Description:

I just participated in a sticker swap and got some super cool Kawaii stickers - I LOVE THEM! So, I want to use some in my artwork - and get completed artwork along the same theme.

You might be asking: "What in the world is an inchie?"... 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 layers of cardstock, mounted to chip board, game pieces, tiles, etc.

For this swap, make 5 inchies for each of 3 partners - that's a total of 15 Kawaii themed inchies.

A little clarification - you don't have to use stickers on your inchies. I only mentioned stickers because that it what inspired my desire to create this swap. And even though I use stickers in a lot of my artwork, please no "sticker slapping" - make inchies that you would be thrilled to receive.

Please let me know if you have any questions at all - thanks!

lol, i kinda "just discovered inchies". i've known what they were for a while but the idea of making 1 inch art was impossible to me. my first swap was for a kawaii group and now i'm kinda hooked on making them. it's good to see more people out there like kawaii inchies because i want to swap them all the time now.

@cozy86 - Nope, no photos of Kawaii inchies yet, as I haven't made mine yet. If you Google "inchies" you can get a good idea of inchies in general

Everyone - I have just started collecting Kawaii stuff so if any of you want to do any personal swapping let me know. I am interested in Kawaii memo sheets, stickers, etc. I can trade either finished artwork (in your choice of theme) or I have stickers in almost every category you can come up with. I also have some collage sheet images. PM me if you are interested. Thanks!
