I love writing with shimmery glittery pens and in today’s post, I’ve pulled out ALL of my Metallic markers and Metallic pens to share with you. They are all wonderful on their own and you can pick which one suits you best.
I simply cannot resist buying markers! I use them all and enjoy creating marker art in my journals. I also loved sharing The Best Pastel Highlighters with you all- let’s do a metallic pen version today!

What are metallic pens used for?
Metallic pens are great to use while making place cards, they look beautiful when used to do brush lettering as well!
Can you use metallic markers on white paper? Do They work on black paper?
Metallic markers can most definitely be used on both white and black papers. That said, these shimmery colors will look the most dramatic on darker papers.
