Tip of the Day: Spica markers have glitter in the ink and work best when stored horizontally to prevent clogging the flow of ink!
Isn't this image beautiful? It is a GKD and illustrated by the talented Theresa Momber.
And this is the wonderful butterfly image on the same stamp set.
Doesn't the Copic Spica Pen make it sparkle?
