Inchies with brads!

I've used some brads that I've had for ages this week on these inchies. First of all, the challenge on the Inchybyinch blog was KEYS and I just happened to have this key brad that was the perfect size. Then the challenge by Small world of inchies was SUMMER and so I used these cute brads to make a 'his and her' theme.

WOW another award!

4th July Tag

This is my effort for the Tag You're It! challenge. The stripes stamp is by Anita's and the Movie Star by Paper Artsy.

Christmas in July...

... that's this month's theme by the The Artistic Stamper challenge! I have to say that it is difficult to think about Christmas at this time of year, but I have tried with this ATC. I used Glimmer Mist sprays for the background and the stamps are by Paper Artsy.

Black & white moo

This is my Moo for the black & white theme on the Make a Moo or Two blog. I have just bought this great stamp which is one of Paper Artsy's 'Tops and Tails' range and thought it would be perfect for this challenge (not to mention that I couldn't wait to use it!!).

Thank you inchy

Here is my inchy for the Inchybyinch challenge - the theme of Thank You. This week we have the added bonus of a plate of inchy stamps donated by Tanda Stamps for one lucky participant! So the theme is a thank you to Tanda... and I have used a Tanda flower stamp for this one!
