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!

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.
ReplyDeleteI never noticed the bottom row was smaller until you said so! Lol! Love the simplicity of this card, Jessi!
ReplyDeleteI didn't notice either. But I like it that way. Looks great.
ReplyDeletewhat 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
ReplyDeleteGreat 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.

What a perfect image for your inchie mosaic design ... so glad you joined our fun at Jingle Belles.
ReplyDeleteAgreed - a tropical beach sounds fantastic right now lol. Your card is beautiful - such a gorgeous image and I do love it stamped in red.
ReplyDeleteI love the grid!
ReplyDeleteThis 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
