I needed to make some postage stamp inchies, and I found enough patriotic postage stamps that I decided to use them for my 4th of July inchie mingle, too. Here are my patriotic ones:
You have to love postage stamps - they are little works of art in themselves. To make them my art, I just put them on a gold leafed background and added a touch of bling. The other stamps were harder, because not everything looks good with a star on it.
The stamps are so big that in order to see any background, I had to offset them. I thought adding an alpha gave them some cohesiveness. Finally, I had one stamp left. This inchie is for a special friend:
