A friend by the name of Dawn. About 4 or 5 years ago, she worked in a stamp store and then opened a store of her own. I found the projects she had so intriguing that I had to stat stamping. It did take me awhile though.

Another Artist In The Family
I have a niece who is an artist and has appeared to enjoy making cards with her aunt Debbie, even if stamping with the old lady isn't all that much fun. She has a talent that is most impressive though She can draw, really draw, not stick figures like me.
