Description:
I saw a lot of interest in an anatomy swap in the forums so thought I would host a one! Make 5 inchies for each of 2 partners - that's a total of 10 anatomy inchies. Make them as dark as you want - or as light as you want - this is totally up to you guys! Take the theme and run with it! Inchies are tiny works of art that measure 1" by 1". These can be made from any medium (paper, fabric, wood, plastic), by any technique (collage, watercolor, acrylic, pencil). You want your inchies to be sturdy - either two layers of cardstock, mounted to chip board, etc. Even though I use stickers in a lot of my artwork I must insist on no "sticker slapping" - make inchies that you would love to receive! Please let me know if you have any questions at all - thanks!

I've never made an inchie before. Considering my freakish obsession with anatomy, however, I'm really intrigued by this swap. Are inchie virgins (hahahah, can you imagine a guy saying that?) welcome?

This is an awesome way to pop my Inchie cherry. I will sign up closer to the swap deadline. I need to get some of the stuff on my dashboard out the door first. :-)

Swap-bot Newbies, "The Darkness" Newbies, Inchie Newbies, Anatomy Newibes are more than welcome! We were all newbies in every single thing in life at one time! :)

Ooh! I hope this becomes a series--Inchies, then ATCs, then matchboxes, then handmade postcards, then whatever else people can think of ^_^

I've never made inchies either. This sounds like a cool way to get into making them. So each inchie has the theme on it? Are they each different?

@Saristole the theme for the inchies is anatomy, each inchie must be based on that. You shouldn't make all your inchies identical but they can be similar, ie. perhaps a heart on one, a lung on another! Enjoy!

Thanks @doublesided for clearing that up!

My inches are made - they all have skeleton transparencies on them - but none of them are identical. Also, all the backgrounds are different colors.
