Sami’s Christmas Essentials List

Written by Samantha Peyton. Posted in Uncategorized

Hey everyone! Happy Friday!!

Samantha here, and today I am going to share with you my top 10 Favorite Christmas items available here at iCopic. There is still a little time left to stock up and get those Christmas cards done. And hey, what’s wrong with getting some supplies and getting a head start on next year?

There are just so many gorgeous stamps available in the iCopic store and I wanted to share with you some of my favorite ones for Christmas.

So here you have it. . . Sami’s Christmas Essentials list:

1. Whiff of Joy, Penguin’s First Snow stamp
How adorable is this little guy?! I think he is just the cutest little darling.

2. CC Designs, Dazzle M Nightly stamp
CC Designs have some of the most adorable snowman stamps! This is just one of many of their cute little guys. Don’t ya just love his smile?

3. Prima Jewels
There are so many wonderful adhesive jewels available in the iCopic store. They would be so lovely on a Christmas card (and you can use them anytime since they come in all sorts of colors).

4. SP and Company, Falling Snow Stamp Set
Yes, I am the owner, but this is one of my absolute favorite go-to Christmas sets. I can’t even tell you how many times these snow mounds have come in handy. I use them all the time for my Christmas cards. They measure more than 5.5inches across so they can be used across an entire standard card base.

5. Stampavie, Alex in Snow with Puppies stamp
This is one of many gorgeous Christmas themed stamps from Stampavie that are available at iCopic. This one is one of my faves because of the puppies 🙂

6. Wild Rose Studio, Mia with Sammy stamp
Too cute for words!!

7.  Gorjuss, The Bear stamp set
I think this image is just so heartwarming. I just love that darling polar bear.

8.  La-La Land, Angel Marci stamp
She’s so pretty! I can just imagine here colored in with soft Yellow Copics and then decorated with an AtYou Spica glitter pen.

9. Crafter’s Companion, A Winter’s Tale stamp set
I loved Peter the Rabbit as a little girl and so this stamp set just warms my heart. These images are just so detailed and nice looking. I can see these little rabbits being used for so many things. My favorite ones are the the two near the middle, where the one rabbit is throwing a snowball at the other one. So cute!

10.  And how about some great Copic colors for Christmas. .. here are some of my faves:

  • Reds: R24, R27, and R29
  • Blues for Snow: B0000, B000, B00, and B01
  • Also snow: BG0000, BG000, and BG11
  • Great holiday greens: G14, G16, G17, and G19

Now tell me, what is on YOUR top 10 List of iCopic supplies? What are you hoping Santa will bring you from the iCopic Store?

I don’t know about Santa, but my husband is getting a link to this list 🙂

Are you surprised that there is no Copic project for today? Actually, I have quite a few projects to share with you. I have been working on a very special blog series on my own blog titled “Sami’s 12 Days of Copic Christmas”! I will be sharing those projects with you here in the coming days.  But I want to share my Stipple Technique video with you today:

Ice-Beary Glittery Cuteness

Written by Samantha Peyton. Posted in Uncategorized

Hey everyone!! Samantha here!  I have been having so much fun playing with my new Whiff of Joy stamps and I have a new project for you today!

Here’s the finished card:

Card details:

  • I have been trying lately to step outside of my “comfort zone” a bit and make some different sized cards. This one is a long card.
  • The bear image is from Whiff of Joy, called Ice-Beary Greetings.
  • I colored him in with the following Copics from iCopic.com:
    • For the fur: E23, E25, E27, E29
    • For the scarf and gloves: BG02, BG05, BG07, BG09
    • For the snow (and a little shadow around the bear): BG10, BG11
    • For his ears: R11 
    • The sentiment is stamped in Walnut Stain Distress Ink from Ranger.
    • I inked up the edges of the sentiment die cut using the Tim Holtz Ink Applicator Tool  so it would match my card better. 
    • The patterned paper is from the Let it Snow Paper Pad from Dovecraft. This paper has gorgeous glitter on it (the good kind of glitter paper, where the glitter is sealed in and doesn’t get all over everything!!). This pad it actually mat sized, 4.5 X6.5inches. I actually pulled my color combo from this paper. 
    SAMI’s COLORING TIP: Small Strokes
    When creating fur, sometimes you WANT to leave the ink strokes un-blended. Add a bunch of smaller brush tip strokes. Let them stay all uneven and rough looking. I wanted my little bear to look furry and full of texture, so creating a bunch of little strokes with my Copics let me pull it off.
