I was looking at Jennifer McGuire's blog a while back (she is my stamping idol) and saw a technique where she used a white pen to add dots to her images. It was beautiful so I had to try it and here is the result. The image is from Hero Arts (of course... I love Hero!) and the papers are Basic Grey. I have done this technique a few more times since this card and have improved a bit... the trick is you just need to be patient and take your time making all those dots! I will post more cards using this technique soon. :)
BTW, Jennifer recommended the BEST white pen ever... the Signo UM-153. You can get them at Two Peas and eBay. I loved these pens so much I bought a box of them on eBay!

Cindy, that turned out so lovely! I am so impressed with this card. And YES, I can vouch for that pen! You gave me one, and I just love the thing. I almost never use it, saving it for something special! ha ha
Love you, my little friend.
Hugs, Pat
