Bubble Lettering Markers

Cut Out Bubble Letter Another way to produce bubble letters is to cut the rectangular or sloping rectangular shapes of the bubble letter frames out of colored sheets of gummed paper and then simply take a pair of scissors and round off the corners on each letter. This gives a very pleasing effect and also allows you to set out the bubble lettering not only on a horizontal line but also on a curved one. This is very difficult to accomplish well without the shapes to position. This way you can see the overall effect before you commit yourself to sticking down the gummed letters on the board or on the paper.

Two distinctive types of bubble lettering markers are available as felt tip markers. Spirit-based pens are sometimes called "Permanent Markers" and have a distinctive petroleum type of smell. These leave a brighter color line, but also tend to soak into the surrounding paper more than the other kind, the water-based felt tip markers.

White Board Markers Water-based bubble letter markers do have certain advantages especially when used in children's groups. I would not personally recommend felt tip markers of any kind with those under five, but with older ones the water-based pens can be washed off hands and clothes more easily! They are usually non-toxic so are quite safe. Another big advantage of some water-based bubble letter markers is that they can be topped up with special inks obtainable from a large stationers. With a little care, felt tip markers can last for years without needing to be replaced.
