This is my first INCHIE set! It was a work of love to celebrate the long and wonderful friendship with Debbie Moon! We've been friends for 50 years!
I used Burlap Paper from DCWV mounted to chipboard for the base. I love all the texture. The flowers were made by wrapping the cord/thread several times around a very long needle and glued in place using Glossy Accents. The green vine weaving throughout to connect each inchie represents the special bond that we share. The butterfly is a Martha Stewart punch using glitter paper.
Thanks for looking! Feel free to comment!
