In this guide, we’ll be exploring everything you need to know about alcohol markers along with the new Cottage Garden Alcohol Marker Set N!

What Are Alcohol-Based Markers and Why Choose Them?

There are plenty of marker types out there, but what makes artist alcohol markers so special? 

As the name suggests, these are alcohol-based and can be used for various crafting projects, whether you’re working on calligraphy, drawing, or making handmade cards. These markers also tend to bleed, so they’re best for use on thicker paper, like cardstock. 

Every crafter should have their own set of alcohol markers since they are versatile, great for executing different coloring techniques, and the high-quality ones also have a bunch of additional features. More on that in the coming section!

Best for Blending

Wondering how you can use alcohol marker art on handmade cards and other crafting projects? The limit truly depends on your imagination, but color blending is a great way to start.
