Two years ago, I flew to Burbank, CA to tape an episode of Craft Lab with their quirky host, Jennifer Perkins.

My episode teaches how to make four different cards using Rubber Stamps. Each card shows a different technique such as masking, making “stamps” with Penscore, etc.

The original airing was November 21 but it will repeat again soon! Catch a repeat of my show on September 27th at noon on the DIY Network.

I hope you can see it! It’s a lot of fun!

I created these three cards with rubber stamps from Hero Arts, Stamper’s Anonymous (Tim Holtz) and B Line Designs.  Lorinda, from the Color Wheel in Enon, Ohio gave me the rubber stamps to create something for a class.  I will be teaching at The Color Wheel this Fall.

Hello Fellow Rubber Stampers!

May 17th, 2007

As I begin this new blog venture, I thought it would be smart to introduce myself.  My name is Heidi Kinnamon.  I am a Rubber Stamp Artist.  My art journey began over 5 years ago.

In that time I have appeared on television on the DIY Network show, “Craft Lab”.  http://web.diynet.com/diy/web/searchResults?searchString=Heidi+Kinnamon&submit=Search

I was interviewed on a radio show with Tera Leigh.

My first book, “Stamp-A-Card” was published by Grace Publications and is now sold on the 100 Proof Press website and also by me.

Most recently, I was chosen to be on Ranger Ink’s 2007 Design Team.  There are 11 of us all under the care of the amazing people at Ranger AND the awesome Tim Holtz!

I began just by playing.  Every day!  When I began, all of my stamps fit into a shoe box!!  Then, I moved to a large storage box on wheels.  Now, I have an entire ROOM full of stamps, ink and materials.It’s been an amazing journey!  In addition,  I have designed cards for Hampton Arts Catalog 2005 and 2007.  I design cards for Michael’s website and  have been posted on the 100 Proof Press website.

My cards have been published in The Stamper’s Sampler, Take Ten and The Catch Up Issue.

It’s been an amazing trip so far.  My love or Rubber Stamps and inks has taken me to California, New Jersey, Minnesota and Chicago.  I hope to grow more and more every day and experience new things.  I hope you enjoy my art!!
