Some colors are exciting, others are calming and these facts about colors, along with many others, are covered quiet well in this link to Mental Health America.

According to another source, the color green seems to make positive emotions stronger and negative emotions weaker. White and pink may have similar effects, but researchers are still studying those.

The color green can help get the creative juices flowing. Scientists compared it with white, gray, red, and blue, and green helped people do better with both word-based and picture-based activities. So if you’re looking for a new color for your office walls, think green. Or move your desk out to the golf course.

Meanwhile, the color red seems to have the opposite effect and make negative emotions — like those linked to failure and danger — more intense. Your reactions may get faster and stronger when you see it, because your brain sees it as a sign of danger. That’s why your body prepares to defend or attack.

Now whether you are feeling calm, cool, productive and creative, or under attack, we have ink in colors to match your mood, and we also have ink to match the parameters of your project whether you need uv ink, skin safe ink or ink that works on surfaces like fabric or leather.

If your name is not Tommy Bahama, you may need a clothing stamp to correctly indicate whose stuff is yours. Most of the time people just wear their clothes, wash them, dry them and repeat, and they have zero doubt about whose t-shirts are in that pile on the floor. Other times, however, when what you wear may wind up mingling with what others wear, you’ll want a clothing marker to stake your claim to the garb that belongs to you or one of your loved ones.

First, a little background from our Research Department which specializes in finding the history of things that in any way, shape or form can be related to the purchase of custom rubber stamps.

Textiles appeared in the Middle East during the late Stone Age. There is evidence that suggests that humans may have begun wearing clothing somewhere from 100,000 to 500,000 years ago. Primitive sewing needles have been found and are dated to around 40,000 years ago. Dyed flax fibers which have been found in a prehistoric cave in the Republic of Georgia are old some 36,000 years. Some 25,000 years ago the Venus figurines started appearing in Europe, that were depicted with clothing. They had basket hats or caps, belts at the waist and a strap of cloth above the breast.

Today clothing is mass produced and just about everyone wears it, and marking what you wear with your identity is useful in a wide range of applications, including stamps to mark clothes for kids going to camp, kids in sports teams, people who participate in mass sporting events like marathons and so on.

With a high-quality clothing stamp, you can save time and energy! Allowing you to quickly stamp and go, clothing stamps are a reliable solution for a range of purposes. We offer a reliable, high-quality clothing stamp and accessories. You can choose options allowing for permanent impressions capable of lasting up to 40 washes without removal and lasting up to 90-degree temperatures.

We can customize up to three lines of print on each stamp to include name and address for a convenient labeling system. Choose from leading names in the industry, such as Trodat and Artline for quality and performance you can count on for many years. The ink used for this type of application is non-toxic and acid-free for an option that is safe for skin contact. It is also smudge proof and water resistant, so it will not rub off on skin or other clothing.

So whether you like to dress down, dress up or dress for success, where you want to make it clear that what you wear is yours alone, just visit us and choose from our selection of clothing stamps and fabric markers! We’re sure you’ll identify with our products!

Ever wondered what the biggest concert in history was? Here’s a look at some of the record-breaking crowds that artists have played for.

The Rolling Stones’ 2006 performance on Copacabana beach in Rio certainly lived up to the name of the tour, ‘A Bigger Bang’. An audience of 1.5 million watched the rockers perform hits including Satisfaction and It’s Only Rock n Roll from a stage the height of a seven story building.

Germany’s Love Parade festival was famous for attracting huge crowds, and in 2008 it was bigger than ever, with around 1.6 million partygoers joining the festivities in Dortmund. The world’s top DJs helped transform the city into the biggest free party Germany had ever seen.

Music legend Rod Stewart holds the current world record for the biggest gig of all time — in 1994, he also performed on Copacabana Beach to to a staggering 3.5 million people celebrating New Year’s Eve. Although 99% of the crowd probably couldn’t see a thing, being part of the world’s biggest concert at New Year must have made for a pretty amazing atmosphere and a night the gig-goers will never forget.

Concerts, performances and live entertainment shows are often some of the most memorable moments of a person’s life, notwithstanding the old 70s adage, “If you remember it, you weren’t there.”

So how does the Rubber Stamp Champ figure in to the wild world of events? We play a gatekeeper role with a host of products that can help with security, the door, ticketing, admission and so on, with entry-re-entry hand stamping supplies that include Memories Tattoo ink pads, skin safe ink kits, ultra violet inks, black light supplies, small around hand stamps and other elements that can be used very effectively for crowd control at nightclubs, water parks, indoor and out door concerts, and any and all paid events to provide an easy way for event managers to determine who has paid, who has provided a ticket, or a cover charge, and who has not.

When it comes to planning an event or running a business, stamps are a helpful addition to your arsenal for many reasons. When running an attendance-based business, hand stamps let you show important information such as guests under the drinking age or proof of admittance in place of tickets. Whether at a nightclub, theme park or other themed event, invisible ink products can add an extra element of fun to the party. With this type of ink, also called UV ink, it will only show under a black light.

We offer a range of options when in search of a reliable hand stamp kit for a range of purposes. All of these products can be customized with text or artwork at no extra charge. Our inventory features an array of sizes made from lightweight materials. These small sized stamps are ideal for easy transport from one location to another and some models will easily fit in a pocket. Choose from both self-inking models and non-self-inking options, depending on your preference. Self-inking stamps come inked with a water-based ink and are safe for skin.

In any event, Rubber Stamp Champ has a large selection of stamps, pads, inks, supplies and more to help you make sure you have a good time showing others a good time!

Before Black Friday came to mean a retail sales extravaganza advertised weeks in advance and signifying great deals on everything from cars to pajamas, including discount prices on rubber stamps, it was initially a term used to describe something that happened where lots of people lost money, rather than saving it, and almost no one recalls, that along the same lines, there was also actually in more recent history a Black Monday, that was also about losing money, lots of money, not saving a few bucks.

The first recorded use of the term “Black Friday” was applied not to post-Thanksgiving holiday shopping but to a financial crisis: specifically, the crash of the U.S. gold market on September 24, 1869. Two notoriously ruthless Wall Street financiers, Jay Gould and Jim Fisk, worked together to buy up as much as they could of the nation’s gold, hoping to drive the price sky-high and sell it for astonishing profits. On that Friday in September, the conspiracy finally unraveled, sending the stock market into free-fall and bankrupting everyone from Wall Street barons to farmers.

Monday, Oct. 19, 1987, is remembered as Black Monday. On that day, global stock exchanges plunged, led by the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index and Dow Jones Industrial Average in the U.S. The strain sent world markets tumbling and for a panic-driven period of time people were again, not worried about saving money, but instead about losing their butts.

With all that behind us, hopefully, the more recent Black Friday designation came about as a happy day when retailers enjoyed a positive, and often dramatic, uptick in sales activity. As the story goes, after an entire year of operating at a loss “in the red” stores would supposedly earn a profit “went into the black” on the day after Thanksgiving, because holiday shoppers blew so much money on discounted merchandise.

In an ironic way Black Friday has morphed from chaos on Wall Street into chaos at retail outlets nationwide, where getting in on prices that have been slashed has led to war zone tactics where shoppers, if they can be called that, resort to guerilla tactics and where life and limb seem secondary to getting 70% off on a big screen TV.

In that regard we are happy to announce that you won’t have to risk getting nailed upside the head with a spinning back fist in order to save money on over 3000 custom and stock rubber stamp products, because our special Black Friday rubber stamp prices are offered in the relative calm of online shopping at our famous website, RubberStampChamp.com!

Rubber stamps have been around for a long long time, and so has the logging industry, and in a way that might not easily come to mind without some clues, the two are intimately related.

The reason is this; Way back when rubber stamps first began there were no self inking or pre inked stamps like there are today, in fact there were only wood mounted rubber stamps made with a handle for use with a seperate ink pad.

That first clue is a pretty good one because wood mounted indicates logs might well be involved.

So let’s take a look at logs and logging and the trees that grow and eventually wind up, in part, as rubber stamps, and then we’ll get back to more of what you can expect if you do indeed want a wood mounted rubber hand stamp and you decide to come to Rubber Stamp Champ.

Logging arose when settlers first started arriving in Jamestown in 1607 and since then has formed a booming economic structure. Logging became incredibly important when the need for ship building became more frequent. In fact, in the 1790s, New England was exporting 36 million feet of pine boards and at least 300 ship masts per year.

The logging industry was so busy and in demand that the New England area regularly shipped lumber and products elsewhere and with the start of the Industrial Revolution the demand for lumber in general spiked. During the 1830s, Bangor, Maine, became the world’s biggest lumber shipping port in the United States.

Life for loggers was certainly not the easiest and some described it as simply rugged. These men worked in harsh and dangerous conditions with little to no access to water, warm meals, and clean clothes. Not to mention that they were away from their families and living in damp, dirty camps close to their work sites.

It wasn’t uncommon for these men to catch diseases and other things such as lice due to their work conditions. But one thing is for sure, they were extremely hard workers, paving a way for future men to earn money and take care of their families as well.

Today, with better equipment and probably a tad less suffering on the part of loggers and their families, trees are felled, trucked, cut up and put to use in everything from chairs and tables, to new home construction to the printed materials that so annoyingly come to your mailbox daily even though all you ever do is throw them right in the trash.

Fortunately, rubber hand stamps mounted on wood are way more toward the table and chair end of the usefulness spectrum as it relates to products made from trees, than is junk mail.

In an interesting way, even though rubber stamp technology has evolved far beyond the traditional wood mounted variety, we still make thousands of them, because in some ways they can’t be replaced by technology, since custom sizes and shapes can be made of wood in an almost unlimited way, where the newer self inkers are convenient but limited by a set number of sizes.

At Rubber Stamp Champ we make more custom rubber stamps online daily than anyone else in America, and while you won’t hear the sounds of large trees coming down anywhere near our place, if you did happen to walk in, for sure, back in the shop, you would hear the chop saw running as our stamp makers are custom cutting wood blocks for stamp orders as we speak.

We also offer custom assembly options on our Pullman line to give you the ability to customize each band by choosing between numbers 0-9, letters A-M, or letters N-Z on each band! These products are available in roman and Gothic fonts as well.
