Hi Tracy, your card is stunning! I love your new stamp and your colouring is wonderful. Great design, papers and embellishment, it's all so pretty. Thanks for the lovely comment you left for me today, it's so much appreciated. You asked about colouring with promarkers and stamping ink etc., I use a coated card to stamp on which has a a very smooth surface, a friend gets it for me so I can't give you a brand I'm afraid but I believe Staples have some, my card is the type printers use to make business cards. For stamping, at the moment I'm using versafine ink it picks up the detail really well and gives a nice crisp image. I don't get on with stazon, I can never get a good image with it. I do sometimes get bleed with the versafine and am going try Memento as I've read this is the best for using with markers. The bleeding usually happens if I oversoak the image with the pen. Letting the ink dry really well after you've stamped also helps or you could heat set it slightly and that's the same for any digital images that you print out, leaving them to dry for a good while makes a difference. Hope this helps Tracy, and drop me a line if there's anything I can explain better. Have a great weekend. Chris x
