These are some lovely handmade papers. This photo doesn't really do them justice as the colors are much more rich that what is shown here.
I love Micron Pigma Pens! And in all sizes, too! They will write over acrylics (dry) and are permanent when dry, too. I love them in my journals.
I saw someone at PLAY who was using the Inktense pencils. They are pretty cool. They are soluable in water and they look kind of like ink in intensity when they are dampened with water. However, once they have been made wet, when they dry they are permanent--which is a pretty cool quality if you are wanting to work with layers in watercolor.
I don't know anything about the Graphitint other than I liked the way they went on the page and I had all the other ones so why not buy these, too, to complete my stash??!!!! Yes! I hear you cheering for me! :-)
The small box of pencils are WAY cool! I took them to the Journaling Bonfire night and let my friends use them. They agree that they go on really soft and creamy--much like Prismacolor but not as waxy. They aren't too soft or too stiff. I think they are one of the best colored pencil sets I've ever used. They are woodless so the whole barrel is pigment. Pretty awesome, huh? They are made by Koh-i-Noor and they are simply called Woodless Colour Pencils. Very simple. As you can tell, I love pens and pencils!
I love the poster paint pens, too, for working in my journals. They come in all sorts of colors including flourescents. Many say they are being discontinued but I don't know for sure. I've heard both yes and no from the company. Just to be safe, I bought several of the extra-fine black and white pens so I could have a little stash. The are just about the best pen I have ever used to go over acrylic and the white is truly opaque on even the darkest of colors. Love them!
I picked up a few little and skinny Moleskins at Borders on the way to Port Townsend. I had ordered the Jellyroll Gel Pens from jetpens.com. The tape I got from Akamai. The yellow roll is actually "ruled" up to 12 inches and then repeats. This ought to be a cool journal addition. (I love tape, too!) The little boxes are the best little pen/pencil carrying boxes I've ever used. I got them from Akamai. I had bought one last year just to try out. It is the best travel box I've ever used so I bought some more to have this year. I think I have 4 now!
Well, this should about do it for supplies! (Lisa, this post was for you!) Next I'll get around to posting some stuff I made in my classes. My teachers were awesome and I'd do it all again given the opportunity.
