Happy Monday, Happy August!
I have an easy challenge today for you - and I think it's one that those of the Fan Club members who are trying to achieve Queen status should be able to combine with a DTGD challenge.
We are learning or revisiting the Retiform technique - it's great for an easy mailable card, and I think it's especially good for masculine cards.
Here is the tutorial in Resources:
Splitcoaststampers - Retiform Technique Tutorial by Beate Johns
** With reference to the tutorial, since I personally am not very good with a brayer, I always just sponge my colour on.
** The reference to Classic inks is to SU's range of dye-based inks. Any ink that you can apply with a sponge or brayer is suitable.
If you need a little inspiration or more visual cues, there is
a gallery linked to the tutorial
