Pen seems to be working fine and not clogging.<br />Kate, for practice you just need to address a few hundred wedding invitations.gay kraegerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06922792724771138962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1764822475195816427.post-90625060472242437512011-06-19T09:47:23.252-05:002011-06-19T09:47:23.252-05:00I find I love the flex pen for sketching, not so m...I find I love the flex pen for sketching, not so much for writing/lettering.

But, I had to finish a page with my new JetPen first. Now, with YOUR inspiration, Gay, I'm itching to go with it. Your lettering and page design are so inviting. Isn't it funny what a new tool will do for the creative urge? Thanks, all, for the pen recommendations.Maria Hodkinshttp://www.windword.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1764822475195816427.post-61980901930762027192011-06-18T13:36:34.664-05:002011-06-18T13:36:34.664-05:00Love this Kay!
