Hero Arts Scramble

I hosted a Scramble Challenge at Hero Arts today and the theme was Inchies! I made three cards for the challenge.

For this card I used papers that I had previously stamped but weren't up to snuff so I kept them in my scrap drawer waiting for the day when I could somehome use them. Well, today was that day! I punched out squares from those papers and added additional stamping and embossing in a variety of purple hues for a collage card.


I kept this card clean with some simple layered stamping.



And this card has a more distressed, aged look.

I found playing around with inchies to be very fun and addictive! I hope you give it a try!

I'm also entering these cards into the Simon Says Challenge , Anything Goes.


Wishing you an inky weekend!
