I heard a story about a lady, a pen and paper addict (like me), she used to go to specialty paper stores to buy 8.5" by 11" black paper in bulk, and then cut it up into 3"x 3"s

They are fun as long as you have the right pens

I also got her a bright gel pen to use with them.

I got some cute gel pens to go with them :)

These are great if you like using metallic pens.

Also, my husband has poor eyesight and loves these for notes (using a white pen) - much easier for him to see!

Works well with Uni Ball Signo Broad Gel white pen.
