Default Faux Stitching

Hi everyone, I love the look of faux stitching! My question is... is there a pen, besides the SU gelpen, that will work with stitching? I'm working on some cards for a swap and I don't think I could get an SU pen in time... is there another pen available at AC Moore or Michaels? Also the cards I am working on are SU chocolate chip and cool caribbean... would stitching look silly?

Thanks in advance!!

Faux Stitching doesn't have to be limited to SU's white gel pen, you can use the fine tip on markers, other gel pens - or use the versamarker and add embossing powder

The fine tip Micron pens by Sakura come in many colors that would look nice for this.

Thanks! I figured that the SU pen wasn't the only one but I hadn't come across a good pen in my travels. I went to a convention today and picked up a Sakura gel pen... can't wait to try it!!
