The right paper can transform your ink — from subtle shading to luminous sheen. Smooth paper enhances shimmer and colour depth, while textured sheets soften tones with character. Learn how to pair your inks and papers for the perfect balance of beauty, flow, and creativity, and make every handwritten moment uniquely yours.
The perfect holiday card starts with the perfect ink. From classic reds and greens to shimmering golds and silvery sheens, your ink choice sets the tone for every heartfelt message. Explore rich colours, choose your finish — dye, sheen, or shimmer — and bring your handwritten greetings to life this festive season.
Sheening and shimmering inks brighten your writing in two different ways: sheen shines as a secondary hue when light hits pooled dye, while shimmer glitters from mica particles suspended in the ink. Sheen is easier to manage and clean, while shimmer offers dazzling sparkle but requires more care. Use broader nibs, shake shimmer inks, and clean often to enjoy both effects.
