Sorry Nell, I can't help you with the pens. I'm a strictly computer journalling girl. My own hand writing is crap

From memory though the girls at the scrap shop said that all ink is acid free. It's just that once they put a label on a pen saying it's acid free people will pay twice the $$ for it, kwim?

I think that Creative Memories have their own pens though. Also I brought a great big pack of coloured normal and gel pens from Big W for around $10. I think theres around 40 pens in it and it says on the back of the pack that they are acid free and idea for scrapping. Really you just need to know that the ink is going to stand the test of time and not fade away to nothing in 50 years time when you can't remember or aren't around to tell the story behind the picture.


Take care
Trish
