I have used Bucila products before and love them. However a problem with this item became apparent after I started sorting threads.There were two colors missing . I was able to replace them but it was very frustrating. Won't buy from that supplier again.Will purchase kits from Bucila again. Not Amazons fault.Wednesday, December 3, 2014

I've been scrapbooking for about ten years now; occasionally I branch out into other crafts like cardmaking, decoupage, and sewing. These markers have served me so well over the past 5 years! My only complaint about the pens is that a few of them really don't match the color of the marker's cap at all. Like the lavender one that is actually a really dark plum color. Never did figure that out! But I love using them in my scrapbooking and the colors are very versatile.
I am so glad that I bought the set. I have found use for them every day for 3 weeks... whether it be writing in a homemade card, grading essays, scrapbooking, noting in my planner... these markers are inspiring me to do things that I have put off doing for years. I think if you are considering purchasing them then you should go ahead and do it -you won't be sorry!
:)
These pens are also very nice quality. First of all they are Archival & Lightfast. This is important, you might not think about it at first but I've used other pens with great colors of a different brand that started to fade from light within two months and then your artwork is pretty much hosed. They say they are Waterproof but that really means that they water-resistant. You can easily smear the ink with water, or saliva if you are so inclined, which can be used in artistic ways so don't automatically discount them for that. Acid-free is always a must or you'll start seeing weird things happening in your artwork eventually. Non-bleeding is also claimed but that really depends on the type of paper you are using, BUT, if you hold one of these against a sheet of paper it will not create a puddle of ink on the paper around the tip of the pen and that's probably what they are talking about here. You might be surprised at how many pens will do that, even some that are suppose to be used for super fine lines. I made a couple of lightfast test sheets using the zig ink (from a different set of pens) and found that if you use them on cotton they might bleed a tiny tiny bit, watercolor they don't bleed at all, and on normal archival sketchbook paper they are great. I have not had any issues of them bleeding through paper either & I have practically soaked my sketchbook paper with color when blending and mixing colors, so overall the Non-Bleeding is pretty accurate.
The colors are fantastic. 48 colors is more than enough to get practically any color you need either by a pen being that color to start with or by blending a few of the colors on paper. The two sides with two different sizes of nibs are pretty much amazing. .5mm on one side and 1.2mm on the other great for fine lines as well as being able to fill in large areas quickly with color! I love the colors but some of the caps that represent what the colors are suppose to look like are misleading. The ones that stuck out the most when I did a color test on my archival sketchbook paper (I mention the type of paper used because other paper might yield slightly different results from the teeth in the paper or how much the paper soaks up the ink) are:
Pure Pink comes out looking significantly darker than the cap and looks pretty close to a color between the Pure Pink and Fuchsia.
The Wheat & Apricot are VERY similar, it's like the same color but with slight tints of orange & tan.
Pure Red comes out a bit darker than the cap, but is acceptable.
Antique Burgundy comes out darker while the cap looks closer to how Spice comes out.
Baby Blue is a little lighter than the cap.
Salmon is considerably darker/redder than the cap color.
English Lavender comes out darker.
Kiwi is a bit darker while the cap looks kinda neon.
Pure Blue comes out a very nice dark blue, the cap however has some purple coloring in it, so the ink is accurate but the cap color is NOT a Pure Blue.
Denim comes out lighter.
Splash comes out darker.
Navy comes out slightly lighter, the cap is very dark.
Pure Green doesn't look anything like the cap when it comes out other than being a green color, the cap color is a good color for a Pure Green but the color that comes out is more of a blueish grass green.
Pure Violet comes out quite dark compared to the cap.
Platinum is a nice grey but comes out darker than the cap.
Steel Grey is the color you would imagine for that color but the cap is considerably bluer.
Overall the color differences don't really bother me much, you just have to know what they will come out looking like and work with it.
These markers/pens are by far the best I have used.
******************************************************
Edit I just took a closer look at the colors shown on the back of the container (I added a customer photo of the back of the container just FYI). If you assume that those colors are accurate you're going to be a sad camper. I think those are even more inaccurate than the color test I made comparing the caps to the actual colors. Here's the list of those that jump out at me:
Pure Pink, again, this time it looks like it's suppose to be a pink bubble gum color. The color square for Pure Pink is closer to the color that Salmon turned out to be.
Pure Green, same issue as with the cap color looking great this color square looks great, but the actual ink color is nowhere near that color.
Pure Brown is actually redder than the color square.
Pure Orange is practically a neon orange so this color square is nowhere near the right color. Closer to what Apricot turns out to be.
Pure Violet is darker than the color square.
Salmon... I don't think the actual color matches either the cap or the color square. This ink turns out to be missing all of the orange color that makes salmon a salmon color. The actual ink is much closer to looking like the Pure Pink color square.
Baby Pink is much much lighter than the color square.
English Lavender is much more of a plum color than the color square.
Evergreen, that color square should have gone with Hunter Green.
Spring Green is yellower than the color square.
Island Coral. Nope. Ink is the color of the Salmon color square.
Candy Pink is practically a neon pink color, brighter & lighter than the color square.
Clover is much lighter than that.
Summer Sun has more orange in it than the color square.
Peach Bliss is actually more of a light pinkish color and not so much a pale orange like the color square.
Orchid is close but not quite right, more purple in the ink or something.
Fawn isn't quite that orange.
Fuchsia is a little lighter than the color square.
Rose is pinker than the color square.
Coffee has a bit more orange in it than the color square.
Each pen has a fine tip and a broad tip very useful and fun!
The pens are of good quality no fading, no smearing, no "bleeding" and the ink is waterproof.
Color-coordinated pens were used to address Save the Date cards and wedding invitations with no worries of the envelopes arriving at their destinations in anything but perfect condition at least as far as the ink was concerned!

With these pens and a little skill and patience I've been able to mimic how artwork made with colored pencils look as well as watercolor paintings. These pens blend very nicely which is a plus but can also be problematic. Because of their ability to blend they will pull ink along with your pen stroke, which means that if you have outlined a drawing with a black micron pen as I have done that these pens will blend/smear those lines. Even after the black lines have dried they will still smear if you aren't careful when using these. I'm guessing that all water-based pigment inks will do this, just something to keep in mind.These pens are also very nice quality. First of all they are Archival & Lightfast.

Best Folk Art 30459 Peel and Stick Painting Stencil, Floral Deals
they are great decals but the not tell me how to use then They are Siting in my kitchen draw. they did not cost much so very little was lostThese were the perfect stencils for a craft project that involved painting a large piece of PVC. Because of the curves, standard stencils did not work. The adhesive on these is strong enough to create a good seal, so there is no bleeding under the stencil, but it still peels off the surface easily. The stencils are not as thin as others on the market, which makes them sturdier. They peel off cleanly, and wash up well. I used them several times over the course of a week, and the adhesive is still perfect. I highly recommend them, especially if you aren't painting a flat surface.

Transferring an embroidery design onto heavy linen takes ingenuity. This type of linen doesn't work well on a light box or most tracing papers. Thus, I needed a transfer pen which could be ironed onto the linen. I tried the Sulky transfer pens, but a test piece showed me that the lines became much thicker when ironed onto linen. So, back I went to Amazon to find a different pen for the job. Here, I came across these inexpensive red pencils by Aunt Martha. When they arrived, I followed the simple instructions (flip the design over and draw BACKWARDS! over the design, then iron it on. My test showed a perfect transfer onto the linen, although the lines were paler than with the Sulky pens. But...the lines remained thin enough to cover with embroidery, without having any of the lines show. Also, these lines are erasable with a regular pencil eraser from the paper or the linen in case you make a mistake! What wonderful tools these pencils are for any embroiderer! They worked perfectly for me.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Hot Iron Transfer Pencils Set of 2 Make your Own pattern
They could be better. I have to go over lines several times to make it stay. They don't sharpen well and waste too much of the pencil.Thursday, August 7, 2014
