  25. Love your blog! Which pen(s) would you recommend for Bible journaling (thin pages) that do not bleed through? I want to use both brush type pens and thin pens-preferably with the ability to color elements of the letter designs for accent.
    Thanks.

  26. hi fran! thanks so much for your comment on my inspiration monday blog post! to answer your question about pens for Bible journaling, i've had good luck using the sakura micron pens. they do tend to bleed through the paper a bit, but if you'd like to avoid that, you could do your artwork on separate paper and then attach to your Bible page using a dry adhesive so it won't buckle the page. thanks again for stopping by my blog!
