I think what I love most about this currently inked is that you broke out of your usual rules and layout and just went with what felt right! That's a huge win in my books. All those combinations look like so much fun and I can't wait to hear your final thoughts.

Fun. Still afraid of shimmers, but love to decorate with them. Surprising how well they work in fines and extra fines!

Such a treat on a Saturday to wake up to a new Karina “Currently Inked” video.

That Arabian Nights Koi is so tempting to me!

Love love loveeeee this video. These inks are gorgeous.

My first ink from Birmingham Pen Company arrived today! I purchased Sugar Kelp, and it is gorgeous in my opinion! In the swatch it even has a subtle emerald green sheen. Your inks are gorgeous in this video! I will watch again, because I am getting ready to go to work. Thank you! Lisa

I love this format. Awesome parings. I am definitely adopting.

Love all your choices!! I like the format as well.

Hi Karyna, lovely colors, some great shimmer and sheening! I had to giggle every time you mention „another shimmer ink"- because I don't use shimmer inks. And so this was very satisfying for me to watch and see all these inks in pens in action 😅

Beautiful ink and pen choices! I’ve been wanting to explore more shimmer inks lately.

Love love love seeing people use the tromso pen since I wasn't able to get my hands on it before it sold out! I will live vicariously thru you 😅

Love all your colors this month!

once again gorgeous colours

Good afternoon Karyna!! Another great video. One of the stand out combinations is the Laban and Dracula. It just works with the look of the pen and the name of the ink. I’m not a fan of pink inks but the van diemans August is not too bad at all. The aquapetra and Diamine Rainbow is another excellent combination. I really like the lights of Niagara ink. It was a good choice for the pastel colors of the pen. I’m happy to hear you are enjoying the Model 31. I have really been enjoying that pen as well. I like your pen and ink combination there as well. The neutron star is one heck of an ink. I’m curious to how reading pages written with that ink will do since it’s a high sheen ink which as you know I have to try and avoid usually. But a sample might be worth a try. Have an amazing day!!

I like the different format. I borrowed it from Lily back in May; always looking for new formats to spice things up. Beautiful line-up!

Love that Nahvalur Tromsø! 😍🥰❤️ Too bad I missed that one, but maybe that was before my FP interest got sparked. I already have Bah Humbug and Rainbows End so now I just need some Tranquility. 🤗💜

The speed at which I bought that Leonardo Furore Aquapetra 🤣...this pen game is not for the weak.

Gosh, I couldn’t decide which was my favorite because they’re all so pretty! Thanks for sharing!

I've got Sailor Ink Studio 273 and Diamine Tranquility currently inked, and I just ran out of Diamine Sugar Snap in a pen. We're definitely on the same page this month! Love all your swatches- I think I need to use Rainbows End soon.

I don’t really seek out shimmer inks, but I just had to add BPC Neutron Star to the list because it is just so stunning!

great collection thanks for sharing

OMG I love this palette! I lover shimmer inks but have had various degree of success despite the fact I usually use M, B & Stub nibs. To see your XF and F display them in such a way I have to wonder. Have all of these been tweaked by a nibmeister? I have a Nahvalur Nautilus in B and it is quite dry compared to your Nahvalur Voyage in F!

When I’ve used shimmer, typically only in a Benu M nib. Therefore I’ve also quarantined the converter. I feel intimidated to use shimmer in my other pens but great to see your success. I don’t even like to clean shimmer pens alongside others. I would need a whole system to keep things separated. Not sure where this fear is coming from. 😂

I really like this format and really loving those speedball nibs! Then again, all your formats are so well thought out. I'm definitely taking notes! 😄 These pairings are all pretty spectacular but my favorites are definitely Dracula (which I have a bottle of), Bah Humbug & Persephone which I want to get bottles of! 😍 I'm always amazed at how beautiful your writing looks within that small grid! I take up 2-3 spaces for your one so mine would just look like a blob 😂 which is probably why I'm a or girl.😏 Oooh also love the way the SIS #273 looks and what a great match to that gorgeous Silverburl Strata Quartz. Such a lovely pen as are your swatches as usual. Cheers! 😊

Love sugar snap

After watching and reading a lot of reviews on the Bah Humbug, I ordered a bottle. Say down to watch this this morning and it's the first ink! It's helped to confirm I made a good choice.🎉 I'm still undecided about the Rainbows End though. Ive seen lots of reviews but i need a sample before I'm sure. Or, I just go full YOLO and get it.

Gorgeous combinations…… I’m one of the scared of shimmer people….. I have a few samples but have never put them in a pen…. Maybe I should go for it in my medium nibs 🤪

So ironic, just as you were "expelling" your Pelikan, i was doing the same thing to my Nauvhlur(sp) Original Plus. The stub nib keeps getting clogged and I have to pump it to get it to write. Just ordered a bottle of Sugar Snap. I gave up waiting for someone to offer me a sample. Loving the Deep Pine, What is it about green inks?????

Hi Karyna, I recently started my fountain pen obsession 😂 and love watching your channel. Thank you for sharing the content!!! I wanted to ask; is there an ink trading network or place online I can look at. Since, I just started my obsession not so long ago. I have been buying bottles of ink and sometimes don’t like the end color.

Hey 👋🏼 Could I just ask if you know the Diamine Rainbows end is the purple edition? I believe that one was in the 2023 inkvent calendar? I’m looking online for it as it’s sooooo beautiful 💜 however I’m the uk, the ink swatch they have next to a bottle of the ink is just a very pale purple ?… so I’m thinking 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤣 maybe some differences here? Thanks so much 💜💜💜

“Nahvalur” is still pronounced “nar-wall”.
