New grid cards with alcohol inks

I had a request for these cards. A lady said that she would buy whatever I made, so I am in the process of creating. I really love dissecting a stamp after stamping and embossing it and then arranging it in a grid.



Of course it can be done in so many different ways, with different inks, colors, techniques. Actually the sky's the limit with inchie cards! Thats what I like about them.

I discovered a new blog - Inchie Inklings

Via Donna Mikasa, who wrote to me about an inchie blog she found, I can now make inchie cards according to some great sketches. The blog is here and is called Inchie INKlings. Love her work.

Using up the scraps for a little grid

I was tempted yesterday to throw away my littlest scrap basket - I feel the obsession to have to use everything and it can get very tiring...



The need to use up some scraps was why I created this, but it doesn't make any difference to the scraps that are still waiting!

I gave this flower a grid background.

Using up the scraps.. again

Another card, left unfinished, now finished. In February my sister and her friend are coming over to visit me - we all love crafting, so we will definitely be sharing card ideas!



I love using these colors together.

Scraps

Finally finishing off some cards I had unfinished in a basket.

Red and pink scraps

An enjoyable way to finish up the red scraps!

Green scraps

A very enjoyable way to use up scraps!

Using up some scraps

Such a pity not to use up the small scraps, especially if it's basic grey!

So enjoyed using scraps in this way too with stitching.
