Christmas Inchie Cards

Before the holiday season is over, I wanted to share a couple of inchie cards I made using some $1 stamps from Inkadinkadoo. 

To create the inchies, I washed scraps of watercolor paper with yellow and blue ink, then added a thin layer of Shimmer paint (SU).  Once the scraps were thoroughly dry, I stamped the images with Versafine black ink. 

I punched out the yellow inchies with a 1" square punch, trimmed off 1/8" with my xacto knife, then mounted them onto 1" squares of Crushed Curry c/stock.  The blue ones were merely punched out with the 1" square punch and mounted directly onto a rectangle of black c/stock.

The bases are my favorite Fabriano watercolor cards and a few rhinestones and a little ribbon finished them off.
