Card making question
I have a lot of beautiful dark blue cardboard for cards. Is there something you can use to write on it? I tried those pens with glittering gel (jelly?) in them but no luck. (The boys will love it when I start to mark their tests with those, though.
)

How about a tipp-ex pen? alternatively, put another colour (lightweight) paper inside the card? Sort of like a little book...?

Re: Card making question
I use silver or gold pens to write on dark cards -- I think they're gel pens too, but they seem to do the trick!

Re: Card making question
Yes, I would use either a silver pen or put a paper insert inside.
