History TPI

The theme for this TPI (Tags plus Inchies) swap is history or her story. I decided to do a retro theme. I used Crystal effects for the cocktail, which shows up a little better in the second photo.

Tags plus Inchie Swap

This is for a Tags plus Inchie swap I'm in. The tags have to have at least one inchie on them and the hostess sets a theme for each new group. This theme was for "Weather or Not" and you could design it however you interpret it. I have trouble thinking outside of the box and really struggled with this one. I am not happy with the way this came out, yet I have to make 19 more. It took me all day to make this one because I kept changing things on it.

Weather or Not TPI



I went in and changed it again. The one on the right is the newest version. I colored in the raindrops and outlined the cloud and the tag, and changed the ribbon. I like this one a little better.

Pierced Tag Swap

I signed up for a pierced tag swap and this is what I came up with for the LOVE theme.

I used Stampin' Up! In Colors Purely Pomegranate (retired) ink, cardstock and double stitched ribbon, and the new In Colors Pink Pirouette cardstock. I also used a pink skittle for the middle of the flower. The light pink ribbon is from Martha Stewart. Stamp sets are "so many sayings" ( retired), and "stitched exotics".

April's Monthly Inchie swap

Here are my inchies for the monthly inchie group. These are for group 5. Nature



The sand dollar is stamped with Stampin' Up! Sahara Sand ink on Sahara Sand cardstock and the square is Night of Navy cardstock.

New inchie swap

Here are my inchies for group 1 for a new swap I signed up for.

Flip Flops

Baby girl Tag

I am in a swap for tags. So, I was in the middle of doing inchies, and I get an idea for a tag and run with it. I made 12 of these. When I went to mark it off as complete, turns out I didn't even sign up for the group for 'baby girl' tags. So, here they are anyways. I will just have to wait for someone to start one and I will be ready. i had just got the new spring stack and I used it for the background.

Animal and Food Trinchies

Here are my animal and food trinchies.



I stamped the flowers for the background. I used the SU ticket punch for the corners.




I stamped the "What's Cookin'? onto a transparency. I stamped the hotdog and hamburger and colored them with SU markers, and then I used red brads to attach the transparency to the cardstock.
Now I have 8 sets left to create. I'm getting there.

More trinchies

These are some more of the trinchies I made yesterday. The first one is for Wedding.



Here is my nature



This one is for insects



This is for birthday



So, I have 8 sets completed now. Only 10 more sets to go!

Summer trinchies

Here is my set for the summer trinchies. I will add stickles to the ice cream. I cut out the ice cream cones and put pop dots on the back.



Spring trinchies

Here are my spring trinchies. I used SU watercolor crayons, aqua pen on watercolor paper.



Working on trinchies (3x3's)

I am working on my trinchies today for a swap. I signed up for 18 groups, but I only have to do 5 trinchies for each one. This is my Easter trinchie...



510 inchies!


Here is a pic of 17 sets of inchies. Each set has 30 inchies. These are just for one swap. I signed up for 14 sets and am including an additional 3 sets for one particular group. If they were all laid down in a row, they would total 42.5 feet. That's a lot of inchies!

Wedding Tag

Here is a wedding tag that I made for a swap I'm in. I stamped the couple on a piece of white cardstock and then I stamped "Happily ever after" on a piece of vellum. The bow holds the two pieces together.

Happy everything card

My son asked if I had a "going away" card. I didn't, so I hurry up and put this one together for him because he needed it right away for a co worker. Its 4x4 and I put a transparency sheet for the window and pop dotted the inside flower.



Hubby did it again! Happy Birthday Card for me


My hubby snuck into my craft room and made this card for me for my birthday! He even matched the ink to the cardstock! He couldn't find my white cardstock, so he used printer paper, and it wrinkled a little when he glued it.

April Monthly Inchie

Here are my group 2 inchies for April. The theme is nature. I painted the background and then edged it with a 'gold' pen. I'm posting three views because its so hard to catch the shimmer.

Monthly Inchie Swap

Here are my March inchies for the monthly inchie swap I am in. These are for group 5. The colors are 'baby blue', 'baby pink' and a 'bright green'. I did my own background paper so it would match.





Stampin' Up! colors used: pink pirhouette, soft sky, and gable green.

Friends Inchie

Here is my friends inchie. I watercolored the background with SU watercolor crayons and an aqua painter.

Monthly Inchie Swap

I just came across a picture of my color inchies that I made for a monthly inchie swap that I am in. I made 3 sets of 10 for this group. We had to use the colors "baby pink", "baby blue" and bright green. The colors look washed out because of the flash.

Christmas Inchie

Here is my Christmas inchie for one of my swaps.

Halloween Inchies

Here are my Halloween Inchies for group 10

More Inchies

Here are some more of my inchies. These three are for a swap I'm in. The first one I watercolored with my watercolor crayons and an aqua painter, and the second one I colored with my SU markers. These are both done on watercolor paper.







I had fun making the following inchies. These are not for any swaps 'yet'.



On these flowers, I watercolored the background paper, inked the edges and hand colored the flowers with sharpies.




And this is a side view of the flower and scrap inchie to show the height.
