NEW TO THE BLOCK!

HELLO KRAFTY KUSTOMERS!


We have some great news! Inkadinkado has now come out with a line of clear stamps called "Inchies"! You might ask yourself, "What the heck is an inchie and why is it so amazing??!" Well folks, I am here to tell you that they are amazing because they come in a full set of small 1x1 inch detailed stamps that have become all the rage! Like most clear stamp sets, they are themed and are well matched so when you go to make a special card or scrapbook page, you have everything you need for that scene right there in one set. Each set normally comes with 12 small 1x1 stamps, a larger stamp that can be used as a background and small stamps that can be used as accents for anything your heart desires! The amazing thing with these stamp sets are that they give you the mosaic look (which is becoming more and more popular) without the mess and work of making you do it yourself! While these are Inkadinkado stamps, they can be stored with your new Stampendous clear filing system right along with all the other clear stamps, clear blocks and wood-mounted stamps in your collection!


In case you were wondering, the picture to the left is what the inchies look like in their original packaging. While they don't look like much when you first get them, they can do wonders! By matching them up in unique order, you can create many different cards and variations!! You don't have to stick with the mosaic theme, but can use the large block and one of the smaller blocks to make a matted effect.

By not only using different color inks for each stamp, you can also use COPIC MARKERS to color in and shade the backgrounds of each stamp like the very last sample.






This is a unique way of using the blocks and gives the card a watercolor look but each individual block is different. Each set comes with a variety of words that you can mix and match with other sets to make your very own card! Adding embellishments like the rhinestone on the card add a little extra! With these sets, you don't need anything else other than the set to make your card or scrapbook page magical!
