Inkvent Day 3: Diamine Carousel and Colorverse Erebus Crater

This month we're opening the Teal Diamine Inkvent and Colorverse Colorvent for 2025! We'll swatch them, we'll splat them, we'll do tiny writing samples. Because I'm doing two inkvents at the same time, I will not be inking them in pens because I don't want to fill 50 more pens. LOL.

At the end of the month, I'll pick my top 3 from each calendar, and include them in my January currently inked. Maybe we can do a vote as well, and I'll vote the top inks from each calendar, chosen by you!

I purchased my Inkvent and Colorvent both from Atlas Stationers. You can save 10% off your next order by using code MANDA10 at checkout (some exclusions apply, code expires 12/31/25.) https://www.atlasstationers.com/inksplat

** Titles will be updated to reflect ink names a day or two after the unboxing to help prolong any spoilers. **
