Map Stamp - any ideas?

[nicecupoftea]

I am looking for a map stamp but so far my search has been unsuccessful. I tried to 'Google' it but just come up with lots of sites of companies that either sell or make rubber stamps and a map of how to get there.:rolleyes: I know EI sell an antique map stamp but I was looking for something more like a road map as I have lots of car decoupage I would like to do some backgrounds for.

Oh ruddy heck - I vaguely remember QVC doing a set of (poss wood backed) stamps which included a costal map...I'm beggered if I can remember the make though...Hmmm...

Other than that, I've seen cards that just use old out of date maps as backing paper - would that work?

[nicecupoftea]

It was a Sarah Lugg stamp which I can't track down anywhere at the moment. I've done the old map look on cards - just looking for a different style and thought a stamp would be nice.

I knew I'd seen a Tim Holtz road map stamp somewhere, just had a search and found it!

Hmm, went back for a closer look and it's of Paris so possibly not very useful to you.
This thread has made me closely examine the stampers anonymous stamps though and they are very tempting!!

Many thanks Diana - it is just the thing I was looking - sadly it could do with being about half the price. No wonder I couldn't find that one when it is called 'Road Trip' :rolleyes: Now do I save up my pennies or just dismiss it as being too expensive? :confused:

Just found this Sarah Lugg one on ebay but it's in the states! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Rubber-Stampede-Old-Sea-Map-Rubber-Stamp-by-Sarah-Lugg_W0QQitemZ130191935752QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_De faultDomain_0?hash=item130191935752&_trksid=p3286.m63.l1177

That was the one on QVC some time back. I've never been sure about ordering from the US and I can't find it in the UK.

[DianaDreads]

She's English but lives in the States so you don't see her stuff here very often - and I also wish I'd got that one when it was on qvc!

[nicecupoftea]

I was thinking exactly the same - it's that stamp that got me thinking.

Oh Phree, what have you done to me?
I NEED atc set 4 and I've barely scratched the surface of their stamps! Hmm, that one's gone straight to favourites just in case anyone gives me money for xmas :rolleyes:
Thanks so much for sharing!!

I have the sarah lugg one, it's nice I used it for a scrap book page once.
Why don't you get a map book and rip the pages out and use them as a background? then put your decoupage on top?

I do like to enable when I can Diana, and well I noticed you are searching for Christmas pressys.... enjoy the site - there's lots to look at :D
