What kind of markers can I use for scrapbooking?
I know there are special markers you can buy, but they are just too expensive. Is there a kind of marker that I can afford that will show up on a special paper for scrapbooking? Thanks in advance!

1. I use mostly Sharpies...I especially like the metallic ones.2. I use the Creative Memories pens and markers (and not just because I'm a consultant) they are photo safe, permanent, and come in a variety of colors including metallics.
Here is my website, you should take a look:

3. sakura is good, though they are a couple dollars each you just need one or two colors to start out, or just use black. they are acid free which is the point with the scrapbooking.
4. just make sure what ever u choose is acid free. it will not harm photo. you can even print something on your computer
5. There are a couple that are pretty affordable. Here are a few that are pretty affordable.
Marvy -Le Plume ( Normally found at Michael's about 2.00 a piece ) Dual tipped
Gelly Roll pens they have a great look and fill in well / some have glitter and some are metallic ( Normally found at Michale's,Hobby Lobby, and Joann's) about 1.00 each or 8.00 for a pack
Galaxy Markers- they are great and also write /color in perfectly on dark paper. ( Found at same stores above) typically about 2.00 each and a pack is between 8-15.
Souffle pens - They are puffy ink and fill in great, add nice texture and are 15.99 for a pack of 8
Glitter Gems Markers - 1.00 from the Dollar Tree ( Same makers as the Galaxy Markers)
Sometimes you can find the Galaxy Markers at the Dollar Tree also.
