I need a fine-tipped white pen... good for writing on cardstock. So far, the ones I have used have been terrible. They have either dried up super fast, or they have absorbed into the paper and been almost non-existent. I would love to hear if anyone has found one that works. So far, the only one I have found is the Galaxy Marker... but it is quite thick.
HELP!!!

I use Uniball Signo at the moment. It takes a bit of practice to get the correct consistency when writing, but so far that's probably one of the best on dark cardstock/paper.
I'd love the try the white sharpie though... unfortunate I've had no luck finding them here in NZ.

I second the Uniball, it's the best!
I have the Sharpie, also, and It's good too, but my fave is the Uniball!

I got all my sharpies at Joanns Craft Store =) I am in love with all of them... but they dont work as well as the uniball (the white one I mean)

I have had serious trouble finding a white pen that works well, I have tried them all! But ....... I just got the Uniball Signo white gel pen and it works brilliantly - I am so excited. This is definitely the one to buy if you want it to work :o)

This is soooo true! You will be addicted. I had my "white pen period" for sure.
I can't find a sharpie thats white yet. Although i'm searching like crazy!!!
I found my white Sharpie in the poster making section of Hobby Lobby. Not in the sbing section. It is kinds like a paint pen, so you might have to ask someone. It come in two sizes as well.

I agree with the uniball signo white pen. Once you get the hang of it, it is great. I love it. Whenever I place an order for them I always order at least 5 of them. I end up loosing them, or I give them to my friends.
I also found the white sharpie in the pant section at Micheals, but dang the package was 14.99 for 3 sharpies, I about fell over because all I wanted was the white one. So I didn't buy it.

yeppers...love the white sharpie, but moreso for thicker stuff--doodling, borders, etc. Have yet to try the Uniball though...I need to get one of those!

I have the uniball & the sharpie... love them both for different reasons...
but with the bazzil cardstock I sometimes get splatter marks because my pen gets caught in the texture... is that just me? probably!
I've also had the color change on me with uniball... i was writing on brown paper and the writing turned pink after it dried... it was a very manly LO too... figures! Maybe i'm just a mess! :-)

nope, happens to me too!

This also happened to me on red cs. But that is the only one. Very weird!
