Retriform Technique

This not one of my most loved techniques. I volunteered to help my upline this weekend. She needed to be with her grandchildren and had several projects to do, so I volunteered to give her and hand with the projects. She had challenged her swappers for this month to create a card using the Retriform Technique. To be honest I had to Google it to find out what is was. Good thing for Google!! I had done this with my clubs a couple of years ago, so I was familiar with the technique even though I didn't know what it was called.

This is what I would consider abstract to a certain degree and it is not one of my strengths. By the time I was done I came to realize it wasn't such a bad technique after all.
