Out of the Kitchen Tuesday #2

I've had these blank greeting cards in my hallway Closet O' Random Stuff for quite some time and I finally decided to do something with them. Every once in a while I get really in the mood to do stuff with ink pens, and I thought it would be fun to draw on these little cards with some fun pens. There is really nothing like a good pen. So smooth and inky, it's incredibly satisfying.

I got these colorful pens that I've really been enjoying lately. They are pretty colors, and the case folds back to make a little pen stand, which I enjoy immensely.


When writing or drawing with black ink, my current favorite pen is the Pilot Precise V7 or V5, depending on how fine a line I want.

So, I used all my fun, fancy pens to draw a couple of silly greeting cards. 





I have only done these two so far, but I'd like to do some more, and I have plenty of blank cards left. It's kind of a relaxing project. I worked on one card while hanging out in my boyfriend's office, keeping him company while he was working. The other I did while hanging out with my mom in her glass studio. Fun things, fun things!

I may put some handmade cards up in the Etsy shop someday soon!
