A challenge with a difference this week - As its holiday time and lots of us are probably going away I chose Travel for this week's inchy - and, as an extra challenge if you have time, I'd like to see your inchies actually put on a card or other project.

INCHY CHALLENGE #5 - POSTAGE ART

I know - apologies that Challenge no 5 is a bit early - but I'm away from my computer until Tuesday so I'd rather have it early than late.

WHAT TO DO WITH INCHIES?

I've been asked "what do we do with inchies once we've made them" - There are lots of ideas out there for what to do with your inchies - make them into cards, put them on tags, group them and put them in a photo frame or shadow box - make jewellery out of them.........

Here's just two examples:

These inchies were done as part of a Cherry Pie Art Stamp yahoo group swap - I hope the girls don't mind me using them and showing them.
These inchies were part of Love swap on Auntys forum. Thanks to Deb and Diane - I've used your inchies Ladies, as well as one of my own.

WOW - WE'VE BEEN FEATURED

As I was looking through Rosie's fab inchies she mentioned we'd been featured on paperfriendly blog - What a great surprise.

DO YOU LIKE INCHIES NEW HEADER?

Isn't it fabulous - thanks to my good friend Jo at www.siggi-shop.blogspot.com who makes banners and headers. Thanks Jo
