wonderful stamp. this kind of layering starts with writing the name once in the lightest shade, then layering different patterns. if you think about it, as you are doing the first set of stokes, leave a few gaps. the colors can get a little muddy.
this is a good example of using all the different zig markers. base layer with calligraphy tip, the added layers with other types of markers. those little sets of 3 parallel lines were done by tapping the wide calligraphy tip three times.
and i noticed that john neal also has a very good price on the 48-marker sets. scroll down, two posts, for details.
