Inchie Nest

Whew, I sure have had a busy week. Last Tuesday I had to have a cataract removed from my right eye. The procedure was easy peasy and I am amazed at how much better I can see with that little "cloud" gone. Today I went for my final "post-op" visit and have ordered my new glasses, I can't wait for them to get here and have both eyes working together again. Right now, the left is near sighted and the right is far sighted. I have to tell people that I am not winking at them........really, really, I'm not.
The card I am sharing with you today was created for Lisa's very first Inchie Sketch challenge on the Inchie INKlings blog. I love me some inchies and knew I wanted to play along. I used a pretty light blue shimmer cardstock for my base card and then added some pretty papers from Memory Box. I used a white inchie square and colored the edges with Copic E29, I stamped the Lockhart IB Nest with Memento Rich Cocoa ink and colored with Copic E35, E37 and E29. The eggs were colored with Copic B00 and then a little Glossy Accents and glitter were added. I punched the nest panel with a 7/8" square punch and added to the inchie square. The card was finished off with a MS Deep Edger punch and some Amuse ribbon. Need some Inchies? Need the nest? You can find them here.


ETA:  Woo Hoo!  I just read this Inchie Inklings post and found out that my card was this weeks winner!  If you want a chance to win, head over there now for this weeks sketch.
