    1. Memento ink as recommended (Tuxedo Black) and blending card which we sell at Crafty Capers. I recently read a suggestion that the ink needs time to dry (I had not found that necessary myself).

  4. A number of our customers at Crafty Capers have asked about the background paper used. It was from Prima Marketing's Fairy Flora Collection - Sunlight Daisies. I believe it is discontinued though there was one US company still listing it (Bluemoon?). You could get a similar background by distressing! Jill
