Shelley...how exciting to be apart of this blog hop. The card is beautiful. I love the colors (pink is my favorite) and I love all the detail in the stamp. she is stunning. You are one amazing artist!
That is really cool! I still don't have any Copics, but I might have to pick some up to try this. TFS!

I have never tried copic markers but want to give it a go. You make it look like I could do it. Thanks for sharing!
YAY you made it:) Your blending tutorial really helped me:) And thanks for saying yes and joining the HOP:)
Great technique - I am not one who uses Copics for a few reasons but I am in awe of folks that do.
tfs
Shelley,
Love your card! You're an amazing artist! I hop you had as much fun as I did preparing for this blog hop!
liz :o)
Shelly I am so happy I got to finally see your video I never tried coloring on the stamp images thanks for sharing and great on teaching this
Very inspiring technique..tks for sharing...do you do free shipping to Canada ?
I love the polka dot effect!!!!

Shelley this card is beautiful. Thank you so much for saying that the blender actually removes color...because that is what it does! It has always drove me crazy that they call it a blender. Copics are awesome and I believe that anyone can use them. Hobby Lobby has them on sale every other week, and the week that they are not on sale people can use a 40% coupon! TFS and have a great weekend!:)

I have not used the copic markers yet as I have been afraid of them. I have signed up for a class in 3 weeks. I was glad to hear you recommend a class!
Nice project and love the idea of removing some of the ink for effect.
Thanks for sharing, and thanks for the chance to win!

Thanks for the video! What a fun blog hop! thanks!
You are the first stop on my hop!
I didnt know that copics can be worked that way; Using the light color to soften the darker one. I have prisma colors but I havent used them in years. My coloring techniques have become subpar. lol.
Thanks for sharing.
And I went over to check out your store & my fav is the sentiment stamp.

I love this! I don't have Copics but I love the look. Thanks for sharing. The card is too cute. I will look at your stamps for sale as I follow your blog.
thanks for sharing how to use the copics I must admit to feeling a little intimidated by them
wiglo@sbcglobal.net
Great video. I have used this technique and love it. Another one is to spray denim and press into your coloring to make a cool texture.
This has been a fun hop. I loved your video and your blog is great.
Hugs,
Linda
I love love the look of Copics, but just not in the budget. You did a fantastic job... TFS.
