Default DTP

What is DTP? I have seen that listed as a technique on several cards and do not know what it is or how to do it. Thanks.

DTP refers to a technique called Direct To Paper. Its a distressing technique where you swipe your inkpad directly onto the paper. Different inks leave different effects. The classic ink dries quickly and the color that you swipe will remain that color. The pigment and chalk inks dry more slowly and you can blend different colors. Its a very hot trend right now. It sort of leaves your card with a shabby chic kind of feel. Try it! Its fun and easy!

BTW, noticed this is your first post. Welcome aboard!
