There are embossing pens that you can use then coat with embossing powder that melts when heated - that would be a similar look.Dina Kowal Creativehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16776399909915317297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36717478.post-31440189405294274112017-01-24T16:22:09.053-05:002017-01-24T16:22:09.053-05:00Wow!Such a cool thing.

You responded to my quest...Thank you so much Dina! You responded to my question on Amazon and the link you sent took me to a blank page but I google searched and found your post, yay! I bought a few Zig's to test and I found the same issues that you mentioned. If I didn't lay down any water first, the original brush strokes remained as I tried to do a color wash, so the color just didn't want to blend. I hadn't thought of dipping the pen tip directly into water and then color, I loved the look you got when you did that! I saw from Japan on the MFT design team use the Sai pens on tiny little tulip flowers, and I thought they looked fantastic, so I understand what you mean by what you said about the one advantage they do offer is getting intense color in very small areas as a water color medium. I think I'll order the same sets you have now that I've read and watched your review. I'll order through your affiliate links. You are so cool.
