Bought this before I had a proper ink pad. This is a pretty good alternative to using the embossing ink. Great if you want to freehand anything or fill in spots!

I'm not into liquid eyeliner. I love how skinny this pencil-like liner is. It really doesn't need sharpening, unless need a chisel point. Lasts a "l o n g" time.

I have purchased embossing pens in the past and they were always a disappointment. Either they were too dry or just didn’t work well. I was pleasantly surprised with how well these pens worked. I can write with them or just use them for smaller areas and I always have good results. The black comes in handy, too.

I use the clear pen a lot, the black not so much. I luv these pens though. I always have issues when embossing and with these pens I can easily fix any issues I have. Missed a spot, no problem, just use the pen to fill in the spots that didn't take the first time, reapply the powder, let your heat gun heat up and melt. No more starting over from the beginning! You can also write and draw with them and they work in the universal pen holder made for the scan n cut machine. The ink stays wet for a long time too. I recommend buying these pens because they are worth their weight in gold!

I've only used the Ranger brand so I can't speak for any other brand, but these embossing pens worked and they were nice! They did stain a little into each other (i.e. if I used clear on top of the black for some reason), which was a little annoying to me but understandable since it is ink. It got a little dry after a couple of uses, but was fine after I stopped using it for a while. These are great, affordable pens that I would recommend to anyone thinking about trying heat embossing!

Great pens as described in description! My girlfriend and I really enjoy adding that extra touch of "wow" to our scrapbook. We are just starting out, however these pens are a must have in your arsenal! Try using different embossing powders as there are tons of them at your local arts and crafts store. Not even do these work fine on paper you can use them on check personalized check presenters if youre a server or even cardstock or cardboard if you have a presentation! I only wish they offer thinner ones but these will do just fine! Will buy more later on if I ever run out.

These pens are great for embossing detailed images, drawing & embossing your own designs or handwriting, and fixing any knicks or scratches in a larger embossed piece (craft tweezers anyone?).I purchased these pens when I first started dabbling in papercrafts about 8-9 months ago. Back then, I didn't realize that I needed an anti-static powder tool of some kind, so all of my attempts using these were a mess. A few days ago, I was clearing out some of my craft storage boxes and thought about tossing these pens, but they were still brand new & were not dry at all. I had a few panels of boring experiments that were sitting around, so I thought I've give these pens another shot & see if I can jazz up some of those panels. This time, I loved results. I'm attaching a picture of the first piece that I tried the pen on. It's a watercolored & dry-embossed henna design that was dull dull dull. After using the clear version of this pen to highlight a portion of the raised design & adding a bit of embossing powder to it, the piece was interesting enough to mount on a card - at least I thought it was! :)I did notice that the ink in these pens dry a little more quickly than the ink pad seems to - possibly because the ink that you are laying down with the pen is a much thinner & finer layer. You'll have to stop and heat emboss in sections and powder again before you do another section, if you are doing more than a few words of text. The image that I included was done in 8-10 sections. I think the results can definitely be worth the effort. I've since gone to town with these pens, embossing all kinds of details (by the way, using this pen on the highlights of your Altenew flowers instead of using an embossing inkpad results in a crisper clearer image), and the pens have still not run dry, so they seem to last quite a while.I've tried this technique using a glue pen in the past (e.g., Quickie Glue Roller Pen, Zig Squeeze & Roll, etc.), and they all work pretty well if I'm just wanting to do a small dot or a doodle or something; however, they were all a bit inconsistent and skipped or blobbed if I tried to draw a consistent line or wanted a consistent thickness. Since this embossing pen is a marker, I get a smoother and more consistent finish.Also, it is much easier to fix mistakes or tweezer marks on a large embossed image with this pen than with an embossing ink pad.
