Where’s that cheese grater?

   

The Stamper’s Sampler Feb/March edition published my very first full article.  Three of these cards were created for a Ranger Design Team Challenge. (How I miss those monthly challenges to give me a push into my art room!)  Ranger didn’t pick up the project so I pitched it to The Stamper’s Sampler.  They loved it!  The article shows how you can use Ranger’s Penscore and when heated you press it into a surface and it will take on the impression.  Think- a pile of keys, a wicker furniture (like the flower card), or yes, even a cheese grater.

The little “angel” is my godson, Wanbli.  He was coming down a circular slide and when trimmed, he looked like a flying angel to me. 

Look for your own copy of Stamper’s Sampler.  No doubt it’s easier to find that Rubberstampmadness!!

It’s MADNESS!!!

After much searching, I found a copy of Rubberstampmadness magazine. What’s up with JoAnn’s not having it???

On page 40 there is a fantastic review of my first book, “Stamp-A-Card”.   Thanks to Randy Churchwell of Grace Publications for doing this for me!

From the article,

        “Kinnamon, as if sharing  cup of afternoon tea with you, freely shares her personal inspiration for each card design, scattering helpful hints around the text like spoonfuls of sugar.”

Past Cards…Why don’t I have more??

 I make a LOT of cards.  But, if you were to ask me to see them… the best I can offer you is a slide show on my lap top.  My cards are either 1.  sent to family or friends,  2. sent into The Stamper’s Sampler as submissions, or 3.  send directly to a stamp/ink company.  

Once, my friend Karan Olsen-Smith- the fabulous woman behind the fun company- Magic Mesh www.magicmesh.com told me that scrapbookers make things for themselves.  Card people make things for everyone else.  That’s so true!  If I did scrapping, I’d be the only one who wanted the personal pages.  Cards can be for anyone and I wouldn’t want to keep them all to myself.!  I remind myself of that when I wish I had more of my work with me!!  I hope you have a day filled with creation!
