I got some new inchies from geekgirl1000100. 

She claimed me for googley eyed animals, and I love the ones she made, but all the others she sent as well were just as admired.  I love the different paper used in the background.  The fox is great!  Couldn't have been cuter even with googley eyes.    

The circus tent, so cute!  And lots of others from my favorite themes (Dr. Suess, Alice, even a Princess Bride inchie   )

Thanks so much!

The last 3 sets of inchies with cats are wonderful.  And the penguins before that are adorable.

I recieved some amazing inchies from Yoopidou today.....

The first theme was non-paper and WOW they are just amazing. I could never have imagined making these never mind actually managing it. I scanned them, but this photo doesn't do them justice, they are amazingly 3D:



From top left: Girl on a tree swing, birds on a wire, sheep, music
Bottom row from left: Butterfly escaping cage, Moving beads, celtic heart knot and felted cow

And if that was not enough, I also recieved a second set from Yoopidou. This time on the theme 'little houses'. She amazingly took me on a world tour of traditional houses and again they are just wonderful. Thank you.



And I recieved 12 of these - BONUS 

Thank you so much Yoopidou, your inchies are simply amazing.

Wow! Since I am obsessed with Big Bang Theory, I LOVE the Bazinga one! And, the Hello Kitty one!

Those non-paper ichies are SO AMAZINGLY AWESOME! And, the little houses are so darn cute! I love the log cabin ones the best!

I still have my outstanding claims in transit, so I can't claim....and, I think I've claimed enough this round...so even if some arrive before claiming ends, I think I'm done until next round. Thanks so much Nilmerg for organizing yet another great swap!

[javaannie]

I absolutely adore the little houses by yoopidou. I have inchies in transit from her and now I'm even more excited to receive it! I may need to add little houses to my themes for next round.

[yoopidou]

I'm so happy you like them, although they are not perfect, and I noticed the sheep's background lost its color.

I really enjoyed making them although the 3D turned out to be more of a challenge than I thought. I learned many lessons: putting hot glue on plastic makes it shrink, ink on moss takes a very long time to dry and should not be handled, black wire will lose it's color if bended with non flat tools, the felting needle likes to stick in fingers, wait until the paint is really dry or the beads will stick to it.

The houses were just plain fun. That was a very inspiring theme.

And now, I can claim again, yeah!
