Tips, Tricks, and Techniques with weird names. Just say'n.

That's what I have for you today! It's Tips and Tricks Thursday over at Skipping Stones Design and I am the lucky Stamp Tramp who gets to share with you this time around! I pulled out a super fun technique from back in the day! I actually learned this one from my Close To My Heart upline back when I was a consultant! Susan was the MASTER of Retiform and could do beautiful things with it! And now, I am excited to share it with you today because I know you can do ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS things using this great technique!

Retiform Card


This is my completed card! Isn't it such a pretty technique? I used the Heartsong set from Skipping Stones! For the full tutorial you will want to hop on over to Skipping Stones sometime today to check it out! I really would love to see some peeps try it out, because each person makes this fun technique their own and the results are super fun! As for the name...Retiform...I have no idea where that came from, but that's what I learned it as, so I'm stick'n to it. Just say'n.
