would like to have it put on a rubber stamp. Where do I go to have this done? Thanks for your help. Sharon

If you google you will find loads places. I've used www.simonstamp.com in the past. Service was good. Their interface to upload the picture was straight forward. You pay by size of the stamp you want made.

So, if you have a good picture of your cat, they will make it into a stamp?

How detailed can this get?..your house? A person's face?

How about a silouette of a person standing, or posing?

They must computer generate the design from the photo? Unbelievable.

I may have the name wrong but Stamped in Ink recently started created stamps for you from photo's. The examples they showed were all photos of kids but they make stamps from other photos as well. If I get a chance, I will double check the company name.

Have you looked into a local company? If you take your own photo and photoshop it into greyscale or the B&W, you could laser print it and use that as your artwork. I remember years ago having a WM stamp made at my local business stamping place. It was maybe 4x5, and they only charged me $7! Check the yellow pages, you might be surprised.

OH I love Stamped In Ink stamps! They Rock!! I can't wait for my photo stamp to come.
You need to check out the Stamped In Ink newsletter, there are great samples of the custom photo stamps.
Donna Downey used one of Stamped in Inks photo stamps.

Oh they are also running a sale I think it ends today

I haven't posted for quite a while but this sure caught my attention. If anybody out there has made cards with their stamps that were made for them personally could you post them or send us a link to view them? This sounds too cool)
