Monday, January 3rd is the first Every Inchie Monday.
For those of you who do not know what an inchie is, it's a one-inch square piece of artwork. Here are some inchies I created in December 2008
The theme this first Monday of January is ECLECTIC. Definition: Made up of or combining elements from a variety of sources.
Couldn't make just one of course. I started out with a couple of pages from an old book and a paper doily . . .
Then I spritzed some Midnight Blue Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist, some Adirondack Butterscotch and Stream Color Washes on the pages and used the paper doily in places . . .
Once the pages were dry I did some rubber stamping then cut the page in strips . . .
I cut some cardboard into 1" squares and then attached them to various parts of the strips with Glossy Accents and then gave them a trim . . .
To make the little 1-inch pieces "stand out", I ran the 4 sides of each one over a black Archival Ink Pad. I liked the way these looked without adding more to them . . .

Lined up with top coats of Glossy Accents waiting patiently to dry . . .
I'm saving the 2nd page for another project. Maybe some atc's???? . . .
Next Monday's theme is the word Powerful.
