Have you ever tried using black paper before? You can get some really fun effects using white, pastel and metallic gel pens & paint pens on black paper. You can also use a black paper journal for note taking, journaling and doodling.
The Zebra Sarasa & Pilot Pop-Lol Pens dried quicker and were slightly easier to write with. All gel pens wrote beautifully on the black paper and stood out. The Hybrid Dual Metallic Pens have more of a glittery sheen on the page, we would recommend choosing lighter colours in the range to use on black paper, or pairing them with another brighter pen in your headings and designs.
The Tombow Fudenosuke Pastel Brush Pens have a chalk like effect when written on black paper. The colours get brighter as they dry. These brush pens also have a watercolour type effect where you can see different shades of pigment on the page, so layering can produce stronger colours. We were really surprised at how beautifully the Tombow Irojiten Coloured Pencils show up on the black paper. Not only did the pale colours pop on the page, but so did the darker colours. These pencils would pair beautifully with the black paper for sketching, doodling and creating beautiful journal layouts.

The book is so droolworthy, both outside with the decorations, and inside with so much space and thought given to my impressions of books l have read. What a beauty
It’s not July yet and I can’t wait for it to roll around. I have found the perfect planner which I can personalise to suit my needs. It’s gorgeous and functional, totally personalisable and I can’t believe I’d never heard of Happy Planners till now !
These washi tapes are ones I have not seen elsewhere. They are reasonably prices and just beautiful. WashiGang always send fun mail and it is a pleasure to receive it.
Bought these as my grandson wanted a penpal, he's 5 so I was looking for more than just plain. The quality and design for all items is great, the reactions from the post office staff through to my grandson were terrific . They brought a smile to everyone's face while I bought stamps. Online service to receive my order was quick and status reports regular. Very happy with my purchase.
