Retiform Blog Hop

Can you believe it? Another post and creation from me..WOWZERS! So The Angel Company is sponsoring a Retiform Blog Hop this weekend. If you are like me you are thinking what is Retiform? Well it's a technique - one I might add that is pretty cool!

So my first attempt...not too bad but not what I was looking for


Couple things with this one. I used chalk ink instead of dye ink and although I LOVE the background (which is the Retiform Technique) I'm not lovin' the focal image. Like I said, not horrible but just not my usual thing.

So I decided to try again. This time I watched a video from Heather about the Retiform Technique (You can see it HERE). I like these results so much more...

It was really fun and I'm planning on doing this card for my FUNShop that is coming up. I think the girls will enjoy trying out this technique!

There are a few more hours to get your Retiform creation in. You can go HERE to see all the wonderful entries and to play along!

Thank for stopping by - I'll be back tomorrow (gasp...three posts in a row!!) with my calendar :D
