5 Metallic Pens & Markers – Ideal for Christmas Cards

Now that we have entered the last month of the year & Christmas is fast approaching I’ve started to think about sending Christmas cards. Although I’m spoilt for choice for something to write with I usually just pick up something from the nearest desk tidy but have decided to break with tradition this year & give metallic pens & markers a whirl as they are rated as ideal for Christmas cards.

Here Are 5 of My Favorite Metallic Markers for Christmas Cards

Sharpie Metallic Markers

Sharpie is arguably one of the most popular markers around. I like the fact that they are great on both light & dark paper, it means I can zip through my card writing session without having to change pens when I come across the different colored card. These Sharpie Metallic Markers have a fine 1.4mm nib, the ink is quick-drying, so no fear of smudges when they are placed in the envelope immediately after writing. They are non-toxic & water-resistant, no need to worry the address may wash off when out for delivery on a wet winters day. They are available in gold silver and bronze making them perfect Christmas colors for your cards and other craft ideas in the festive season.
