Jumped on the Copic bandwagon…
August 20th, 2008I have been wanting to get Copic Ciao Markers for quite some time since they seem to be the latest craze amongst stampers. I just could not justify spending $3-5 per marker! I thought I would get a starter set or two to see if I liked them from Hannah Stamps. These were the best colors/sets offered for the best prices around so I ordered and they arrived very quickly!
I have to admit I was both excited to jump in and intimidated. I clearly need to practice with these as I am not nearly as comfortable coloring as I am with my prismacolor pencils.I only have 24 colors so I did my best with the coloring and blending and must admit- they are very very nice! I could see how one can become addicted to these! Very vibrant colors and they take to the paper like no marker I have ever used before. Naturally, I have 12 more on their way…yet I still think they cost way too much!
The above images/doodles are the very first time using Copic markers so go easy on me. The images are from my favorite: Rubber Romance divas and the awesome Bombshell Stamps. (love that lil devil!) TFL!

WOW! You don’t need encouraging words, though! I love these colored images! I’ve been looking at copics prices, eeeek, but from what I’ve heard people really like them! Good job. Lovely!
