A Touch Of Elegance

For today's Mono Monday theme of "Communication", my husband and my Valentine, graciously loaned me some of his favorite tools for a disappearing method of communication, the handwritten letter or note written with fountain pen and ink.  I prefer to use ball point pens myself, as fountain pens are not left-handed friendly, but he carries his fountain pen with him, so that he can use it to sign whatever he may need to sign with that extra touch of elegance that the fountain pen adds, even though it does not necessarily improve penmanship!  Once again, there were two possibilities that we liked, so I have put the other shot in the extras.  Thanks to jensphotos for hosting.....
