Description:

For this swap, you'll send 5 inchies to 1 partner. All 5 inchies should incorporate part of a book page(s). It should be recognizable that you've used a book page, but don't be afraid to get creative. Recipe book, novel, music sheet song book, dictionary, poem book pages, any book page with text are all acceptable. Magazine and newspaper text are fine if the paper isn't too thin.

What is an inchie?
If you're new to inchies, don't worry! They're easy to try and make.
It's a piece of art that is exactly 1 inch x 1 inch wide (2.54 cm x 2.54 cm) on sturdy backing.

Not allowed
These will not fulfill swap requirements:

  • putting a book page and nothing else
  • using an image and no text from a picture book
  • using printer paper as the only backing surface for your inchies

I like using clean food packaging and cutting it up to use as backing.
