I love coloured gel pens... The are so smooth to write with and the pretty colours make even the simplest of writing feel so special.
ReplyDeleteGel pens do come in some lovely colours Clouise! You are no.1 for this draw :)
DeleteI love fountain pens. They're so elegant, and each pen gives a different writing experience. Plus, you can fill them up with whatever ink colour takes your fancy!
ReplyDeleteHayley I'm a big fan of fountain pens! You are no.2 for this draw :)
DeleteI like all pens! Those look really nice!
ReplyDeleteThanks for entering Lucy! You are no.3 for this draw :)
DeleteI love using ball point pens! Yes they are common but I loooove how they are so smooth whenever I take down notes for school and there are a wide selection of colors and decorations. I love picking out the bright ones since they are so cute and funky, they light up my stationary!
ReplyDeleteMeryl I agree, ballpoints are great! You are no.4 for the draw :)

Joanny I love #NatStatWeek so much! I have tried those two, I'll have to check them out ;)
DeleteYou are no.5 for the draw.
I like ball point pens the best because I seem able to write better with them than any other type of pen xxx
ReplyDeleteMy writing is neater with a ballpoint too Tracey! You are no.6 for the draw :)
DeleteI love ballpoint pens. They are so smooth and glide perfectly, makes my handwriting beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThanks Kristy, you are no.7 for the draw :)
DeleteI don't really have a favourite, I use different types for different things, why limit yourself to just one sort!! {maybe i'm still searching for the perfect pen!}
ReplyDeleteLol you're right Nicky! You are no.8 for the draw :)
Delete(My first comment hasn't shown!)
ReplyDeleteI love fountain pens as they take me back to a time when people used to write with a quill dipped in ink, and I love to watch the ink dry as you write :) x
Sorry Kelly, I don't know why the comments aren't showing, thanks for trying again.
DeleteI love fountain pens for the same reason :) You are no.9 for the draw.
As Kelly above, my comment hasn't shown so trying again!
ReplyDeleteI recently started using Staedtler Triplus Fineliners in my planner and just love them. I'm lusting after a brush pen though, that's gonna be my next buy ;-)
Sorry Linds, thanks for trying again.
DeleteOk I'll admit it, I don't know wha a brush pen is, I'm scared to google it in case I NEED one! ;) You are no.10 for the draw.
My favorite type of pen is gel ink ones because the ink is usually so pigmented. They write smooth and dark. However, they tend to bleed or go through the paper in my Filofax, so I tend to look for good ballpoint pens.
ReplyDeleteThe Filofax paper is picky with the pens it likes isn't it! You are no.11 in the draw Gabby :)
DeleteI prefer ballpoint pens, these are what I most use daily, and in many colors! I find it much easier to write with them, they are very soft and do not mark through the paper. But i like every kind of pen. :P ♥
ReplyDeleteFernanda I love all the colours too!
DeleteYou are no.12 in the draw :)
I love gel pens. Always have. It must be the colors that they come in and how you can get such a small point with them.
ReplyDeleteThanks for entering Callie, you are no.13 for the draw :) I hope you're not superstitious!
DeleteI love bright colors and fine points! Color makes me happy! ;)
ReplyDeleteSnap Lynette! Colours makes me happy too :) You are no.14 for the draw.
DeleteI love erasable pens and totally totally think they are the best. I love finding the new type of erasable and wish someone come up with a solid colour erasable black pens
ReplyDeleteEve I haven't found an erasable pen I love yet (but I've not tried many!). You are no.15 for the draw :)
DeleteWhat a great giveaway! I prefer a ballpoint. I am a lefty and I think ballpoint pens do not smear as much as the rest.
ReplyDeleteMarlies the Zebra Sarasa pen is great for left handed people because it dries so quickly ;) You are no.16 for the draw.
DeleteI'm all about the fountain pen, the older the better. My oldest is my 1917 Parker slimline duofold, and while it's nib needs serious work, the body and sac are in perfect working order! Quality lasts forever!
ReplyDeleteWow 1917, that's amazing! I'm kind of jealous ;)
DeleteYou are no.17 for the draw.
I love ballpoints pens, they don't smear and are easier to write with
ReplyDeleteMe too Karin! You are no.18 for the draw :)
DeleteMy favorite pens are gel. The ink goes on so smoothly and the colors are vibrant.
ReplyDeleteLara I love the scented gel pans! You are no.19 for the draw.
DeleteMy favorite pens are .38 Muji gel pens!
ReplyDeleteThanks for entering Lauren! You are no.20 for the draw :)
DeleteMy favourite pens are fineliners, I love how they write and they make my handwriting so neat! I'm really liking the Steadtler Triplus Fineliners at the moment :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried those either, they're going on my list ;) You are no.21 for the draw!
DeleteMy favourite pens are fountain pens - unfortunately they are not good tool for any paper and they can smudge if you are not careful.
ReplyDeleteThanks for entering Iza, you are no.22 for the draw :)
DeleteI like ball point pens. They write smoothly and don't smudge easily. They also can be found in an array of colors at an affordable price.
ReplyDeleteI'm a fan too Keisha! You are no.23 for the draw :)
DeleteGel pens !
ReplyDeleteThanks for entering Bianca! You are no.24 for the draw :)
DeleteFountain pens are beautiful and my definite favourite, I have a gorgeous peanut wood one with a lovely bottle of dark navy ink for it but as it isn't planner friendly I keep it for special notes etc and use my gel pen in my filo.
ReplyDeletePeanut wood sounds beautiful! I save my fountain pen for cards and letters too if I'm not doodleing in my notebook with it :) You are no.25 for the draw!
DeleteNothing beats a good old fountain pen. But to my utter dismay not all papers are fountain pen friendly and that's when my trustworthy ballpoint pen comes to save the day :)
ReplyDeletePsst... You can never have enough pens.
You're right you can never have too many!
DeleteYou are no.26 for this draw :)
I love the look of gel pens, but most of the time I prefer to use ballpoint pens as I find they don't smudge as much! :)
ReplyDeleteGood point! You are no.27 for this draw :)
DeleteHmm depends on the occasion, paper etc I love a good quality ink pen as they look stylish, are reusable & can be changed up with different ink colours BUT they can smudge,leak etc I like ball point , wider point for a smooth flow & neater handwriting but I love gel pens for how fun & colourful they are, the different effects they can give eg metallic & for tiny writing (like in my 5 lines a day 5 year journal) Lol, basically I just love pens - & now I'm thinking of the League Of Gentleman character ''Pauline'' who was obsessed with pens& whose dream it is to own a pen shop called ''Her Nibs":
ReplyDeleteEverything I know about people I learned from pens. If they don't work, you shake them. And if they still don't work, you chuck them away. Bin 'em
Hahaha thanks for organising this Amanda! xxx
I hadn't heard that quote before it's made me chuckle! You are no.28 for this draw :)
DeleteI prefer a gel rollerball type pen, in black. And weird as it sounds, I kind of like when they're scratchy and grab the page a bit as I write. But, that's not to say that I don't have several smooth gliding rollerball pens as well.
ReplyDeleteI definitely prefer a rollerball over a scratchy pen Monika ;) You are no.29 for this draw.
DeleteI love ballpoint/roller ball pens for every day writing (especially in my day job where I have to take lots of notes) but for organising I love gel pens because they're a wee pit special xo
ReplyDeleteDo I love a glittery gel pen Stephanie! You are no.30 for this draw :)
DeleteI always love a good fountain pen. I love how the ink flows with my thoughts :)
ReplyDeleteI love that too Beth! You are on.31 for this draw :)
DeleteI like fountain pens - you have to write more slowly and carefully and the results are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYes Gill, I completely agree!
DeleteYou are no.32 for this draw :)
Sharpies! Means I can write on stuff before I put it in the freezer... (container not meat! ha)
ReplyDeleteHaha yes Natalie! You are no.33 for this draw :)
DeleteI am currently using a Pilot V5 in green. It has a lovely fine nib and the green ink is just genius. It is a pleasure to use.
ReplyDeleteI love green Chris, I will have to check that one out! You are no.34 for this draw :)
DeleteTHIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED.
