I love this. I think I will try Distress Pencils for my card.

Where did the brick paper come from? I love it as the background.

I just want to know where to buy "no line ink" I can't find it anywhere, is it a particular brand? TY

For no line ink I just use a very light shade of ink. It gets hidden as you add the other colors

So there is no such products as 'no line ink', just use a light color. Pigment or dye, or does it matter? Thanks, muscrat
