How about a little Japanese inspired make using the ZIG Memory System Scroll and Brush pens? If you want to see some more details for this one then pop on over the Kuretake blog to see some more. I've done a bit of blending as well as both Italics and Brush calligraphy for this one. Have a fun Saturday! Kim

What is this? I've managed to join the WOYWW revellers on two consecutive weeks? Shock! Yay! Hello WOYWW-ers! I thought I would show another mini-journal page this week on my rather untidy work space. I've been playing working with PanPastel and Zig Millennium pen.
