Cabin fever...aren't all of us in the northern hemisphere starting to suffer from it about now?? I know I am. So, at Shopping our Stash this week, we want you to create something outdoorsy! (wouldn't a tropical beach be really nice right now?)
I struggled with this for a bit, until I got the bright idea to combine it with the current inchie/twinchie challenge at Jingle Belles, and then BOOM! I found this previously uninked stamp while I was looking for some ribbon I KNEW I HAD SOMEWHERE, and ta-da:
Supplies: image stamp from Heartfelt Creations; sentiment from Stampendous; Barn Door distress ink; black Sharpie
I failed to measure a precise border when trimming the stamped image, so I have two rows of inchies and one row of "three quarter inchies", lol! I edged each piece with black Sharpie to have them stand out more against the white background. A pretty simple card in the end but I like it!
Come & play along with this challenge until next Monday, February 3rd - hop on by & leave the rest of my teamies some love!
xoxo,
Jessi

Great card, love the window effect. since you mentioned it, I had to go back and look, I never noticed they were not all the same size. I love the red and white. super job.
I never noticed the bottom row was smaller until you said so! Lol! Love the simplicity of this card, Jessi!
I didn't notice either. But I like it that way. Looks great.
what a *BRILLIANT* take on both the "cabin fever" theme at SOS & the inchies at JINGLE BELLES! love, love, looooooooooove the red-inked image, it's PERFECT for this! <3
Great design and wonderful card!!! Love all those inchies - and yes, I'm ready for spring but still love to see all the winter type cards.

Love the red and white with a touch of black! I didn't notice the inchies weren't the same size either!!
A great way to use this stamp! I hadn't even noticed the bottom row was different! *wipes glasses*
Oh my goodness--perfect way to use that stamp, Jessi--love it!
Love the (mostly) inchie effect you used with this stamp! ;)
Oh my!! This is gorgeous!! I love the little squares matted on black!!!
This is a really neat technique!!
Didn't even notice the size difference until you mentioned it!
Jessi! I love the design! You are so stinkin' cool!
Love love love this!! Love the red. Love the hint of black! Super Super!!

What a perfect image for your inchie mosaic design ... so glad you joined our fun at Jingle Belles.
Agreed - a tropical beach sounds fantastic right now lol. Your card is beautiful - such a gorgeous image and I do love it stamped in red.
I love the grid!
This is such a great use of a stamp, and the inchies (and almost inchies) add such fun interest to your card! Nicely done! As for cabin fever....I'm beginning to feel like a hibernating bear! lol
