Description:

I love inchies and I wanted to create a swap for inchie lovers that would have a really different theme each time, and that would be easy to complete and light on postage. This will be a part of an ongoing series of inchie swaps...

For this swap, you will make 4 inchies for one partner, but some element of each inchie must have glitter or a gem. You can make a glittery background, use glitter on an element you use (embossed image with glitter embossing powder, punches from glitter paper, loose glitter around the edges, etc), add stick-on gems, etc. Just make something sparkly! If you use loose glitter, please also seal it--I use a little bit of clear liquid varnish over my glitter, but if you use glitter glue, that will be fine on its own. You can use any other media that you like, but please send your best work--you may use stickers, but please use them artistically, and keep with the theme. I am now requiring a 5.0 rating to be able to join these swaps.

F.Y.I. An inchie is a miniature work of art. An inchie measures exactly one inch square and is made of a sturdy paper backing, or it can be made of fabric. Inchies are decorated with a variety of media, including paint, paper, drawing, collage, mixed media, rubber stamps, sewing, etc. If you think that inchies are too small to make creatively, you are wrong! There are many itty bitty things on the market that are perfect for making inchies: scrapbooking paper with small prints, thin ribbon, tiny brads, little rubber stamps, stick-on rhinestones, etc.They are totally addicting once you start!

P.S...This swap is an Type 3 because there is a craft element...
