Description:

You've gotta love inchies, itty-bitty pieces of art that they are. Γ’β„’Β₯ Inchies are 1" squares, and should be somewhat sturdy - heavy cardstock, chipboard, whatever. Check out Flickr for some gorgeous inspiration!

For this series of swaps, you will have two (2) partners and send each partner six (6) inchies - one dozen (12) inchies total. You can make each set the same, or make completely different inchies for each partner. Theme and medium are up to you - sender's choice!

No need to write any info on the back unless you're so inclined.

I suggest lightly securing your inchies to an ATC-sized cardstock blank or something, just to keep them intact in transit instead of bouncing around loose and risking damage. (I tape mine to an ATC blank with a looped-over strip of masking tape on the back and put them in an ATC sleeve. Easy to remove, but strong enough to keep them on the card until they arrive.) Here are some great ideas for securing your inchies for mailing!

My swaps are open to members in good standing - no unexplained ones or threes, please. Newbies are welcome as well, provided profiles are well-filled. All profiles will be checked before partners are assigned, and I will ban if need be.

PLEASE remember to include your name and the swap name with your inchies, so your partner knows who to thank and rate! Don't forget to rate your partner!

Any questions or concerns - please do PM me or comment here! Γ’β„’Β₯

Here's another idea for mailing inchies

and how to make it

I mail these in notecards, and they hold a dozen inchies. You can make them different sizes for different numbers of inchies, be creative!

Fixed my link, but thank you! I love that matchbook idea - will have to try making one tomorrow! :D

It says that newbies are allowed to join this swap but when I go to sign up it says I can't because I don't fit the rating requirements. What to do?

Marryth 02/10/2011 #

Fixed it, @emayees - sorry about that! You should be able to sign up now.
