In this swap we’re getting even smaller with our art! You’ll be creating 3 ATCs with a mosaic of six Inchies on each card. If you’ve never heard of an Inchie before, it’s a piece of art that’s 1”x1”. You can pick any theme you’d like as long as it follows the 2 Inchies across, 3 Inchies down format and it creates a cohesive piece. Please no white backgrounds, that’s just boring! I’ll be posting an example I’ve made at the bottom of this post if you’re still a bit confused. There’s also lots of inspiration to be found if you do a quick search for “Inchie Collage” on Pinterest.

I’m limiting the swap to 20 participants, so if this sounds like a fun challenge to you, make sure to post in the thread to sign up!


SWAP REQUIREMENTS:
  • The format of your piece should be 2 Inchies across, 3 Inchies down.
  • You can use any medium of your choosing, as long as you follow the basic format, but please make sure your art isn’t too flimsy or too bulky so it can transit well through the mail! Cards should be 2.5" x 3.5". Inchies should be 1”x1”.
  • Please include your username, the swap name, your location, and the date on the back of each card.
  • DUE DATE: August 22nd is the last day I will accept cards. I will swap that night and mail the returns the following Monday.
  • Post in the thread when you’re sending your cards and I’ll post in the thread and give feedback when they arrive!
  • When you receive your returns, don't forget to give Feedback points to your host and Reputation comments to your fellow artists!
  • A hostess card is not required, but if you decide to send me one, it will absolutely be treasured. <3

MAILING GUIDELINES:
  • Each card should be sent in an individual clear protective sleeve.
  • When you are ready to mail your cards please send me a DM for my address. If you already have my address from a previous swap, it hasn’t changed.
  • Please include a large address label or large piece of paper with your address, and a forever stamp. I can provide a return envelope, but if you are willing to send one it will be appreciated.
  • International participants: Please include an international stamp if possible. I have some international stamps if you are unable to find one.
  • Pack your cards carefully. Securing them with washi tape and some thin cardboard will help your cards arrive in good condition!

Thanks for posting the examples. So the six inchies mounted on an ATC size should be of the same subject (theme) in similar colors. If I am correct, please sign me up.
 
I haven't tried that as a separate ATC art form yet but your cards look great! I checked out a few examples on Pinterest and I'm already hooked 😂
One theme in 6 miniatures—a lovely variation.
So I'd love to join in! Please sign me up, thank you for this idea and inspiration!
