February Inches in...

Amanda · #1 02-01-2012, 04:39 PM

Have I got a doozie for you this month!!!
We are going to try something I am sure most of you have never done!
We started with a journal cover, then pages, then an ATC. This month we scale down even further with "Inchies"...

These are just what they sound like: tiny little pieces of art that are one inch square. Typically they are displayed in sets of 3 like these;

They can be created from most anything- paper, wood, tree bark, plastic, cardboard (-above),
fabric, the list is endless. These below were made from clay.

BUT, some people who are great enthusiasts make a page full!

You could choose your favorite layouts and shrink them to 1"x1". At 300dpi that would be 300x300.

Submit your 3 inchies in the gallery in the Artful Scrapping Outside the Box gallery.
Bring the image and link back here.

A winner will be chosen AND featured in the ARTchaeology Of the Soul workshop and blog along
with receiving a GC from my shoppe.

TRY IT! You will like it.

The sheet of inchies was created by my friend Georgina- aka Phizzychick.

Are we supposed to submit each image in 300 ppi or 72 ppi for the gallery? Should we submit all three at once in one layout or 3 separate ones? If it's 3 at a time, should we put our inchies on a background as you have done?

Thanks for keeping me on my toes- I am sleepy from being up so late last night.

Make 3 and mount (paper) or place (digital) them on a background and submit as a unit .

Just checking that I read this right
so does this count??

wondering if you could use parts of layouts?
i think i will have a play around
this is what I made

ps neither of these are for the challenge just getting sidetracked will put my thinking cap on to create something specifically for the challenge
