#tgifc152 Technique Time

Happy Friday, everyone!!!!
 Hope you are having a wonderful week, and ready for this week's technique challenge!!! This is a classic technique that might get overlooked a little sometimes, especially with so many multi-step stamp sets available now, but it's still a good one to use!
 If you aren't familiar with it, it is where instead of inking up your stamp on a stamp pad, you use markers to add colors directly to your stamp.This allows you to create some unique looks, including adding multiple colors to one image. You'll definitely want to check out each team member's blog to see how they each used this fun technique!

Before we check out our team's projects for the week, let's take a peek at this week's winner. We want to thank you all for participating, there were some amazing cards, but ultimately, we chose:

Teresa Kline

Now, on to our team!
