Have you ever stamped on a planner page and experienced the disappointment of ink bleeding through to the back? It's the worst. I have carefully curated a collection of planner-friendly inks and I'm here today to show you my favorites and weed out some that aren't quite right for planner stamping. Keep in mind, I'm approaching this with the mindset of coordinating with my favorite 6 mildliner marker colors, so I'm specifically sharing my "mildliner match-ups". I think narrowing down to a few colors actually simplifies the decision making when I'm creating my pages, but of course there are other inks that would be planner-friendly, in different colors than this. My list is not exhaustive, just the list that works for me! :)
