Stamps and More by Eleanor

Meet Your Teacher

Kimberly Hellams

Who Am I?

My name is B. Kimberly Hellams -- otherwise known as Ms. Kim. I am the craziest artist, stamper, crafter, teacher, wife, and mother in town.

If there was ever a person who could not draw a straight line, it’s me. So it took me 30 years to realize that I didn't have to be able to draw to be an artist. One day I came across the statement, "An artist is anyone who creates." At that moment I realized that while I may not be a pen or paint artist, I am still an artist.

My first introduction to the crafting world was during my teen years. Since then, if it was arts or crafts I tried it at least once. Then came rubber stamps. At present, my love for rubberstamping spans about 15 years.

I have had many opportunities to teach rubberstamping at local stores, clubs and events. My goal is to share my love of this art and to inspire others to create their own works of art.
