About
Welcome to Stamping Over the Rainbow! We hope you like it here. Ours is a world of ever-blossoming creativity, and we like it that way. This website is another creative outlet for us because it allows us to post some of our work and, in Phil’s case, to fuel his ever-growing love of web design.
Who’s this Phil character, anyway?
I’m glad you asked. I’m Phil. I started stamping in the fall of 2006, thanks in large part to my partner, Robert. After a somewhat timid beginning, I quickly grew to love stamping, crafting, and creativity in general. A creative side I never knew existed, or repressed somehow, has erupted in me. I have a variety of creative interests, many of which I showcase here. I love stamping, of course, and lately I’ve also grown fond of drawing (chicken scratch sketches, naturally, but I’m still learning). My latest fascination is calligraphy. I’ll be posting a little bit of everything here.
I also run this website behind the scenes. Which means that the pretty appearance you see before you is entirely my fault, as I took it upon myself to design the look and feel of the site. It also means that I’m tech support, emergency services, paramedic, life guard/saver, etc. Should you want to get in touch with me, I welcome any and all email:
And Robert, in his own words…
I was dragged into a stamp store, nearly kicking and screaming. What would I have in common with little old ladies stamping, I thought. Boy, was I wrong! I found a fantastic group of people, of all ages, who have become dear friends. They accepted me immediately, helped me with stamping techniques, and allowed me to set free my inner artistic self. I had studied art throughout my 4 years of high school, but had not really done anything with my skills since. Stamping, card-making, creating ATCs and Stampscapes have opened up a whole new world of creativity. It’s now 3 years since I stepped into the shop and there’s no going back! I love my creations and my stamping buddies. Oh, and by the way, I love bling! Almost every time I make a card, I ask myself “Does it need a little bit of bling?” And I usually add some, whether it needs it or not!
