I saw from your directions that the background needs to be filled in. Can you show an example of how that would be done with ball point pen? I’m thinking of trying these but want to make sure I understand. Thanks.

Here are my first two cards. I'm new to the ballpoint pen medium. The pens I picked out got some little ink blobs. I am going to experiment with more pens that write smoothly.
Please sign me up! Finished my cards this morning and I'll try to get pics up.
I'll need your address, so I'll PM you.
