Hello Crafty Friends!!!
Welcome to CardMaker Magazine - Inchie Arts blog hop!!!
If you are not familiar with Art Squares , you can check it out here.
I'm using Inchie Arts art squares for the first time...this stuff is absolutely amazing.
They are precision cut matboard in variety of sizes...like 1", 2" , 3" & 4".
They are like mini canvases to me.
The theme for the hop is FALL.
I love fall colors!!!
I used 3" Art square for my first card...
As I mentioned its like a mini canvas.
I stamped the card base using Hero Arts leaves stamp with white ink.
Then created my focal art square.
I used Gelatos and layer of stamping and stenciling for the background. Then added few diecut leaves( cut using Lawn Fawn dies and glitter paper, vellum and balsa wood).
For my sentiment I used a flair.
I love how this card turned out!!
This card is for the following challenges...
City Crafter Challenge - Leaves.
Simon Says Stamp : Use Watercolors.
Great Impressions - - Autumnal Elegance.
Next card set is using 2" art squares...
These 2" art squares were perfect for my 4 x 4 thank you card set.
Clean and simple... just heat embossed the sentiment with white and various leaves with gold, then sponged some distress ink over it. Also added few white ink splatters.
All stamps are from Paper Smooches.
This card set will make a perfect gift!!
Here are the photo of individual cards...
This card set is for the following challenges...
CASology: Splatters.
Paper Smooches Sparks: Anything Goes.
My last card is using 1" art squares..also known as Inchies...
Really these art squares are super fun to work with!!!
For this card I heat embossed the background using Hero Arts stamp and white embossing powder.
Then I heat embossed few inchies with the same stamp and white EP.
Colored the Inchies with distress ink and waterbrush.
Adhere them randomly on the cardfront. Added some gold splatters ,gold enamel dots & rhinestones.
The sentiment is from Casual Fridays stamps.
This card is for the following challenges...
Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes.
AAA - Play with watercolors.
Stamping Sensations - Autumn Colors.

I loved your cards1
I loved your cards1
Oh my gosh I am so inspired. I like how you heat embossed a background pattern on the same colored card stock for two projects. Love the detail of the mixed media card 1. Especially the aspen leaves in three types of materials. Love the 4" card set. But my fave is the last card. I like how you repeated the subtle background pattern in bold fall colors.
Wow...thanks for all the inspiration!
Gorgeous cards! Awesome colors and textures! Fall is my favorite time of year... beautiful leaf designs too, so perfect for fall creating!
Your autumn inchies are gorgeous, and I love the embossed background. Thank you for sharing your lovely card with us at Stamping Sensations.
