Delightufl card Pauline, love that cute PB image.
I spent all day Thursday setting up my "DJ Case Pro-Markers" after seeing yours, thank you so much it is fantastic and I can see all my colours in an instant. I used to get so frustrated before, just grabbing whichever colour came to hand, now it's simple, looks good too. Hubby recons I need another one tho' cos it doesn't hold them all!!
At £15 it's worth it tho' as the crafters companion storage would have cost me £80.
