a trio of inchies....

Still Having fun with my Tyvek Paper from
The Stamping Queen
I used the leftover paper from my 'whisper' ATC a couple of posts earlier Super Tiny Inchies.... I love them :)
I Stitched repeatedly over the 'Tyvek' as you can see in the close up then used some Collections Elements Chipboard pieces inked with Red inkpad, then stitched them in place, then coated with Mod Podge :)
This is a special little set for my Master 9 :)
He Collects Stamps, and just loves mini things
and Yes he loved his little Inchy Set :)

TWEET....

Let me just start by saying.....
the image shown is larger than the actual INCHIE!!! LOL!!
that's right.... this is an inchie... Just couldn't help myself had to post it large...

for those who don't know the name inchie comes from the fact that this piece is 1x1"
Well Joanne asked me to be involved in her inchie swap yesterday,and as I'm quite keen to get my inchie collection going I jumped at the offer.... last night I made all of my yellow paper, I used credit card technique to apply about 5 different shades of yellow acrylic paint to my paper, As Yellow is the theme of the swap,

I used my Catslife Press birdie stamp, Versa Magic Ink and computer generated word... and there you have it.... well one anyway.... LOL! I've got a few more to make for the swap...
I was going to make the whole set last night....but decided in the end with my head cold, that sleep was the better option... maybe tonight they get finished :O)

My first set of Inchies

this was my first ever set of inchies I recently made for a swap,
gosh they are little... {stating the obvious!!! lol!!}
anyway, Shary organised this swap, and the theme was flowers, so I used my hero arts Zinnia Stamp for this, set, the background is made with about 5 different versa color cubes all stamped onto a glass chopping board and then sprayed with water, and the flower is stamped with the versa bark, also used are Maria George crystals and computer generated words.

I hope you and yours are well, our family has been battling colds and such, they seem to hang around for such a long time, I can't seem to shake one I've had for a while now...
Edit: Mel asked me about Inchies, and as there may be some others who aren't familiar with this term, Yes Mel they are 1" square, and they are swapped like ATC's
some people just collect them and store them in 'coin' holder pages the same way a coin collector stores his coins, others use them on cards and other papercrafts!
hope that helped :O)
