What beautiful pens! Even though people don't use them much anymore (more is the pity), there is nothing quite like the feel of one of these pens in one's hand. When I think of using a fountain pen, I think of calligraphy and the beautiful handwriting people used to do when they'd write a thank you note or send an invitation. So I decided to create a notecard for any occasion. Just an elegant little card.
This is the pen I chose for my inspiration: http://www.pinterest.com/pin/387591111652063074/

Wonderful earth tones. Love that bit of sparkle. I WAS going to tell you who made your sentiment, but when I compared mine really close, they are not the same. Nice though.

WOW this is gorgeous! Perfect for so many occasions too. I love that gold cord and the way you knotted it along with the embossed lower panel! Beautiful layers on this.

Beautiful inspiration card. It's really too bad that the fountain pen is mostly just a memory. And to think they are thinking of NOT teaching cursive any longer.
