Here is what I came up with for the 'Pens, Pencils & Brushes' over at 'Wednesday Stamper' this week. I took a picture of a few things I like to work with and printed it off twice. Once on pc paper and once on vellum. I overlayed the print on top of the vellum. The pen 'nib' is the only stamp I used, plus the photo ...which included the 'hand' stamp. I also used clip art and a piece of sandpaper. This collage was a challenge for me! Not quite what I hoped for, but it is interesting to have it finished .. whew! (and...I did try to use a pen with nibs yesterday and the nib would not hold ink long enough to write one letter. Any suggestions?

great idea to use different papers to print your picture...love the result
Great photo, I love the effect of the vellum and the brightness of the photo on regular paper.
And for the pen nib, try to put the nib on a piece of paper, slightly and very gently press a little so that the nib opens a tiny bit, and then use it with ink, most of the time doing this once with a new nib should solve the problem. I hope I made myself clear, but please remember to be very careful because with to much pressure the tip will stay open and you can use it anymore.
What a fun technique, Love it! So much to look at here :)
hugs and smiles,
Linda
