Handwritten Review – Diamine Sepia
Happy Wednesday!
Today, I’m giving away a full-sized bottle of Diamine Sepia Fountain Pen Ink. I know, I know you were hoping it was the pen. Sorry. #sorrynotsorry
When I learned that Goulet Pens was sending me the Fall 2014 Edition of Edison Nouveau Premiere and a bottle of ink, I suggested that they could also send me a sample of the same ink. “I’ll use the sample and giveaway the bottle.”
I had no idea which ink they were sending, but when I saw that it was sepia, I was so glad I was only getting the sample-sized. Brown inks are a waste on me. Ick.
At least they used to be. And then I fell in love with J Herbin’s Lie de The.
And now this:
Diamine Sepia Ink Swap
Let’s dive in . . .
A beautiful golden brown – with perhaps a bit of red?
No green or gray to muddy things up.
Shading makes me happy.
cRaZy shading makes me crazy happy.
I love this ink. The color is great, saturation is good, there is definitely shading. No bleeding, minimal show through (ghosting).
Water resistance isn’t super-important to me. Good thing, too . . . .
You’ll also note on the full review (click here for full-size version) that the color seems to be less saturated as I get further down on the page. Totally user error. I was having trouble filling from the sample bottle and ended up with ink clinging to the converter. A small twist of the converter got me going again.
Here’s the review I wrote for the pen review. Click here for the full-size.
Bottom line? I’ve added this ink to my wish list so that I can keep my word and give you this full-sized unopened bottle.

Cancerous tissues form inside the mesothelium, which is a protecting lining which covers almost all of the body’s areas.

One other thing I would like to convey is that rather than trying to suit all your online degree tutorials on times that you conclude work (because most people are tired when they get back), try to receive most of your classes on the saturdays and sundays and only a few courses in weekdays, even if it means taking some time away from your saturdays. This is really good because on the week-ends, you will be more rested as well as concentrated for school work. Thanks alot : ) for the different recommendations I have mastered from your blog site.

Good post here. One thing I would like to say is the fact most professional career fields consider the Bachelors Degree like thejust like the entry level requirement for an online college diploma. Even though Associate College diplomas are a great way to begin, completing a person’s Bachelors starts up many entrance doors to various jobs, there are numerous internet Bachelor Course Programs available from institutions like The University of Phoenix, Intercontinental University Online and Kaplan. Another issue is that many brick and mortar institutions offer you Online variations of their diplomas but commonly for a greatly higher amount of money than the companies that specialize in online diploma plans.
In these days of austerity plus relative panic about taking on debt, many people balk up against the idea of utilizing a credit card in order to make purchase of merchandise as well as pay for any gift giving occasion, preferring, instead just to rely on the tried and trusted method of making repayment – hard cash. However, in case you have the cash available to make the purchase in whole, then, paradoxically, that’s the best time for you to use the credit cards for several factors.
