Stamped concrete is usually done when a new driveway is poured and not as a veneer.

My guess is if you are having a problem with pavers which were added over your concrete driveway, you ultimately will have a similar problem with a stamped concrete veneer breaking up as well. A veneer cannot take the wear and tear of 1" of concrete over your existing driveway, for years and years.

If you are really unhappy with your existing driveway and like pavers or stamped concrete, I'd advise you to rip out your driveway completely and do either treatment from scratch. Either of those as a new treatment will last forever because it is done properly.
