Inchies of Thanks

While I'm waiting for the remainding matchboxes to arrive... thought I'd show you the inchies I made for a recent Thankful Inchie swap. They look SOOOO much better in person.... but I glued a beautiful autumn napkin to watercolor paper and then I brushed melted beeswax on it and then I stamped it with rubberstamps that had leaves on them!!! Turned out pretty cool!

What a great idea. I never know what to do with inchies -- they're so small! But this would be a wonderful collection framed together.

beautiful! where did you get the beeswax, how does it work? Have you tried UTEE before? I want to buy some - but then I have get the whole melting pot thing and it all looks like a little more storage than I can handle.... I'm maxed out on space.... and I keep getting rid of stuff... that's scary isn't..... xo! amt

SO cool! So much technique slathered onto such a tiny canvas. :)

very good use of your 'waiting' time lady! These are wonderful and great things you've combined to create them too!
