Thinking of using them for valentines for my daughter's class and she would need to wright messages on them with a fine tip sharpie. Would it smear?

I'm not certain but I think it might smear the ink. This cardstock also has a very strong scent.

Yes,I have written on them. They are not as wide as a popsicle stick, so the writing will be small.

Yes You can Use a marker, like a sharpie or something with smooth tip just soft enough not to scratch the surface.

My GUESS is NO, they are made for Fabric--which will absorbs the ink and colors. That is however, just a guess. My best advise would be to contact Sharpie customer service. I have found them to be helpful regarding other questions in the past. Try www.sharpie.com/enAU/CustomerService/Pages/ContactUs.aspx

i have not tried to write on them. For my wedding they will be table scatters and flower girl accesories. They are not tiny, but small enough (1.5 to 2 inches wide, maybe?) that it would be difficult to read anything that was written on them. Also, there is more than one color blended into each leaf, which would also make it difficult to read. I'm not sure about the absorbency of the fabric, because i don't know what kind of dye has been used on them, but painting on the numbers would probably work better than regular ink or sharpie. I recommend using these in your flower girl's basket and writing your names/ table numbers on something else.

Hi Catherine... Yes if you use a FINE TIP Sharpie it will work fine. As you are aware they are small pieces so I would suggest having the guests write on the back side. Don B San Diego, CA

I have not. However, I don't think they would be good for that. The tips are ball point and the ink isn't very thick. But idk for sure.

I believe it will. I wrote on mine with a marker and it didn't smear. That's all I call tell you...hope that helps.Greg

I believe so, if you use permanent marker. They are strong and have a normal paper finish that works great to write on. I just don't know how much wear you might be putting them through, though.

They are like markers. They work fine on paper but not glossy paper, they will smear. They did not go through my envelops.

They are basically Sharpies with metallic particles in them...so anything another Sharpie can wrote on, they can also. Sharpies have some limitations, but I do not suspect that chalk boards are one of them...though it sort of defeats the purpose of having an erasable chalk board. If you want it to show very legibly, use the Sharpie Mean streaks instead...as they are like a grease pencil that hardens in time after application...but the mark they leave is not as fine as the metallic ones...so I use both. Most fine line white/metllic markers are not nearly as clear as the other Sharpie colors...just a fact of life.

No. No smears, but that will probably be affected by the type of ink used as well.

IF they are as thin as a pencil or the average Bic pen, yes. If they are thicker than the typical Sharpie marker, then no. Sorry.

Yes. I did but something in between the bag to keep ink from soaking through. I had used iron on and color Sharpie. My kids at the party loved them and they hold up so much better than the paper our plastic favor bags. My own kids reused theirs quite a few times for our trips to the library or video store.

no they don't bleed like other sharpies because the ink is different ... it's like those markers where u have to push to get the ink to make the tip wet and then write ... i would buy a few packs if you are going to use it for something like that though ... they work great, but one of mine didn't work at all out of the 3

Actually, I can answer this as a retired teacher as well as a user of these sheets. Yours is a GREAT idea - yes, sharpies definitely work [I just tested to be certain], you can draw on these and - as we both know - kids love this type of project. I do not know how many students you would have involved but with 2000 labels at your disposal :) it is very cost efficient. Good luck to you with your project and have a wonderful, much deserved summer break! - Sue in NH

Not at all, but they do smear if you don't give them time to dry! I love these pens, but you have to keep in mind they are a wet gel!
