Permit me to start off with a little disclaimer – I have only found out about these tools just recently, so they might have been on the marketplace for a little while. The issue is that they will not have been getting much exposure and I think most of these tools deserve more attention than they’ve been receiving, so with out further delay, heres some of the latest scrapping tools:
Bic Mark-it
Bic are now doing more for crafters and scrapbookers. They have released a variety of permanent markets called ‘Mark-its’. What makes these markers so special is that they now use an acid-free solution to mark the paper, meaning that your paper does not become limp, soft or soft.
They come in a big variety of colors – 36 in all! So you won’t have a tricky time finding a color to match your design. Each marker has a pointed tip on it too , meaning they are superb for any precision work too!
These are very easy for creating you own custom doodles and hand drawn designs, good for some of your owncheap scrapbooking supplies.
They have also made it straightforward to store and carry as each pack has a well designed carry case. Really, there isn’t any reason for not getting these!
Cri-Kits
What are Cri-Kits? Cri-Kits are a specifically designed gel pen with a magnetic stub on the non-writing end. This is designed to connect into a magnetic holder.
The holder is a thicker, metal casing with a built in grip and a window incase you want to check what colour you currently have loaded in the holder.
The main advantage of this holder is that it is much thicker than the regular gel pens and if you have ever worked with gel pens for at least 10 minutes – you’ll understand these will stop your hand cramping up. The magnetic tips actually make it so easy to switch pens as well.
In the following article, we’ll be continuing to have a look at some of the new scrapbook tools that have come out which may make your life so much easier!
