The Speedball Elegant Writer was a hit at our Make โ€˜n Take table today at Scrapaganza! ๐Ÿคฉ

Everyone was amazed by the magic of its ink. Some said it resembled northern lights!

The process:
1. Trace a cookie cutter with a pencil on cold pressed watercolour paper. We brought ghosts, cats, and bats as options!
2. Go over the pencil outline with the Speedball Elegant Writer.
3. Take a wet brush and pull the ink into your shape using the water from your brush.
4. After the shape is filled, we stamped away with our โ€œHappy Halloweenโ€ stamp and some fun spiders, bats, and webs!
5. As a bonus, we coloured in our โ€œHappy Halloweenโ€ stamp with Faber-Castell Polychromos colour pencils.

So fun! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿป Catch us for another demo tomorrow with a different theme here at Scrapaganza.

You might notice they look a little like Cola pens, but thereโ€™s a difference. These Italian-made pens are designed to be easier to master, more reliable, and comfortable to use.โฃ
โฃ
Theyโ€™re perfect for expressive and gestural calligraphy, drawing, and sketching. Play with the tip or the main edge to create thick and thin marks, and have fun experimenting with ink!โฃ
โฃ
And yes, that little metal plectrum has a purpose! It helps clean out paper and ink residue from the penโ€™s central slot, so you can keep your pen in good shape. ๐Ÿฅณ

Available in three sizes, get them now at Kensington Art Supply. โœจ
