Happy Retirement

Hi friends,
This card is going to my old previous principal who is retiring.
Here it is:
 I dusted off the brayer & brayered the background a la Zindorf. The image is from an exquisite set called Landscape Silhouettes from Sweet n' Sassy Stamps. It is a *perfect* set for brayering & the all the images are wonderful! I had so much fun brayering, I have to play with this set some more *Ü*

Here's a peek of the innies:
 That palm tree is a stamp I've had for ages from Anna Griffin. The sentiment on the front & inside of the card is called Congrats from SU.

I used this week's sketch at Tuesday Morning Sketches (rotated):
I am a suuuper beginner when it comes to brayering since I think this is only the second time that I have brayered in my life! Once I watched Michelle's Zindorf's video, I felt more confident to give it a go and I luv it! I only wish I could have taken one of her classes in person :(

Thanks so much for peeking today!
Tootles!
