Thank u for your sweet calming voice! I haven’t been able to use my copics for a couple years I am ready to plunge back into coloring and card making. So as I have been browsing for the latest coloring tricks I came across this article. I rarely comment to strangers but after listening I had to thank you for giving me the inspirational kick in the pants I needed to pull out my beloved copics. I also will be purchasing some new stamps also had to sell a lot of my cuties but now I can rebuild and this line is amazing! Thank you again and I can wait to listen to another sweet tutorial! !!

Thank you for your kind comment Patti. I am sorry to hear you have not been able to use your copics for awhile. I know I had a stretch when I wasn’t able to either. Diagnosed and hospitalized with Lupus last September and boy was it a ride! I have had days when it is difficult for me too. It it isn’t chest/lung pain….. it’s blurred vision! It’s rough. But I try to make up for it on the good days! LOL Thank you again for your kind comment!
Hugs,
Marie

She reminds me of my doggy. I left him for 4 weeks while on vacation, and he had dreadlocks! No one take care of my baby like I do…anyway, that is very cute. The little blue dots are a cute touch that I wouldn’t have thought of. Nice.

Wonderful video, Marie! Thanks for the tip on thinning out the Copic White! It is very thick! I will try this next time I do eyes!!
Your finished card is beautiful. Love the image!!

Thank you so much Darcy! Yes – stir your white often, and thin with a little water. I often put a small amount on acrylic block and just dip a toothpick ins ager and thin until I like the thickness. It is a water based ink 😀 Also – clean top of your jar often…. It can dry and make it difficult to remove the lid if you don’t! Just a tip from someone who knows! LOL
Hugs,
Marie
