Raking Leaves layout with Chomas Creations adjustable pen holder & no bleed Sharpie pens!


Something I always do when I come to a pen or marker aisle in the store is see if I can find something new to try in the Chomas Creations adjustable holders!  Well I found these no bleed Sharpie markers on my last trip to Staples, and they came in a 5 pack of different colors!

Don't forget there is a sale going on in the Chomas Creations store! When you use the coupon code december10 at checkout you save 10% off your entire purchase!!
I know I'm a bit behind on my fall pages, as it has snowed here twice in the last 3 days, but I wanted this one done as I had it printed and ready to go!
So I figured these would be perfect for drawing on cardstock!  Especially the no bleed part which sometimes we have trouble with, with the die cut machines and bleeding.  So I put them to the test in the Expression 2 and the Chomas Creations adjustable marker holder, and low and behold, no bleeding!!  And these are small leaves I drew, less then 1 inch tall, so they have very fine details! 
I also used the Chomas Creations min gel pens (they fit in both the adjustable pen holder and the mini gel pen holder) to draw the journaling lines for this page, you can see how I did that here... journaling lines 
The title I put together in Cricut Craft room.  I've been having a lot more luck with the Expression 2 getting the finer details in my cuts, sorry, just saying!  The title is from Cindy Loo.
Here is my page all put together, with a few extra leaves from A Child's Year.
