Happy Friday iCopic Lovers! It’s Sheri here and I’m here with a card for the iCopic Flower Challenge. Isn’t this a sweetheart of an image from Wild Rose Studio? The stamp is New Baby form Wild Rose Studio and can be found in the iCopic store, right here.

Additional Supplies:

I also wanted to share with you a little tip on how I keep my markers clean and shiny. I just pour a bit of everyday old rubbing alcohol on a cotton ball or a piece of felt and rub the the marker case. The ink comes right off just like magic. 🙂

 That is it for me today! Have a wonderful weekend and thank so much for visiting!

Good Morning iCopic Lovers! It’s Sheri here and today I wanted to share with you my new method of storing my ever growing Copic collection. 

I had outgrown this:

So, after searching and searching the Internet for inspiration, I came up with this and it could not have been any easier to make! In my craft room, I have a large variety of Black and White boxes for storing all of my craft supplies.

All I needed was a trip to my local home improvement store to pick up a length of Vinyl Rain Gutter Downspout.  The nice man at the store cut it in half so that I could fit it into my car.

When I got it home, it was just a matter of finding the right size pieces to cut the vinyl downspout into…and what to cut it with. I ended up using a Dremel and cut them to a length of 5 inches each, although you could certainly use a Utility Saw or Hack Saw. Cutting the vinyl is very easy…but messy. The entire process took less than 20 minutes and the thing that I love most about my new storage system is it’s ability to grow. With each section comfortably holding 25 Copic Sketch Markers, the only thing that limits the amount of storage ability is the size of box that you choose.   

Thank you so much for letting me share my new Copic storage system with you today. 

Hello friends! It’s Sheri and today I want to share with a tutorial for a Center Stair Step Card. It’s really a simple card to make,..it’s just looks a little complicated. 

First of all, you will need to trim a piece of card stock to 11 by 5.5 inches.

Next, place the long edge of the card stock into the paper trimmer, placed at the 1 inch mark. 

Starting at the 1 inch mark cut to the 6.5 inch mark.

Flip the card stock over and repeat.

With a Score board, score at the 1, 2 and 6.5 inch marks up to the cut line. 

Flip the card stock over and repeat.

Now, score at the 5.5 inch mark between the cut lines.

Fold the score lines…..

and have fun decorating!

For my card, I used the adorable Explore Tilda along with the Walking Cat.

Hi there friends! It’s Sheri here and I have tons to share with you for this Tuesday Tips and Tricks! First off, I have a Heart Box I created for our Heart Challenge. After hunting all over the internet for a tutorial, I finally settled on this one. I fiddled with it a bit, die cut the heart shapes on my Cricut and came up with this. I colored Tilda with Flowers and added her to the top of the box, along with bunches of embellishments to really make the box Valentine-y! 😉

I ‘m also excited to share with you my Copic Journal. Recently, I came across Brenda’s gorgeous journal, which led me to the download for the journal here. I knew I had to make one too!

Since it is important to use the paper that you typically stamp on for your journal, I simply printed the pages out on my Cryogen card stock. I divided the pages into quarters and trimmed them to 5 1/2 by 4. They fit wonderfully into a Photo Book  for 4 by 6 inch photographs, that I found at Joanns. 

The first set of pages is where I colored and inventoried all of my markers.

After that, my next few pages are where I have examples of hair.You can add skin combinations here also.

I stamped Tilda with Lace Jeans out repeatedly, cut her out with an oval Nestie, colored her up and  popped her into my journal, where I also noted what combination of Copics I used. 

Next, I’ve colored and listed my favorite Copic combinations

On this page, you can see where I have come across a favorite combination on someone’s project. I noted the markers that they used. This way, I have a shopping list ready to go. 🙂

There is also a section for you to list the Copic marker families.

I love having my marker inventory, my favorite coloring combinations and my wish list at my finger tips. Also, the the design of the photo album allows me to set it up on my craft desk while I’m coloring, which makes it a very handy resource.

That’s it for me today. Thank you so much for sticking with me through my long winded post and I hope you’ll make a Copic Journal for yourself too!
