Description:

Remember using fingerprints to create little doodles in Elementary school art class? Let's do that on inchies!

Using an inkpad, make a fingerprint on an inchie, any finger. Then create something around it. It can be as simple as drawing a stick figure with a black pen or as elaborate as you can imagine. They should be original works of art, drawn or otherwise created with your own two hands (ie, not digital prints). What do your fingerprints look like to you?

Send 3 fingerprint inchies to 2 partners and end up with half a dozen different fingerprint characters (or other designs).

And just in case I didn't explain what I was thinking so that someone else can understand it, this link has some examples of what you can create with your fingerprints (including how-to instructions, but I trust you to be original and not "cheat").

  • I reserve the right to ban anyone from the swap if I feel they will not be able to fulfill the swap.

  • No flakers! If you see a known flaker sign up, please let me know and I will contact them. I'd rather lose a flaker than a bunch of good swappers.

Arrrgghhhh what a brilliant swap! So fun!! Never seen this kind of thing before and can't wait to do mine! LOL!

I'm not trying to be a stickler, just helpful, but the partner number just says 1 and the description says 2 partners.

Either way, sounds fun!

Well, since I fingerprint people, I have to join this one. Also, please make it two partners, I love seeing what different people are doing.

Oops! Thanks for pointing that out, guys! It should be two partners. I'll go edit that now.

Is there any way we all can take pictures and show each other what we created? I would love to see some of people's creations for this.???

Ok for these should there be no embellishments? just the print and the drawing around it? I hope I'm making myself understood.

ellie1200 04/18/2010 #

Embellishments are fine! As much or as little as you want, just start with a fingerprint and go from there.

ellie1200 04/18/2010 #

And I'd love to see everyone's creations too!! Maybe we can make a new thread in the group to post pictures in.

I started a Post on the forums of our Inchie Love group. I also posted a link to see my pictures of my inchies that I made for this swap. If you want to share your pics please go to the forums and look for the "Fingerprint Inchie" Post. ... I would love to see everyone elses creations.

Thanks for answering my question! I'll remember to scan mine before I send. No camera:(
