'Africa' Inchies



I am running an inchie swap over on UK Stampers Forum which is a Continents swap.  There are six swaps - one per Continent each month for 6 months.  There are nine inchies per swap culminating in a challenge to use all the 54 swapped inchies in a craft creation. The first Continent is Africa and these are my swaps.

I used a stamp from Tanda (Advert Plate 2) which has a tiger image as part of the stamp.  This was first stamped 9 times with Archival black ink on stout white card.  I then used a 1 inch square punch to selectively punch out the tiger.  Once done I coloured the image with Copics.  The borders were dotted with fine gold pen and red Copic.

Once done I used a Sakura clear glaze pen to highlight just the tigers.  Once dry each inchie was edged in blue iris chalk ink.
