My pen holder for my Silhouette Cameo finally arrived this week. YEAH!!! So what's a girl to do, but play with all the pens I could find in my craft room.
I have decided I love the Uni-ball white pen! It flows on the paper so smoothly whether it is black, white or purple - it looks great!
I have also fell in love with Infinity Neon Fine tip pens. The pens are vibrant and no skipping at all - smooth clean lines!!!
Unfortunately I was not impressed with all the Silhouette Sketch pens I purchased. The gold and silver would not write a smooth line (maybe they were old pens, but I only purchased them a month ago). The other colors I purchased worked about 50% of the time. The red, blue and purple worked fine, but the orange, yellow and pink were very disappointing. Skipped and the yellow you can barely see on white paper.
Take a look at my tests and you can judge for yourself.
