Stampers Anonymous has a great stamp set with fountain pen related images and old cursive handwriting images, etc. I thought they would be perfect for this gang of letter writers. I used my archival black ink and plenty of Distress Inks. Only one is done so far, but it was a lot of fun to make.

Finished bookmark:
The metal nib is from Tim Holtz and I think it was a fun embellishment. The seam binding was stamped with a fun swirl image from the set as well.
