What is an Inchie? *now with Rinchies, Twinchies, Rolo & Moo!*

[_pistola]

I've always been just a little bit afraid to try inchies.  I just know I'll get out of control.  I think it's about time to bite the bullet, though.

  I am happy to state I have found my new *cough* addiction *cough* I mean hobby. Being a paper crafter I'm always looking for something to do with the little pieces of paper, stuff, etc that I really don't want to toss.
No, I'm not hoarding the stuff *looks around for prying eyes*! Really...I'm um...going to make something with them.
Thank you for the new found little sunshiney goodness called inchies.

I have loved inchies for quite some time now and I fully agree that they are very addictive! Thanks for all this great info and for adding the newest crazes of the rinchies and twinchies to the list as well!

Someone commented that they liked base images from dust jackets, etc., so I wanted to share my trick.

I cut out a slightly-larger-than-an-inch square from the center of a business card.  That lets me frame out an inchie-sized piece from a larger piece and helps me get the right background.  I like the bigger than an inch size to work with because that gives me some wiggle room if I need it.

maybe it is bad karma for other artist's inchies but one can always back inchies with magnet paper and put on them on fridges? at least that is what I have in my mind for the inchies I am planning to make..

Great Post! I was feeling very uninspired today and kind of restless, but looking through all of links to those projects definitely got my creative spark going!

I love this idea!!! They are so cute. So is an inchie a square-inch little piece of art of any kind? do you do just drawings, or could they be anything as long as they're teensy?

As long as they're one inch by one inch, anything goes!
