Developing your own design is best, but I am one of those
who carve my fingers more than the eraser. A good source for a custom made
stamp is your local engraving store or trophy store. EskieLover and I had
one for a while, and had a stamp press. You make your custom
artwork. This is scanned into the computer, digitized for the engraving
machine, a mold is engraved, and the mold pressed into the heated rubber to make
the stamp. If you work with the engraver, the scanned artwork can be
edited before engraving the mold. If you go to a stationary (sp) store or
some such, they have the local engraving shop make it for them and add their
cost. The stamp would be your personal design, you just had someone else
make it into a stamp. You can get just the rubber stamp and glue it
to your own backing.
