June 2016 ArtSnacks Unboxing

It's time for another delicious unboxing from ArtSnacks.  

My favorite all time items are this month's. The colors the comprise the magenta Caran D'Ache Fibralo Brush marker  separate and, oh my!, that is delicious. (Blick Affiliate Link) 

The Kuretake No. 7  fine tip brush pen is not too hard, not too soft and just right in terms of width. My Goldilocks brush pen (JetPens link).

I don't know all that much about alcohol markers except that they all work together. More or less pigment, higher and lower quality nibs, refillable or not. I'm not one to judge. And I don't own a single Copic which must be the gold standard. I think this is a rebranding of the Chartpak Marker? Couldn't find it on Blick. Also included this month was a General's Layout pencil and a sweet little notebook (top photo). 

Here's the video. If you watch it on YouTube, do me a solid and give me a thumbs up and subscribe. I'll be announcing the next live stream in the next few days.

OMG the weaving in your journal! Is that washi tape? Paper? It's just beautiful!

Paper! I love paper weaving. Save those leftover strips. It wraps around from the previous page

As a novice at all this, I don't know much about what you receive in these boxes and what or how you use them, but I think they are great! Seems like a great value for the money. Would like to see more of how you use each one and have an explanation telling me if they are waterproof, archival etc etc. Love your videos!

Thanks for commenting, Sharon. I usually do a live stream with more in depth information about the supplies. Many of my videos and blog posts have a lot of the info that you are looking for. If you have a specific question, let me know and I’ll direct you!
