July Inchies

Well, here is my final set of inchies for the aMUSEme 6 x 6 inchie swap. The idea was to send 6 inchies to a different partner once a month for 6 months. Margie has a grand finale of sorts up her sleeve when this last month's inchies all all swapped...I can't wait to see what she's dreamed up! These inchies are for Teri. The images are from Phenomenon1859...be sure to take a look...she has some great digital collage sheets. I love Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass so when I saw these little inchie images I just knew I had to use them!

June 6 x6 Inchie Swap

Here are my inchies for the aMUSEme June swap. I found these wonderful new inchie stamps at Carved Stamps and thought I'd use them for the swap this month. They have 36 inchie designs...I love the clean, simple look of them. I've stamped and embossed them on an alcohol ink background. These will be heading out to Ruth...hope she likes them!

aMUSEme

Over at my aMUSEme group it was time for another round of of the 6 x 6 Inchie Swap. I used a charming inchie collage sheet from Inka Stamps. Be sure to check out her site...she has wonderful stamps and collage sheets and a weekly giveaway! These little inchies flew over to Jami this month and I received the most adorable set from Vicki Chow. I'm not posting those though because we're keeping them under wraps until the 6 months are over. Two more to go!

Now, I also finished up my 4 Card Stud ATC's. The theme this month was "sew-n-sew" and I had alot of fun making this one. I used a photo of an actual old pattern...I love the illustrations on the old patterns...and a bit of the lace that I found recently at a local thrift shop.

April Inchies

Here are my inchies for the April swap at Joanne's site. The theme this month is children. If you like inchies be sure to take a look here.

March Inchies - Birds

I came home from work to find these inchies from the March swap on Joanne's sight had flown in...I just love them! She always sends them back presented in such a pretty way. I love birds and these little birdies are just wonderful!

aMUSEme Inchies - April

Well, here's my third installment for the aMUSEme 6x6 Inchie Swap. These will go to Dariel in Minnesota. I found this fun retro Barbie paper not too long ago and knew I'd do something with it. When I was thinking about the inchies for this month's swap I found it again and decided it would just be perfect. I made Dariel an ATC with the leftovers. hope she like them!

More Inchies

I've made these for the aMUSEme March 6x6 inchie swap. This is the second month of our six month swap. I just love these old school book illustrations...so simple and charming. This group of six...actually there's seven, the last poor child just HAD to go too...is destined for Bridget all the way in Australia. So, I'm off to the post office right now!

Inchie swap

The theme for Joanne Wardle's March inchie swap is Birds. Since I missed the February "Spring" swap I decided I could sort of combine the two by using this stamp. So, here are my birds...Mrs. Crow all dressed up in her spring finery!

aMUSEme Inchie Swap

I received my first six inchies today in the aMUSEme 6 x6 Inchie swap from Sherry Wilson and they're so much fun...I love what she's done. The colors are fabulous and the little embellishments she's used are just perfect! It's hard to tell from the scan but some of them are actually 3 dimensional and there are little jewels on each one. They're just wonderful! It's going to be so much fun to receive a new batch of inchies from a different person each month!

aMUSEme 6 x 6 Inchie Swap

The aMUSEme group has started a new inchie swap. Each person playing will be assigned a different partner each month. You have to send your partner six different inchies once a month for 6 months. There's no theme or rules other than the inchies all have to be different and some kind of embellishment must be on at least two of them. At the end of the first 6 months Marjie will award each of the players with an inchie book which she's designing to hold all of the inchies we've collected. Doesn't that sound like fun? Here's my group for this month.

Oodles of Inchies!

Today was a wonderful inchie day. I received inchies from two swaps I participated in...and what sweet little works of art they are! The first group is from the monthly swap hosted by Joanne Wardle...you can check on the next swap at her site. Joanne made a beautiful card to house the inchies then she mounted them inside with a little square of chocolate (now eaten!) right in the middle. How fun!

The second group is from the Red Lead Paperworks swap. I love their stamps and they came out with a set of Valentine inchie stamps that are just precious! You can see some of them in this group.

Valentine Inchies - Take 2

Here's the second set of Valentine inchies all ready to be sent away!

Valentine Inchies

Well, I got started on my Valentine Inchies today. Here's the first batch...I've used a photo of my mom at 16. The photo is signed at the bottom "Love, Mary." Isn't she gorgeous? She's 82 now and still going strong! I love you Mumma...

Inchie Tree

Here's a picture of my inchie Christmas Tree. I've hung all the Christmas inchies from the PWA Christmas Inchie Swap as ornaments.
