I was trying out my new script stamps (the Swashy Letters from Mama Elephant) a few days ago and left everything on the corner of the coffee table when I was done. I've walked by it numerous times since then and today finally decided I should put the three stamps I used back on the sheet. I'm sure you can see where this is going...I can't find the darn 'h' anywhere! I've searched high and low...even inside the stamp pad in case it somehow fell off without me noticing. Grr! That's what I get for procrastinating.
Do as I say, not as I do and put those stamps back as soon as you're done!

As soon as I convinced myself that it was lost forever I usually find lost stamps stuck to to the back of something unexpected... ....it will turn up!!!

My suggestion is to wrap tape - with the sticky side facing outward - around your hand like a bandage. Pat all around & under the coffee table & other nearby furniture. Also, if you wear shoes inside your house, you may want to check their soles, the closet floor/shelves where they're stored, the floor mats in your car, etc. Best wishes with your search...

In my house the cat would have taken in. My scrap room is in the basement and I find my stuff either upstairs or strewn through part of the basement. Sometimes they will even bring the small Cutterbee scissors upstairs. Ha.

Hope it turns up. Mine usually do - stuck to something random!

It's probably hanging out with my missing tiny balloon stamp! They are like little kids, have to watch them every second or they wander off.

On any piece of paper that had been on the table? Anything that has been moved since you started looking.

In my house the cat would have taken in this happens to me, too- but once the cat takes something, the dog decides it's edible. <sigh> OP, I hope you find it soon! |

My leaf stamp. Tiny tiny leaf stamp showed up after about a month.
I believe it was stuck to another stamp set.

Like you, I waited too long to put away some stamps, and one or two have gone missing. Actually more than that, although not a ton. Only one is truly lost and unlikely to ever turn up again. I think the vacuum ate it.

Thanks ladies! I've got my fingers crossed it shows up stuck on something! Any sign of the stamp? I hate missing things, and I find myself worrying about your stamp. LOL! |

No, sadly it is still missing. I am thinking about digging through the vacuum canister but have been putting that unpleasant task off. Don't worry too much on my behalf, though. I've used this incident as an excuse to buy the Sophisticated Script stamp set from Concord and 9th. When it arrives I'll see if the lower case h will mesh with the Mama Elephant set. |

That would be the last place I would look. My scrap room is the only room in those that my husband won't vacuum. I maybe vacuum in there once a month. I want to be able to find something if I lose it! |

One time I searched all over for a little stamp I thought I'd lost, only to find I'd put it away in the wrong place. I spent a good deal of time looking for that little flower.
Maybe your stamp stuck to something you were using at that time? Hope you find it before you have to dumpster dive your vacuum.
