I'm in love.............with Promarkers!!!!!

[gwyneth 123]

I think I read about promarkers needing to be stored flat to prevent the ink running too much to one end

The Letraset Promarker Oganiser ( not the wallet) store them upright so I don't think it matters.
I store mine in eight pencil Rub boxes...red, pink,green.blue,brown,orange & black/grey with a coloured chart inside each box. They stack up so they don't take that much room really.

How many promarker colours ARE there?

I just read on a site that there are 92 colours in the range. A few more to get then!!!!!!!!

[Loobylou2]

Oooooops, make that 148, thats how many colours are illustrated on the new pack I got a couple of weeks ago.

Got 2 sets today for mothers day am looking forward to trying these out

Is it the memento ink pads that work best? What about stazon? I have the pens and after seeing some of the lovely works of art on the passion for promarkers site I think I need to get using mine!

[Annette25]

I bought the Memento pad after seeing it recommended often on Promarker sites, but I find the ink bleeds enough to annoy me. I prefer Versafine, heat embossed with clear powder, or left 24 hours, then it doesn't bleed at all. Heat embossing is definitely my preferred option.

[coreysmum]

No you can't use stazon. The alcohol in the copics reactivates it and it smudges.

[Jencrafts]

Thanks

I was told last week by a Promarker seller that the coloured pens can be stored anyway up, but the metallics need to be stored flat. HTH

Thanks for the Stazon info - that explains the trouble I've been having! Will try the heat embossing.

I agree promarkers are fab and I have also bought a set of watercolour markers which give totally different results.

[Jacobsmum]

I have managed to use Staz on without any bleeding just make sure its left to dry for ages. I also use printouts - again leave to dry prefably overnight and there is no problem with smudging.

this is how i store my promarkers - fits nicely on my desk and easy to see...

[DoggyScrapper]

Anyone have a list with the whole set of colours on? I'd like to know what I've got and what I still need...

[Angel Crafts]

Love my ProMarkers too - but so does my 8 year old - so now he gets a pen every week as part of his pocket money.

He loves when I order in more pens as he gets to help me sort them out.

Don't forget we have free postage on all ProMarkers and our bulk buy deals are fantastic value and a great way to build up your collection as you choose the colours - I can also send a colour chart - just ask in the comments box
All our ProMarkers are here

Ruth, try the memento ink, you don't need to leave it. Also i use the Impress ink pad and that works fine too.

Yes I love them too, they are just super gorgeous and for the first time this weekend I got them to do exactly what Iu wanted but that may be because I bought 30 colours on Friday

I like the Versafine best but I do like Memento too.
