I own countless pens for&#160; scrapbooking, including some of the original Sakura gel pens. Little did I know that the Glaze and Souffle pens are in a league of their own.

I own countless pens for&nbsp; scrapbooking, including some of the original Sakura gel pens. Little did I know that the Glaze and Souffle pens are in a league of their own.</p>
<p>While they work well on paper, it is on non-porous surfaces that Glaze and Souffle really shine. Once dry, they leave a 3-dimensional effect behind. The Glaze effect is glossy and transparent, while Souffle is opaque and puffy. They can both be used to draw free-form on glass, plastic, ceramic and the like. They can also be used in conjunction with Sakura&#8217;s Sticklers, which was where the fun really began for me.</p>
<p>Sticklers are stickers with raised outlines and empty gaps in the middle. Use Glaze pens to give a painted-glass effect or Souffle to make an opaque decoration. Combine the two pens for a unique look. These pens are an easy way to &#8220;paint&#8221; for those of us who are less artistic.</p>
