I LOVE THIS OLD TECHNIQUE AND EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE I DRAG IT OUT- RETIFORM. ALSO LOVE THIS STAMP SET WHICH IS ONE THAT IS NOT RETIRING - SO I ALWAYS PICK ONE I REALLY LIKE THAT DID NOT RETIRE AS I LAMENT OVER THOSE THAT DID TO MAKE A CARD WITH! SO HERE YOU HAVE IT! I HAD TO SUB SMOKY SLATE FOR BASIC GRAY - MISPLACED MY GRAY PAD A LONG TIME AGO AND KEEP FORGETTING TO ORDER A NEW ONE! ;( OKAY- WELL - BEDTIME!! HAPPY TUESDAY EVERYONE!

I don't know what the retiform technique is, but I think I am going to have to figure it out because I love this look!! I love the thick twine and the key too, Karen!

Wow, Karen, this is truly a work of art! Like Maura, I am not familiar with this technique but will soon seek out how to do it because of your amazing inspiration, with the perfect color blocks and imagery. Just fabulous!!

I love this retiform technique and how you do it!! I tried it once (casing one of yours from long ago) I think it's kind of tricky!! You did a beautiful job!! Love your globe in the middle.
