so as much as i love maya road products, our line is not complete alone. it is kinda hard to scrapbook when you just make the basics like us - LOL. so as much as i use or don't use MR, i also use other companies' products.
i had to say when robin told me that ranger was making a white journaling pen, i was over the moon. good white pens are hard to come by!
so during the last day of CHA, robin was so kind to give me the very last white pen that she had hanging around her neck! all during the packing process, i would panic b/c the pen would fall off my badge holder and i was afraid i had lost it - LOL.
well i FINALLY got to put the pen to use this week - i created this very simple LO about noah with some left over photos i had.
here is a shot of the entire layout.
what is nice about the pen is the viscosity of the ink. the engineers out there would know what i am talking about. i have tried lots of white pens. some have a low viscosity and therefore it flows but it is too liquid and hence, it seems that the white which looks really white in the barrel of the pen is not so concentrated on the project since it spreads out all over. then there are some that are super viscous, but those tend to clump and make the ball of the pen plug up.
i didn't find that with ranger's pen. i was able to draw all my doodling easily and the ink flow was constant and smooth! so i must say this former engineer approves!
Hey-how did you do the white print journaling on the green strips??? And I gotta get that pen!!
