Art supply shopping usually comes down to how you work: do you need tools to complete a drawing, or do you need a place to keep those tools from scattering across your desk? The four products in this guide split along that line. One is a 12-piece pencil blending kit for colored pencil work, while the other three are cases and organizers for pens, pencils, art supplies, makeup, and travel. The Spectrum Noir kit answers the blending question; the Kipling and Stylish cases answer the storage question.
Quick take
Choose the Spectrum Noir 12-Piece Pencil Blending Kit when blending stumps, an eraser, and a zippered wallet matter more than a pen-case capacity. Choose the Kipling Gitroy Pencil Case for a named-color everyday organizer with a nylon exterior and recycled polyester interior. Choose the Kipling 100 Pens Printed Case when you want a roomy interior with a stated pen capacity. Choose the Stylish 100 Pen Printed Case when specific dimensions, elastic loops, and a portable weight are your top priorities.

Product notes
Spectrum Noir 12-Piece Pencil Blending Kit
For colored pencil sketchers, the Spectrum Noir Accessories 12-Piece Pencil Blending Kit pairs useful tools with a storage wallet. The listed contents include a soft eraser, pencil sharpener, blending stumps, sketch pencils, and a stump sander, all fitting into a zippered black wallet. That makes it the most function-focused choice in this lineup for blending and refining pencil work. One caveat to weigh: the listing says the package was opened even though the kit is described as new and never used, so the photos are worth reviewing before you commit. If you're shopping for a pen case or travel organizer, this kit is not that, but as a blending tool bundle it's a distinct option.
Kipling Gitroy Pencil Case
The Kipling Women's Gitroy Pencil Case is a flexible everyday choice for art supplies, makeup, and travel. It is described with a premium nylon exterior and an eco-friendly recycled polyester interior, and the exterior color is listed as Vip Purple. Attributes include One Size and a gtin, so you get a Kipling case with a named color and a single-size description. If you want a case that is described with a 100-pen capacity, the Kipling 100 Pens Printed Case is the model with that feature. The Gitroy's trade-off: the listed exterior color is Vip Purple, which may not match every bag or kit you already own.
Kipling 100 Pens Printed Case
The Kipling Women's 100 Pens Printed Case is the capacity play in this group. The description says it can fit up to 100 pens or pencils in a roomy interior, making it a sensible pick for anyone with a large collection of writing instruments. The color attribute reads 'Default Title' rather than a standard color name, so the shade is not clear from the listing. If you want a named color like the Gitroy's Vip Purple, that detail is not part of this model's attributes; instead, it leans on the pen-capacity highlight as its main differentiator.
Stylish 100 Pen Printed Case
The Stylish 100 Pen Printed Case is the organizer for anyone who wants details before buying. The description lists a spacious interior with 26 elastic loops, dimensions of 8.25''L x 6''H x 2''D, and a Nylon material note. That level of specification makes it easy to imagine how it will slide into a backpack, tote, or drawer. The trade-off is the printed design: the Color attribute is 'Black Khaki Bl,' and the title says 'Printed Case,' so it will read as a patterned piece rather than a solid-color organizer. If you prefer a clean single tone, the Kipling Gitroy Pencil Case in Vip Purple offers a named single-color option.
Final recommendation by use case
- For blending and refining colored pencil work, the Spectrum Noir Accessories 12-Piece Pencil Blending Kit bundles the eraser, sharpener, blending stumps, sketch pencils, and a zippered wallet.
- For a named-color everyday case, the Kipling Women's Gitroy Pencil Case in Vip Purple combines a nylon exterior with a recycled polyester interior.
- For a roomy Kipling option with a stated capacity, the Kipling Women's 100 Pens Printed Case is described as fitting up to 100 pens or pencils.
- For a structured organizer with loops and dimensions, the Stylish 100 Pen Printed Case is the one with 26 elastic loops and listed measurements.
