Grin Just had to tell you - I have gone mad....on Glaze pens Grin

Re-discovered the only one I own (black) thanks to your mania on them and was prompted (on another forum!) to try drawing free hand with it. Isn't it fabby!!
I am shading my outlines with watercolour & hope to post my efforts later.
Right, I now want the cheapest place to buy a set of these wonderful pens Grin

They are bloody marvellous and I love them.

I get them on eBay, from various sellers.

A couple of my cards on the gallery are drawn with them and I'm using them more and more now. Like the idea of using them with watercolour - and your cards are lovely!

Glad to have inspired you Grin

So is the glaze quite thick on the card then?

Report
Whizzz · 20/06/2006 18:38

Not that thick, but thick enough to look scrummy & a bit shiny. Really easy to use too
