Three Little Inchies

                                

A few years ago, I played with inchies frequently.  I even had a few sheets of inchie stamps, but those are long gone.  For the CAS Mix Up in September, Inchies are the thing!  

I tried some new metallic watercolor paints on cardstock and then stamped a background image and heat embossed it.  Using my old Stampin' Up punch, I created the inches and layered them on black cardstock.  The front layer of my card was dry-embossed with one of the (more than 100) embossing folders in my craft room; I stacked the inchies and then applied a one-word diecut as the sentiment.

Sunday Stamps

I'm still making Christmas cards, although I have all that I need for the year.  This Sunday Stamps sketch makes use of glittery gold cardstock and three Inchies that have been languishing in a drawer for a few years, at least.  The card base is has a bit of a shine to it; the Inchie squares were sponged with SU's Sahara Sand to coordinate with the card.  Tiny snowflakes were cut with a Penny Black die. "Believe" is a stamp from an SU stamp set.  

Anything Goes on Less is More

The "anything goes" theme on this week's Less is More was right down my alley!  I recently purchased some Art Squares aka Inchies, and one was just what I needed for a card with generous white space.  The image is one of my favorite Unruly Girls from Stampington, with a tiny Flourishes sentiment -- all on a Swiss Dots embossed card front.
