Hi Marnie here! I know I'm late today I got a little caught up in School Shopping and forgot what day of the week it was...... EEEEEP I ammmmm soooo Sorry, it's that time of year! Today I have a little tutorial on making an inchie backgrounds card with Bombshell Stamps. Here are the supplies I started with. Stamps Mermaid Treasure and Hawiian Girl, I chose a summer theme. Distress Inks in Bright Colors along with their matching daubers. A 1" punch and white paper.
I inked up the paper the solid Pink and Blue will be for mats for my inchies.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_YU3JXJBDLIF1rITzFsL2hY0YkbVLmiBhxKbtZxoRZHgbI6Idii6ECm4Rqg8za9A8ZBssmRs7fnnvC6i63-RzWu8MDD90lYy3qnZq2WM86GPBb-VipKuTjSvbFYzJ9A_sjXbIKgqIrXY/s320/inchies2.JPG)
Then I stamped a ton of small images onto my rainbow sheet of paper with Archival Ink in random patterns,
Now punch 1" squares out of the stamped piece and cut 1 1/8" squares out of the blue and pink.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQ2YjBiv36Lowz5YhFLPIbaCTTq8tQFbnOxKsu4qGvhXUg2eBt3k_4t6biP7HbroZ80jnxIQTMmHSbt6f1kqgC54xDlDnJW2VYofA-Ic-pcAbQTmB_350jJ5rMY4zdkGNK5s8e-7I5nmA/s320/inchies4.JPG)
I
was first going to put these on a plain white card however I decided I
needed to pick up some more colors so I created the Yellow background
with ink and stencils using the same colors. So here I would like to
note, it is easier to line up your completed inchies we build an L on
the card. Then everything gets attached according to those lines.
This is the completed piece. Now to embellish.
I
have added the Mermaid colored with Copic then foam taped and some
coordinating Sequins as well as a bit of stickles. The Mermaid is
mounted on a small piece of Orange I colored with the same ink.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiC-clt0lcSVpq0SZSp08urpaKFX6lsg2yuERUNeXcT12pquR6pGGxEjU9sdrK9WTw-NFm-KO1ubWwuq5vMW-JPK10WC5Mi3UiDgMxyZyauYQnRMg_rOl5caXfaEXc3v5KReW5QJj62nkA/s320/inchies7.JPG)
Here is a close up of the layers.
