Pens, Pencils, Markers and Erasers

Having a variety of pens, pencils, and markers is essential to all different scrapbooking projects. Different scrapbooking projects call for different writers. You will basicly need a black pen set, a white pen, utility pens, markers, and colored pens and pencils. White pens are used to write on darker backgrounds to enhance any writing. Utility pens are a versatile set for beginner and veteran scrapbookers. The photo marker can be used to write on the fronts and backs of photos. The pet-eye and red-eye pens are useful for photos where the eyes of pets and people are red or not true to color. The pH tester helps to see if the materials you're using on layouts are acid-free. The vanishing ink is useful to draw doodling lines or guidelines for lettering so you know where to draw or write. Most utility sets include a guide as to what each pen is used for. And of course markers and colored pens and pencils are great for any creative display. You will need a basic white plastic eraser, these are great for any mistakes made with pencil and help to remove excess glue as well.

Scrapbooking Fonts

There are many places that you can get fonts for your project. You can download them off of websites as well as use the ones from any Microsoft Office or Mac program as well. There are also font programs available to buy, which i would recommend over downloading from websites. When downloading, be cautious of where the file is coming from and do research into the security of the site in order to avoid viruses and hackers. There are also stencils available in case you want to use your own creative colors and placement of letters. You can find stencils of designs rather than just letters as well.
