!! Just Ordered !! (Tingtura Design)

I am always on the hunt for new images that are different and can capture the best of the imagination. When I purchase new images, I tend to search and search, with the idea of getting just the right image with just the right "artful" look.

Here is a link to the images that I have stumbled upon and am already in love! Just can't wait to get these in my hands and to begin inking them up. I spend months and months searching for the best image deserving of my hard earned money, and then once I order, I have no patience in waiting for them to arrive in the mailbox. ;)

Scheming Girl
Pig Standing
Tough Girl - NEW VERSION

Check them out!
Enjoy browsing the webshop listed above, and hopefully you find a few images to put in that ole' shopping basket. Let me know if you order something--I would love to know what YOU picked out.

More Inchies..................

This little mouse has a great imagination. The disguise appears to be working, that sleepy black cat, hasn't moved a muscle. :)
This little boy is a new generation of lava lamp lovers. The "lava" in the lamp is colored with glaze gel pens, and it really looks like "lava."

This is just a touch of golden royalty! Every girl wants to be a princess, right? Well, I am past the point of wanting to be a princess, now I am at the age of demanding the title of Queen.


This is a more artsy approach to inchies. This little guy poking his head in around the corner to show his support for always being yourself.

Just Had to Share!

This little inchie didn't photograph well, but the zebra is all decked out with a little touch of sparkle on his black stripes. The background is colored with prismas and gamsol and is a very light blue.
Who isn't trying to save a buck these days? This was an inspiration after a trip to the dollar store. Love that place!! If you didn't know EVERYTHING is a dollar. :)

This little retro guy is snapping a photo. Do you remember a camera that worked like that? Whew, that is retro! The smile stamp is a little stick image from Stamps By Judith.


This happy little lark is welcoming spring and the Easter season with a huge smile, and some BIG hair bling! Maybe, she is getting her picture taken, quite possibly by the handsome guy above.
Hope you enjoy-



All About Space




I am a really funny person about personal space. (just ask those who are closest to me.....hee-hee)
This little inchie is almost as overbearing as a person who can only interact with you if they are "inchies" from your face.
Blechy......
Anyway, since I love humor, thought that creating an inchie with some interesting perspective and giving a "shout out" or maybe I should say "snout out" to those of you who are also possessive about personal space.
Hope this little pink pig, who is all up in your face, brings a smile to your face this fine Friday--

Few Inchies






This little cowboy inchie is ready to greet you at the ranch with this handmade sign. Sort of a "wild west way", to say "we'll leave the light on for ya." So this little howdy goes out to all of you, my creative paper loving partners!



I'll end today's post with a sweet no fat, no calorie piece of cherry pie. May not gratify your tummy, but hope it serves as some eye candy. A tiny red cherry on the top of the pie is a delicate little button. :) The title , is decked out with glitter! Yummy!!

Underneath It All


Have you ever met anyone who looked so rough and tough and intimidating on the outside, and yet once you got to know their heart, they were actually full of love and laughter? Isn't that the best? I have recently experienced this exact situation, and thought that creating an inchie would help remind me that although the outside shell appears tough, give them a chance, because you just might be surprised at what's underneath. It is wonderful to find such a beautiful glittery red heart, and even better to find a beautiful new friend. :)

Splish-Splish..

Splish-Splish, I was takin' a bath,

Long about a Saturday night.

A rub-a-dub, just relaxin' in the tub;

Thinkin' everything was alright!


Saved this inchie to show you on Saturday, because I love that Splish-Splish song. There is something to be said for taking a few minutes out of the weekend to just relax.






This elephant is standing in a puddle of water that was coated with clear epoxy, and the flying drops of water are stickled with clear glitter. The arrow in the corner is just to remind the elephant that although, bathtime is fun, there is the purpose of cleaning up!

Enjoy your Splish-Splish Saturday!
