Hello! My name is Mark Jetton and I’m the owner and designer of Deadbeat
Designs, a little stamp company in Central Texas. I’ve been making stamps for
10 years or so and sell to lucky stores all across the country. While I specialize in
Texas imagery, I have a variety of other themes and I’m adding more all the time!
I’m originally from Houston and worked at a great stamp/stationery store called
Iconography off and on for over 15 years doing demos, making samples and
selling other company’s stamps. I’ve been published in many rubber stamp
magazines and have done three covers for Rubber Stamp Madness. One day
after one too many margaritas I decided to go into business for myself and the
rest is history! Most recently I helped create and run Stamp Salado and still work
there one day a week. The other 6 days are spent designing stamps, trimming
rubber, indexing wood mounts and filling wholesale orders.

I am REALLY picky so Deadbeat Designs stamps are made to rigorous
standards which means deeply etched rubber and beautiful maple wood
mounts. I do all the work except vulcanize the rubber. Naturally I think my
stamps are perfect but if one ever slips through my quality control department
and you find one that just won’t stamp right, please do not hesitate to contact me
and I will try to solve the problem!

If you know of a stamp or scrapbook store that needs my stamps, tell them to get
in touch! For retail orders, you’ll need a Paypal account to order from me online.
Enjoy!

At this time, I sell only mounted rubber stamps. I know unmounted stamps are
very popular when it comes to storage and cost but there is just no substitute for
a good old fashioned wood mounted stamp! By mounting my stamps onto wood,
I can be sure that you will get a good impression every time! Plus I want my
stamps to be used - not tucked away in some storage box with all of your other
forgotten unmounted rubber. But you can always remove the rubber from the
wood by putting the stamp in your microwave for 10 seconds and carefully
peeling it off. Don’t be surprised if you hear your stamp scream, however!

I’m no angel but Deadbeat Designs can be considered an ‘angel company’. It’s
such a ridiculous term but as long as you don’t mechanically reproduce my
images I won’t release the dogs. So your hand-stamped cards and crafts are fine
with me but if you make the Forbes 500, I may be giving you a call one day!

I ship most orders USPS Priority Mail. Orders usually take a few days to a week but
if I run out of something it may take a little longer. I’m running this whole operation
by myself so it’s unlikely you’ll get same day service but I’ll try my best to get your
order out ASAP! Shipping rates are as follows:

Total Order     Shipping Rate
$0 - $19.99         $5.50
$20.00-$49.99    $7.50
$50.00-and up    $10.50

If you would like to carry Deadbeat Designs stamps in your store, Please let me
know! A storefront is a must - no home-based businesses. My minimums are 2 per
design, $100 opening orders, $50 reorders. I take credit cards only and all orders
must be paid up front. I'll also be happy to provide hand-stamped samples for you
to display and to give you ideas for classes!
