Heidi's Rubber Stamp JourneyIt's hard to believe it's been 5 years since I fell in love with rubber stamps. I was trying to make a simple "CONGRATULATIONS" card for a roommate who just got engaged. All I had left from some scrapbook materials was one sticker. I didn't want to use it because it was my last one. Stickers run out! Also, one mistake and the whole card is ruined.
About this time, I remembered some rubber stamps that my sister had shown me. A light came on. I realized rubber stamps never run out! You can reuse them one thousand, or even one million times! Imagine the ink colors, paper colors, textures, and sizes. Oh boy! I was hook hook hooked!
As I began, my first cards seemed to be to be a masterpiece. Now, I look back and think my early work is awful, but at the time it seemed like a masterpiece. I wonder what I'll think about my art in 10 years?!

Welcome to my blog. I would like to share my art, accomplishments and publications.
Maybe we'll find out together how my cards will look in ten years!
