I didn't know what I was taking on when I took up the challenge of creating little works of art 1" x 1" - I thought ATCs were hard enough at 3.5" x 2.5".
All except the dried flowers have been embossed so they look like little shiny tiles - but it does not show up in the scan very well.
And these are magnified far bigger than the size they actually are!
One of my favourite flowers - Pink Echinacea
Oriental Style
Gazania
Daisy
Fuschias
Red Dahlia - where the light patches are,is where there is no embossing - looks fine though - but funny in this scan
Marigold centre - again shiny and embossed
Yellow echinacea - embossed and shiny - the bee does not look so prominent in real life - these are only 1" x 1" so very much enlarged on here.
Daisy - embossed and shiny
Morning Glory - Embossed and shiny
Layers of cut up poppy leaves on painted paper.
Stained glass - stamped and coloured, the bits drawn on it, the embossed all over
This is a tiny stem of Alchemilla Mollis which I have coloured red with chalks, mounted it on 'angels hair' paper then painted over it in gold

How on earth do you make something so beautiful but so small!! Is there a competition or something yo can enter..these must be winners surely.
Lovely inchies Lottie.Nice and bright, just like flowers should be.
Thank you both.
Ruth - these are going into a swap on a forum. I send them off and later get the same number back from different artists.
Late June I will get them so will post them on here.
OH LOTTIE!!!!!
Breathtaking ART my dear!!!
these are just DEVINE!!!!
Thank you - I photographed them seperately because side by side they all clash. But as they are going to be distributed rather than in one set - it doesn't matter.
