Single colour - primarily rainbow colours, but any really, inc black and white
The vegetable garden
Firefly / serenity

Hi, I’m Nilmerg, I’m from Tumut, NSW, Australia. I'm currently trying to collect blue inchies for my blue inchie frame project, thanks to the last round of OIS, it's about 2/3rds done. I'd love it if you would select one (or more or a combination) of the below themes AND make the inchies blue. They only need to be a minimum of say 1/4 to 1/3rd  blue - think blue background with an image stuck on or something blue on a different colour background. I’d prefer not to receive any adult themes, religion or politics. I have no allergies. I don't mind my inchies being a bit 3D.

I'd love it if you could add your username to the back of the inchie too please.

My themes are:
1. Quilling (&blue)
2. Quilting (&blue)
3 crochet / tatting or knitting (&blue)
4. crossstitch or embroidery (&blue)
5. Inchie TM patches (&blue)
6. Little houses (&blue)
7. paining over text (&blue)
8. vintage pictures and words (&blue)
9. non paper (&blue)
10. fabric (&blue)
11. Artists choice (&blue)

Or inspired by anything on my inchie inspiration board http://pinterest.com/nilmerg/inchie-inspiration/
(I added some more ideas to here today )

Hey Nilmerg! I'm going Artist's choice I'll experiment with fabric and check out your Pinterest  & Blue

Hi I'm Julie from Tasmania Australia. 
I don't mind mostly what I receive as long as it relates to my themes, I'm going to reuse most of the themes I had from the last OIS, because I still love them.  What I would like to stipulate is simply I'm doing a rainbow inchie piece, so I would like the inchies in mainly one colour, and lots of different colours would be great   For example you made me a nature inchie, of the ocean it might be marine blue or turquoise green as the main colour, or yellow for a beach one but the other bits could be other colours.  I like bold colours like rainbow brite.  It's all good 

My themes:
1. Nature (like flowers, fields, mountains, seascapes)
2. Neil Gaiman characters ie Morpheus, Delirium, Shadow, Coraline
3. gothic
4. pagan
5  anime
6. Artist's Choice (I liked that idea from the last one)
7. supernatural creatures (monsters, vamps, werewolves, mermaids, fairies) cute is fine, just not pastel perhaps
8. animals

Hi!  I'm Kim, from Louisiana, originally from PA.  I'm adverse to anything political or propaganda-ish.  I don't mind artful nudity or a bit of gore (since I'm a total sucker for horror movies), but my style is mostly whimsical, bright, colorful, modern, happy stuff.  Bordering on cute.  I like dimensional elements, but I do plan on framing, so nothing thicker than a tile would be great as far as how you make mine, please.
A combination of my themes is great.  If you would like to do 1 of 8 different ones, just claim me for the one that sparks your interest initially.  Translate my themes however you would like.

Life is a bit calmer now so I can make my first claim!  I claim Quasior for a surprise combination of themes.  (Mainly because I have a bunch of ideas and just can’t pick right now)! 

Hi!  I’m Martha from outside Charlottesville, Virginia.  I am “crafty” but not really an “artist” so I am always awed by those with artistic talent.  I am fine with 3D or multiple inchies that make up one picture and any combination of my themes is great.  I prefer no politics but anything else is okay.  I’m very easy to please and will love whatever you create for me! 

My themes:
*frogs
*thistles
*Celtic  themes
*Greenman
*fairies and mermaids (not too cartoony, though)
*foxes
*purple
*Tim Burton
*Halloween
*the 80’s (fashion, cartoons, music – anything!)
*Autumn
*Wizard of Oz
*Alice in Wonderland
*Day of the Dead
*Harry Potter
*Labyrinth (the movie)
*The Neverending Story
*books/reading
*sewing/other crafts (especially quilting)
*mushrooms/gnomes/owls/snails
*Artist’s Choice

Happy Crafting!
~Martha
