Craggy Bearded Man Stamp

[Theresagram]

I need a stamp of a scroungy, bearded man that's 2ishx3ish inches. He has to have a beard....has to be scroungy and close to that size.

Anyone?

[XrayAmy]

This guy is 2" x 3" and can be found here near the bottom. (http://beeswaxrubberstamps.com/menwomen.htm)

[Theresagram]

He's interesting....but I was hoping for something more scroungy looking...
I'm thinking, ragged, retched, nasty.... :)

[XrayAmy]

Beeswax doesn't do "nasty" :laugh:

[Theresagram]

LOL Well, nasty can be fun!! Teehee

[XrayAmy]

LOL Well, nasty can be fun!! Teehee

Now I wanna see what you end up creating with whatever stamp you find!

[Theresagram]

If I can ever find the stamp I'm looking for I will post it...that is if i can shrink the darn pics....i tried sending my stuff from my aol account to my yahoo acount and back but got an error message on the yahoo end...saying that my aol screen name wasn't accepting email from that screeen name. Argh!

[stampin stacy]

saying that my aol screen name wasn't accepting email from that screeen name

So basically you are not talking to yourself. Now that is funny! :))

[Theresagram]

Yeah, something like that. Strange....I didn't think I was schizo :confusion:

[TimeforT]

:noway: Get Stacy to introduce yourselves to each other.....

[Stampo]

Then, I guess our Santa Claus and Jesus stamps are out of the question?

[Theresagram]

That's a good idea...maybe after an introduction I'll start talking to myself. LOL

Stampo....no Santa or Jesus wouldn't work...I need something kind of scuzzy.

[Spideycindy]

Ya know this quest intrigued me so I went searching and bummer I could not find any either...sometimes you can find aged faces with lots of wrinkles...age lines but not the other...so what about finding a correctly sized male face and edit it to add stamped texture for the beard and heavy brows, hair etc...when there is nothing create it from what you can? That is just a thought and if it helps I talk to myself all the time and quite often I even answer.;)
Good luck...

Hey, Stampo, Do you have a stamp of Divine without makeup?? He fits the description quite well.:shock: :)) :)) ~C8>

[Theresagram]

Thanks Cindy. I've been thinking that I might have to go with a printed image if I can find one somewhere and maybe alter it to make it look more like what I'm looking for. I would really love to find a stamp, but I'll make something else work if I have to.

[stampin stacy]

Get Stacy to introduce yourselves to each other

Theresa, I'd like to intrduce you to a new friend of ours her name is Theresa.

:))

[Theresagram]

Thanks Stacy....she certainly sounds like a great gal... will have to get to know her....maybe borrow some of her stamps...

Argh!

A thought...once you get the email to your Yahoo account mail it your yahoo account again to shrink it. Aol is oh so wonderful about bouncing emails if you haven't added the address to your 'safe' list.

I use Outlook & email md-lg photos saved on my computer (o.k. saved to our house server, but it's the same principal) to my own email address for the same computer. I don't know how well this works for online email services. :confusion: Also, you should be able to choose the save size when you scan in the project, using your scanner utility software. (I use 75 dpi as my system won't except the standard 72 dpi.) My old scanner & Vista don't get along, so I have to open the utility everytime I want to scan something instead of just pushing the 'scan' button on the scanner. I figured out the email thing when I used to take digital photos of all my crew projects & they saved too large to email more than a couple at a time. :o

Theresa dear, some days my chats with myself are the best conversation I get to have! Plus you can always come here to chat & we get to have the fun of figuring out which one of you we're talking to! :))

That scary man I saw awhile ago on your site and thought I might be able to make him work if I can add a beard somehow...

I might order that one if I can't find something with a beard

[Fliss]

:shock: :shock:O.M.G. I just fell off my throne!:shock: :shock:
:evil: Really Scarey!:evil:

[Theresagram]

Thanks Jenna...I'm still trying to figure out Vista...Grrr, the new computer as a whole and the new scanner... I can just feel the grey hairs popping out all over....good thing for L'Oreal! Dh suggested today that I send him the pics at work and he can shrink them down for me. So I'll try that before I do anything else. Better the grey hair on him than me... :laugh:

I have caught myself talking to myself...on occaision..but I'm at the stage in my life where I hate to admit it...or else I forget the conversations. LOL

[stmpstone]

For your bearded man, I'd check with Wayne at VivaLasVegastamps. I think he has everything.
Claudia

[Fliss]

Oh Yes! I have to agree with you on this one....Why not stamp it about 4/5 times and have a go at using art pens for adding the beard? What have you got to lose?:confusion:

[Theresagram]

The "scary man" isnt' exactly what I had in mind, but if I can't find what I do have in mind I'll maybe order it.

There's a dirth of scraggly old man stamps. :(

[Fliss]

I hope you get what you want xx

[Inky Whiskers]

Beats talking to the walls!:D

Sure does! I talk to the cats too, but I don't expect them to answer. :D

[Theresagram]

I talk to my friend Amy's cat and he talks back.....I say Meow and he says Meow......I say Meeeeoooow and he says Meeeeoooow. :)

[Fliss]

So! You talk to the cat's.....I Feed and talk to my 'Hedgehogs....Starlings....Jackdaw's.....Crows.... Seagulls.......Sparrows....Blue Tits....Robins....and the delightful 'Jenny Wrens'....Mr & Mrs Black (BlackBirds). The funniest thing I have seen is our Big 'Jim Crow' chasing away the seagulls from the food table! Priceless...:laugh:

[Theresagram]

Too funny. I mostly just talk to cats and dogs. I can't be around cats much because I'm allergic...but when at my friends house they always climb up on my chest and sit and look at me. They are funny animals.

[Stampo]

Just glue on some cat or dog hair for a beard...

[Inky Whiskers]

Just glue on some cat or dog hair for a beard...

I'd be happy to mail her some! :D

[Theresagram]

I'm allergic to cats! Dh is allergic to dogs.

I found some pics online...one of them might work...

Definately Wild. I love to sneak into the garden around midnight to watch them, especially when the babies are about too.

Stampo...so far the "scary man" has come the closest to what I need....
'cept the no beard thing... but i do have an order i need to place soon anyway.

I actually found a drawing online that might work for my scuzzy bearded man...maybe

[Inky Whiskers]

Gee, Stampo, you are such a helpful guy! :))

[StampFrancisco]

Hes' got a beard but is 3 x 4

[Theresagram]

OMG!!!! I think he'll work!!!! He looks perfectly wretched!!! Just what I was looking for!!! Woohoo!!!

Oh darn....that means I'll have to shop for more stamps because I can't place an order for just one stamp...that would be such a waste of postage! :laugh:

Thanks so much!!!

[StampFrancisco]

I don't think lack of choice will be a problem:evil:
Catherine

[Theresagram]

No...lack of choice is never a problem with your company. You're one of my favorite booths at the expos! :lovie:

[1hand1heart]

I have a stamp of Osama Bin Laden... he's grundgy and has a scraggly beard. (he's from VLVS!) I don't think that he'll really be what you are looking for!

[Theresagram]

Hey Susi :wave:

No, that wouldn't work at all. The one from Stamp Francisco is very much what I was looking for. I can't wait to place an order and get started on my project!

[1hand1heart]

Oooooh, he is cool! Whatcha gonna make with that old nekkid guy, Theresa?

[Theresagram]

An atc. That's all I can say now. :) I'll post it when I'm done. :cool:

[StampFrancisco]

:blush: You make me blush!
Catherine

[Theresagram]

LOL

[1hand1heart]

Theres, you are a sneaky Pete! I really want to see more of your work! I think you have some really great stuff!

[Theresagram]

Yes, I'm afraid I have to be quiet on this one til I know if what I have in mind will work the way I have pictured... I will post when it's done if it turns out ok.

Today was my first day of the crazy billing week. I had chest pains while at work today because I was so stressed out about everything that I have to do. Ack! I'm trying to remain calm... :cool:

[stampin stacy]

Theresagram, take care of yourself and try to not get stressed out. Thank goodness for ink and rubber to play with when we need a little stress relief. Can't wait to see what you are up to, you have us curious...... ;)

[1hand1heart]

I've told you a million times, you need to take care of you, even through this crazy time at work. I hope that it gets done quick, and that you can get back to being more relaxed. (Or else you will look like the craggy old man stamp!, LOL) We don't want that!

[Theresagram]

Yeah, well....gotta get the work done. The first hectic week is over, hoping next week won't be as bad. My dh gave me his credit card last night and told me I worked so hard all week I should buy myself some stamps.

[Inky Whiskers]

What a kewl DH!!! Lucky you, Theresa, you get him & new stamps. :D

[Stampo]

Great, Theresa... we take all credit cards. LOL

[Inky Whiskers]

Great, Theresa... we take all credit cards. LOL

Don't I know it! :))

[Theresagram]

You guys a so goofy. LOL I'll have to be placing an order with you soon Stampo. But I want to wait til I get the RR to see what I need. Have a few must haves on my list.

I didn't receive any updates on this thread even though I'm subscribed. Hmm...

[Inky Whiskers]

Did you set your notices for 'as they happen', 'daily' or 'weekly'? I do daily notices (Amy had those set for about 9pm est), but am on so much that I usually delete them as I've already ready seen them all. :lol:

[Stampo]

After you get a notice, don't you have to visit the forum before you can receive any additional ones?

[Theresagram]

I set it for daily....and normally I pop on with each notice I get. :confused:

[Inky Whiskers]

I get a whole pile of 'em every night at 9pm est. Every post I've responded to that had action that day is listed. I get daily notices from VLVS too, but those show up in a more random fashion. :D

[Theresagram]

Hmm, that's interesting. All mine seem to come just here and there...from this forum and VLVS.

[Stampo]

The VLVS! ones come as soon as they're posted.

[Theresagram]

so it seems do these...sometimes.

[Inky Whiskers]

The VLVS! ones come as soon as they're posted.

That would explain the random factor of their arrival. :lol:
