Stamps & Sons will make a customized rubber stamp out of any image uploaded to their easy-to-use site.
When a visitor first arrives to the Stamps & Sons homepage, they are greeted by an image of lovely ink designs and a large, interactive square at the center of the page. The square invites the visitor to drag and drop any file -- PNG, JPG or GIF -- into the square and watch it become a customized rubber stamp. The ink stamps that Stamps & Sons creates can be used for a variety of purposes, from branding artisan product tags to making homemade wedding invitations.
