New Plates Coming SOON!


Although we are not attending CHA, we want to share with you a peek at our new plates.

We have three new collections coming out in September, that are some of our favorites. Inspired by nature, simple surroundings, and the people that make up those surroundings, our next three releases will make you want to sit down, take a deep breath, and CREATE.

Creative nostalgia is a term we use around The Outpost to describe our style. Others might say "vintage grunge", "retro", or just plain "vintage". However you describe the Artistic Outpost style, we hope that you receive inspiration from our art rubber stamps and other sundries.

Happy Stamping!

Downhome Serenity


I Love nature and try to find ways to incorporate in into my art sometimes. I thought the Serenity image was perfect for the wood frame I made. I cut and drilled the deer horn for buttons.

The Rooster says it All!

Stamp plate: Home

I wanted to make a bright happy card and this is a perfect set. The wheat stems and Rooster say it all.

Love the sentiment on this Rooster Vane stamp.
