Thank You

Hello -


Tonight I worked on a card for CAS Mix Up Challenge.  The theme is:


Inchies are inch squares.  


For my card I stamped a Paper Smooches image from Rosie Posey, in a pale ink and did a no-line coloring effect with copic markers.  I then measured and cut out a 2 inch by three inch panel from that image.  I also cut a 2.25 x3.25 inch panel in black.  The colored panel was then cut into 6 one by one inch pieces.  I put adhesive on the back of all six, and then placed foam tape under three of the inchies.

I then placed them onto the black panel starting with the upper left which was on foam tape, next I placed the lower left flat to the panel. The middle two were placed opposite height wise from the two on the left. The two on the right were placed the same heights as the two on the left.  The entire black panel was also foam mounted to the white card base with a simple stamped and heat embossed sentiment in black.
