I LOVE this series! You both have so much living history to tell and it is fascinating to learn (and remember) so much of our beloved stamping and paper arts hobby! Thank you so much, I look forward to all of the installments. Thank you Hero Arts for being the foundation for us!
Thank you, Aaron & Jennifer for sharing the history of crafting with Hero Arts and the artists you’ve showcased, well-loved Gina K.❤❤❤
I’m catching up and got the opportunity to watch this today. Love love loved hearing the history. I had no idea that the stamping/crafting industry is really only about 50 years old. Very eye opening that this industry and I have been developing and growing together. I’ve truly enjoyed your time to share. Thank you.
So amazing to hear this history!! I love to learn the history behind companies, especially this industry!! Thank you!!
Finally watching on reply. Such a great story of how Hero Arts came to be! Happy 50th! Looking forward to many more years of buying your products! Love seeing the old catalogues!
Learning all this history about Hero Arts and the craft in general was fascinating, illuminating, and thought-provoking, really. Aaron is so eloquent and articulate--it was time so well-spent learning and listening... I'm very much looking forward to the series--and I'm quite excited for what Tim Holtz will reveal to enlighten us about himself and the craft in general.
Just watched replay. I had no idea about the interesting history. It is likely that Hero Arts made my first Stampin Up! rubber stamps I purchased in 2002/2003. As a Hero Arts Premium monthly subscriber I am simply hooked - you never know what is coming. Stampin and Scrapping certainly go together as it is the combo I have used now for gasp 20 years! Congratulations on all the innovations.
OMGosh; I lived these years! I started stamping in the late 80s early 90s with Hero Arts and Personal Stamp Exchange. I also have stamps from Stampa Rosa, Cowtown Stamps from Vacaville, CA, where I lived as a kid. Most of them are not on their wood blocks anymore, however, I still use them. I still scrapbook very similar to the pages that you have shown today. In fact, when I got divorced and moved to another state, I started working in a scrapbook store and taught a class called “Anything you can do on a card you can do it on scrapbook page.”. It was a lot of fun! Unfortunately, I ignored the prompting to get onto the You Tube bandwagon and start up my own YT channel! If I had done it 10 years ago, I’d be so much further ahead today! I have loved this interview!
i started watching this wonderful series watching Tims episode and ending with this one. i have enjoyed getting to “know” these great people.,i’ve been stamping sonce the mid 1990’s. A few years ago a great friend gave me the first card that I made her in 1995. She had put the card on her craft room wall. You couldn’t read what i had written to her.. the image was a wreath that could barely bee seen but she had it on her wall. she Then she gave the card back to me because she was dying of cancer and wanted to return the card to me with love.❤️ I think we all have stories about cards that touched others. How blessed we are. ❤️
Watching this made me extra happy I chose to subscribe to MMH kits!
I love Hero Arts...i am there almost from the beginning...so much fun and things in all the years discovered...In the beginning just Rubber and wood....i have still so many lovely stamps...also from PSX
This was such a joy to watch! I remember all the stores and companies. Thank you for sharing!❤
This was amazing! Watched the replay and loved hearing all about Hero Arts’ history!
❤ watched the replay, what an awesome story. So happy to be part of this community. Thank you Hero Arts.
This was so fun and interesting to watch, thank you to you both! Love HERO ARTS!❤❤
thoroughly enjoying this! thank you for sharing
I wasnt surprised that Archivers went out of business. Every time I walked in there they looked at me like I'd walked into their living room without an invitation. They shared a parking lot with Hobby Lobby. Guess where I preferred to go????
Revolutions for my 25+ years of stamping are :Stampin Up stamp scrubber and cleaner, quality cardstock, multi-colored ink pads (Kaleidacolor), metallic (Encore) and mica (Mica Magic and Opalite) ink pads, Spellbinders Wizard and oval cutting/embossing dies, Cricut embossing folders, unmounted rubber stamp mounting systems (HALO, cling, and Tack’N Peel), clear stamps, thin metal dies that match stamped images, Cricut cutting machine, Stamp a Ma Jig to Stamp Oasis Restamper to current stamping platforms, twinkling H2Os watercolor paint, shimmer sprays (Tattered Angels), and layering stamps and stencils.
And I still can’t let go of those 40 + year old stamps. Thanks Hero arts for also being available to the military families.
Yes! I still have many of mine! Rubber just stamps better!
Enjoyed learning the history of Hero Arts. I remember I always look for Hero Arts brand when I had the opportunity to shop for stamps in the early years.
Love this series!
I'm so impressed with this series. I'm also really interested in all the backstories... It's fascinating to learn all this. I feel like it's TMZ for paper crafters 🤣
OMG!! viva las vegas stamps!! I am from South Dakota and we were going to Las Vegas for market. At the time, I drug my husband and his boss to the store.....where it was located was kind of scary, we had to be buzzed in due to bars on the door, we almost backed out! We had SO much fun!! I still have the stamps I bought from them and a teeny plastic flamingo that the gave to you when you bought items!
I miss all the Scrapbooking & stamp stores from the early 2000's. We had several different ones in Columbus, Ohio.
Hero Arts your kits are awesome!
Than you for this. ❤
Most of my Hero Arts stamps/dies are from Papertrix store during the last 15 years. Unfortunately, pandemic caused Papertrix to close. So many wonderful designs from Hero Arts where I want it all. Have a lot of PSX stamps since I love the detailed designs from their stamps.
This is a superb video. I wonder if PSX was in Santa Rosa or Petaluma...
This is such fun! Thanks for sharing the great information.
Still prefer rubber stamps for detail and some techniques (stamping into UTEE, ironing wax paper on stamp, stamping with bleach).
No I think it was the Rubber Stamp Catalog or something. I am a current subscriber to Rubberstampmadness.
What was that book you could buy where each of many companies like Bizarro would have 1 page showing a bunch of their stamps. Was it the Rubber Stamp Catalog? What years was it produced?
There was a magazine called Rubber Stamp Madness....is that what you mean?
