tracy
I started stamping nine years ago, after attending
my first stamp show here in the bay area. Since
then, stamping has become the perfect creative
outlet to balance my day job in the techie
world. If I could do it 24/7, I would! I am
primarily drawn to the simple and cute, but
enjoy all different styles of stamping. I love
attending stamp shows to see the newest products,
designs, and techniques. I also like the recent
expansion stamping has seen, riding the wave
of scrapbook popularity (but I'm a stamping
purist at heart and have yet to enter the scrapbooking
world.)
I share the love of stamping with my mom,
Bin Yamamoto, who is also an avid stamper.
Between the two of us, we simply have more
stamping supplies than we know what to do with!
Along the way, we've put some of it to good
use, motivating each other, and converting
several friends into rubberstampers. It's always
fun to stamp with others and to meet new stampers
with the same enthusiasm. In the past few years,
I've been fortunate to have had cards published
in Rubberstamper Magazine, Stamper's
Sampler and Take Ten.
I currently reside with my husband in the
South Bay, where I can often be found holed
up in my craft room till the wee hours of the
morning (my best time to be creative!) When
I'm not aspiring to be a 'professional stamper,'
I also enjoy reading, retail therapy, and reality
tv. I'm looking forward to seeing what the
creative minds here at Stamp on Over come up
with!
