Never use a sharpie, fine or thick tip, it bleeds and fades easily. I would recommend using a black ball-point pen, because blue ink fades faster. Good luck! {up}

sharpie.

I'd personally suggest black - but you can have them sign in whatever color you'd like.

Whoops! Sorry. :lol: For cards I would recommend a standard sharpie. It doesn't matter what color. It's really your choice whether you use black or blue. It's not like using black over blue, vice versa, would make a card more desirable.
