Use for Scrapbooks: Paper and Paper Crafts

Just received last week to improve scrapbooks. I used a clear pen on a black scrapbook and then dusted it with white powder. When the rest of the embossing powder was removed, what was left was a perfect replica of what I wrote on dark paper on the first try. The ink takes time to dry, which I needed, so I didn't have to rush. So far I've used a black pen and covered pages in the book, then I opened a glossy magazine to work. The ink applied well to both surfaces, with a thick stroke and sharp…

Perfect complement to Ranger Embossing Inks

This is just what I need to complement the Ranger Embossing powder I use. My favorite is super thin gold. I was able to get up to speed with the Ranger Inkssentials pen in minutes, which allowed me to get crisp thick lines and fine thin lines. You can produce a professionally embossed card that looks just as good as any commercial product. Best of all, it's repeatable. We made dozens of embossed gold cards for a friend's wedding party and they all looked exactly the same. As I primarily use…

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • I doubt it

Dirty project

I have had other embossing pens in the past and they worked very well. I don't know if it's the pen or my technique, but I've never had this problem to this extent. Embossing powder does not adhere well. I put it on, shook off the excess and put it back on because it didn't look like it would wear much the first time. When I used the thermal embosser, the embossing powder looked blotchy and clumpy. I know the attached image is messy, but this was another related issue. I felt like I couldn't…

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Wrinkled

each (anyone making tweezers?). I bought these pens when I first started doing papercrafts about 8-9 months ago. I didn't know at the time that I needed some sort of anti-static powder tool, so all my attempts to use it were futile. I sorted out some of my storage drawers a few days ago and thought about throwing those pens away, but they were still brand new and not dry at all. I had a few boards laying around with boring experiments, so I decided to give these pens another try and see if I…

Pros
