Description:

Inchies are mini paper art for most of us. I decided to test some pop-up art, like the 7 flowers pop-up in the picture and the word pop ups, with an inchie or 5. Based on my experience and resulting fun I challenge you to take the mini art to a new mini level!

Your swap task is to make 2 inchies for 1 partner. Those inchies must have some kind of surprise unveiling as part of the art. Use your imagination. A great blog with some card art for pop ups is http://extremecards.blogspot.com.

Make a pop-up, like the sample pic. Make an accordion inchie, with a surprise photo or message. Create an origami inchie that opens up with a pull. Make a door with a little surprise behind it... Sender's Choice of how the surprise is presented. Challenge yourself to this task, even if you have never done any kind of pop-up or 3D paper art! Just remember, it has to be an inchie when closed up, 1 X 1 inch in size.

Make your inchie with care, with a sturdy backing. Even before the surprise have it be artistic in form. Color, medium, and surprise is totally up to you.

Newbies are welcome, but if you have any questions be sure to ask. Also, for those not new, please no unexplained 3's or 1's. I reserve the right to ban anyone with unexplained bad ratings. If there are issues, please message me, i will angel away if needed!
