I found a great pen to use when I am working on my scrapbooks. I found that when I used a regular ink pen, there was really no "flair" to the look of the writing. These Sakura color gelly roll pens were amazing!
Not only did they give a metallic twist to my captions, they even stood out on the darker paper, even black.
The best thing I think about Sakura is that not only is the quality of the pen terrific, but the ink is archival safe and doesn't bleed through my thinner paper I sometimes use for highlighted areas on top of my background.
There are silver shadow metallic gel pens, which have an individual ink color enhanced with silver metallic. Especially on white paper, the silver metallic is actually outlined with the pen color. Same for the gold shadow metallic...they have gold metallic effects outlined by the ink color.
The roller ball pen is comfortable to write with and it doesn't smear like many other gel pens I have used. Whether you choose the Gelly Roll Shades, Gelly Roll Stardust, Gelly Roll Metallic or regular Gelly Roll Color pens, you will be happy with the result!
