    Rainmac - believe it or not I have hardly any stamps. I've got 3 of the greetings farm ones that got delivered yesterday, and then I've got about five of the cheap imaginese ones (mainly baby ones). I have now got 35 promarkers - my collection is growing!!

    Melissa promarkers are fab aren't they I love mine. If you want some stamped images to practice on with them let me know. I have lots of stamps, magnolia, sugar nellie, whiff joy etc. I have also got the Miss Anya Stamps from the Greetings Farm which are the best ever stamps to colour. I lurve them.

    Lovely card Rusty all very well matched in look great.

    Hamish could I be really really cheeky and ask you for a couple of stamped images to play with?

    No problem, pm me your address. Do you have any preference what you want or will I just send you a selection and what are you using to colour them so I know what ink best to use for you.

    I've put a comparison on my blog of stamped images coloured in with whispers pens and promarkers. Sorry the picture quality isn't the greatest!
