I’m a big paper crafter and I’m not afraid to admit. I love to sit down and do scrapbooking, make my own homemade greeting cards, collages, fancy gift tags, laminated bookmarks, laminated refrigerator magnets and other various paper crafts. On top of that, I’m totally addicted to adult coloring books and when I do my paper crafting, I prefer using gel ink pens!
Let me introduce you to the new Paper Mate InkJoy Gel Pens that dry super quickly, to help prevent smearing. They are available in 14 different vivid colors and can be used for everyday note taking, paper crafting and everything in between.
Product Features:
Quick-drying ink dries 3x faster.
Brilliant gel ink in 14 colors.
Ergonomic comfort grip wraps entire pen.
Available in 0.5mm fine point & 0.7mm medium point.
Gel ink dries quicker for reduced smearing.
I received a complimentary package of these new gel pens and I immediately fell in-love with them! They write and color-in super smoothly, dry incredibly quick and I love the vivid colors that are available. My pack contained all 14 of the new colors including pink, red, brown, black, blue, purple, orange, yellow, lime green, violet, etc. I’m not sure of the official color names, but I’m sure you can see the various shades in the first photo in this product feature.
I decided to test them out when I was working on a page from one of my adult coloring books. When I sit down to color, I do prefer using gel ink pens because I love the look that I can get when using them. In the past, I had to be careful to let the gel ink dry, so that I didn’t smear it. Well, these only take a few seconds to dry, so smearing hasn’t been an issue. I’ve also been using them when I do journaling on my scrapbook pages, when writing sentiments inside my homemade greeting cards, etc. Again, I love the vivid colors and they don’t smear! The ink just glides across the page and the pens fit really comfortably in my hand.
The new Paper Mate InkJoy Gel Pens are available at select retailers nationwide, including Walmart, Target, Staples, Office Dept and on Amazon. They are available in various pack sizes ranging from 1 to 14 ink gel pens with an MSRP of $2.49 to $24.99.
You can purchase them directly from Amazon for a really great price!

I prefer the gel pens since they are easy on the wrist and forearm, for those who have those issues. I bet my mom would love them for her arthritic fingers too. These vivid colors would also be great for laminated bookmarks I like to make as well.
I have a friend who loves adult coloring books. These would make a great present for her.
I love gel ink pens and carry them in my purse because I absolutely refuse to touch pens out in public. I never knew they had all of these colors and that these dry 3x faster. I am so getting these as soon as I can. I won an adult coloring book from your blog but I haven’t started coloring yet because I couldn’t decide if I was going to use crayons, colored pencils or pens well this just answered my question I am so using these pens. That turquoise color is amazing thank you so much for including the picture that you colored that was really helpful for me.
These pens do seem to be better because the colors are so vivid and the ink dries so quickly that it does not smear. I shall want to try and purchase them soon.
