Retro technique?

Where is this on the site? Thanks

Do you know how to do a search?

Go into forums and at top of page (under ads) is a seach button.
Type in what you are looking for and see if anything comes up.

You can go to the gallery and do the same thing if you are just looking for pics.

Here's a great tutorial for the Retiform technique.

Also, if you go into the gallery and do a search for retro technique - not retriform. I think you may be talking about something different. I think retro is where you take post its and place them on your cardstock, brayer or sponge over it, move them and then brayer or sponge again, etc. Then stamp images over the colors.....

Example:

Yah, retro uses post-its.

Retiform is when you sponge to create lines that create odd shaped blocks to stamp in.



Retro, you mostly cover your GLOSSY paper with post its. You should have a few colors picked out to brayer. First brayer your darkest color over the post its and paper. Then remove a few post its, brayer your next color, remove more post its, brayer lightest color. Some people leave some white showing too. You can stamp right on it or layer on it.
