This has been such a fun week for me, I hope for you as well. To end in grand style, I’ve got some great things to share with you today.

Let’s jump right in to the inchies my special artist guests made. As you know, I was at Ranger U last week getting my education certification. While there, talented artists and educators Claudine Hellmuth and Tim Holtz were kind enough to accommodate my inchie request. Both their individual styles show through even in the tiny format. I love how Claudine’s tree and bird go off the inchie, and Tim’s is so textured mixed with yummy metal goodness.

Here they are making their creations. Thanks Claudine and Tim. You inspire me to no end. :o)

For my final project I created an alphabet sampler, inchie style. I think I may frame this and hang it in my office. This type of project is right up my alley. I love adding details to stamped pieces. You could also make a family name plate or plaque for a baby’s room. So Fun!

Here’s a closer look so you can see the dimension I’ve added with foam tape.

Supplies

Now are you ready for this?

I am way overdue for a GIVEAWAY. I want to put a name on this box which holds every letter of the Sparkle Clear Alphabet. Just leave me a comment telling what style of INCHIE you are. Do you like Vintage, Shabby, Whimsical? Tell me all about it. I will announce ONE randomly picked winner on Saturday (after I sleep in a bit). Good luck everyone!

Thanks for your interest, kind words and amazing submissions in the Hero Arts Flickr Group. Remember if you haven’t entered the “Inchie” challenge yet, you have until 11:59pm PST on Sunday, June 29th.

Have a fantastic week-end.

Until next time, go and create!
