Art is from Lettering Delights Rustic Sketches, Set 1. Love these to death. They turned out wonderfully, except I forgot to ensure the card was positioned between the rollers, so the rooster has some ink blots from the roller. I also forgot to hide my box layer on the skull. Lessons learned. :D

Very nice. I have always liked those two. What pen(s) did you use in the pen holders to do these with?

Hi MeFlick, I used the black gel pen that I had gotten in a huge set at Costco. I didn't want to use the Sakura pens until I'm more confident with my machine.

You're most welcome MeFlick. They seem to work pretty good. However, they do sometimes leave a small pool of ink when they first start writing.
