InkJoy indeed!

If there's one thing I am fussy about it is pens. I don't want to be writing with just any old pen and I have different pens for different purposes. It is important to me to have a pen that suits the purpose, feels good in my hand, and writes like a dream.




Paper Mate InkJoy Pens

When the Paper Mate's people contacted me last week to ask if I would like to try out some of their new pens I jumped at the chance! I've always been a huge fan of the writing action of their classic Kilometrico, but not as satisfied with the way it sits in the hand- it's too skinny to be a truly comfortable pen.

Thankfully, the InkJoy range eliminates that problem! It is a really great little pen, cheap and cheerful with a range of colours to satisfy any pen enthusiast. It glides across the page without leaving messy blobs of ink and is comfortable enough to use when writing even the most arduous 'todo' list.

Paper Mate has been kind enough to provide some of these fantastic pens for a Dear Little House giveaway! The winner will receive a big bunch of Paper Mate's new InkJoy pens, as well as an exclusive sneak preview pack of the new Dear Little House greeting cards which will be available for purchase in the new year.

All you need to do to enter is leave a comment telling me the first thing you would write with your new InkJoy! For bonus entries you can share a link to this giveaway on your facebook/twitter/blog and pop back here and leave a comment to let me know you've shared. Entries close on Wednesday 30th November at Midnight AEDST and will be drawn at random.

You've got to be in it to win it! Also, stay tuned for a great craft activity using these funky new InkJoy pens!

  1. I would write myself a to-do list of everything I want to achieve and experience next year. So much time and no to do list to keep me motivated and on track. Bring on 2012!!

  4. I know exactly what you mean about the papermate kilometrics, the nib is the poifect size but the pen itself is to narrow for a comfy grip. These newbies sound fab! If I win this giveaway the first thing I'll use one for is to write my Christmas cards which I am DETERMINED to get out this year! Nx

  7. hi Nat. like Fiona - I too would have to sneak them away from the kids. (they're getting bigger than me - so outsmarting would work better than wrestling!!)I would draw with them as I've been doing a heap of drawings lately - and I'm really enjoying using pens. I'm liking the Inkjoy colours available - they look like fun.

  8. These look like a lot of fun! Would be great to use for Zentangles, I would probably do a few of those first. The next thing I would probably write with these babies are invitations for our engagement party.

  10. These pens are cute! I would write a post card to one of my dear friends who no longer lives in Sydney. Cute cards are one thing, colourful pens to write in are another ;)

  14. is it weird that i am totally excited about pens? i literally have that on my to do list: buy pens. even though we have about 200 hundred in our house. but you see, my pen taste and my husband's pen taste is completely different.

    the ones above remind me of the coloured ones my friends and i used in high school. i think they were bic but something about the ones above look like they would write really smoothly and soft. i would use them for my blog journal that i carry with me. i need to have good pens to feel inspired when writing down ideas!!

  22. I have journaled for many, many years and always enjoy different inks and pens to mix it up. Also I try to send cards and notes (yes, via Snail Mail) to friends and family for encouragement, special occasions and just because sometimes. I am new to the site but I am really loving it.
