TOTALLY TEEEEEERIFFIC TOOOOSDAY

Yes, I know I haven’t been so up to date with it as life got in the way but I am trying to get this going again! LOL… So have I mentioned that I am ADDICTED to inchies????  I mean TOTALLY TERRIFICALLY addicted.. COMPLETELY and UTTERLY addicted.. HOPELESSLY.. well you get da PICTURE.

Here are our inchies and I think I am gonna start INCHIE toosdays..LOL (cuz I am addicted.. remembah?).. Inchies are little teeny tiny weeny winy 1″ squares of the most wonderful quality museum matboard.. it welcomes any medium.. copic, mineral spirits, watercolor.. just OUTSTANDING…  I have also purchased some binders to go with these, magnet backs,, etc.. you can trade them!!

Here is my card using 9 inchies on a 5″*5″ card.   On some of them I used the new COSMO CRICKET BOYFRIEND collection papers (LOVE THEM).  I used my 1″ square punch (so handy to cover the inchies) and if you would like to layer them.. you can use the 1.25″ square punch.. PHENOM!!!  I also used my new favorite tool (not such a new tool tho).. the colorbox stylus handles and oval tip foam pads.. and gently patted it into the COLORBOX Q chalk inkpads.  They are sooo gorgeous and graduated colors to boot!.. Basically I own many of the stylus’.. each one is double sided so I use a tip on each side and use it for each color (or color family) and it’s so easy!  So I dip my foam into the ink.. I tap some off on a scrap sheet of paper.. and then I start rubbing it on the corners of the inchies in a smooth circular LIGHTHANDED motion.. I didn’t feel like coloring.. and LOOK! I didn’t have to!  You still get a wonderful effect and it’s sooo verrrry easy!  but most importantly.. which stamps did I use! LOL..  I used the KETTO MANLY SET (for ketto’s clothesline).. I just love THAT WHOLE COLLECTION! and they are perfect for the inchies and of course my metallic red nailheads in the upper corner!  and VOILA!

Hope you have a PHENOM TOOOOOSDAY.. actually a TEEERIIIFFFIC TOOOSDAY sistahs
