Summer colour – new pens please!

Turn up the heat – it’s time for summer colour

There’s nothing shy about summer – and summer colours are loud and proud!  Bursting with blazing pinks, carnival yellows, tropical blues and ‘knock ‘em dead’ reds…summer’s festival season! And that mood of celebration, carefree days and long summer evenings makes us feel joyful, positive – and often fantastically creative.

Summer also has a softer side too – that peace you experience when the heat of the day gives way to evening or sitting in the shade on a quiet afternoon. It’s a time of year that speaks to our mind, body and soul. 

To celebrate one of our favourite times of year, we’re launching two brand new pen ranges – the Sarasa Clip A calming moment collection and our revolutionary new CLiCKART felt tips. Pens that make you want summer to last forever.

CLiCKART – just click and create!

Zebra’s revolutionary new retractable felt tip pen range – CLiCKART – genuinely is breaking the mould. These 12 new felt tips don’t have caps, and yet – unbelievably – if you click them away when you’ve finished, they won’t dry out for up to a year!*

An innovative new ink formula means that the pens absorb moisture from the atmosphere preventing your felt tip pens from drying out. And, because these pens are capless, if you or your children are notorious for losing lids, the CLiCKART range is a must-have.

Such is the versatility of these pens that CLiCKART can also be blended with water and also used like a watercolour paint!

The 12 light, feel-good colours evoke the essence of summer on the page, with pink, blue and green dominating the palette, plus a gorgeous marigold yellow for all summer-inspired designs.

Our fave CLiCKART summer colour combos

Fun in the sun

Pair CLiCKART marigold with aqua or pale blue and then pick your pink – salmon, peach or cherry. These bold colours celebrate summer at its finest: sunshine; seaside; ice cream; brightly coloured beach towels and umbrellas. 

Dreamy summer evenings

Match the CLiCKART aqua blue with the leaf green and mint green for a calmer summer colour palette. Think big blue skies and lush green grass – perfect picnic weather. A time for relaxing and enjoying the great outdoors. 

 

Stockists

Pick up a set for summer, grab a snack and a notepad – and you’re set! Plus, the durable (and waterproof!) pack design means you can stand it up on its own, whether you’re lounging on a beach blanket or a park bench.

CLiCKART – light colours – is available in a 12-pack clear carrycase from Amazon here.

Also available from:

Turn down the heat and free your imagination

There are two sorts of summer days – the ones that sizzle – and those lovely, languid afternoons where time stands still, and you truly unwind and relax.  Our limited-edition Sarasa Clip 0.5 mm range – ‘A calming moment’ – is inspired by the beauty and stillness of summer’s quieter mood. We’ve taken our popular vintage Sarasa colour palette and created five unique barrel wraps inspired by nature – from beautiful blossom and delicate daisies to graceful grasses. 

‘A calming moment’ Sarasa Clip gel pens are perfect for summer journalling, spontaneous sketches, mindful creative writing, holiday packing lists, or even your summer bucket list. Time to tune out the world, let your pen take over and free your imagination.

Let your true colours shine through this summer

It’s no secret that we feel happier, more centred and more creative in summer. But there is science behind this summer feeling. The simple formula of sunshine and warmth acts as a positive boost to our Vitamin D and happy-hormone serotonin levels. So make the most of nature’s ‘wellbeing weather’! Take time to celebrate yourself, your unique creative talent, and bask in your own radiance. You deserve it!
