Some Marker Links:
A great write up by Julie on SCS about water-based and Copics (though I think you should consider breaking the no copics on heat-embossing rule, I love em on white embossing. Just let the marker cure (or dry well) & the stickiness goes away.
Faux Copics:
- The Copic look with Bics/Sharpies (video) by Jacquie
- more faux copic goodness--with BIC Mark-It markers (WAY cheaper than Copics) These are gorgeous
Trix with Copics:
- I Like Markers ROCKS
- Copic website (ideas section)
- Debbie rocks the Copics
- Faux watercolour with Copics by Kurtis
- Custom colour mixing by Sharon
- Copic Patterns by Nichole (stunning!)
- Ellen Hutson is brilliant with Copics too: Copic markers on Parchment
- Copics over patterned paper
(lets you erase)
Copic fine brushstroke & gel medium Impasto
(+free digi link list)
Pouncing Copic technique:
(on gesso)
Copics on Microglaze:
Stuff to do with Stampin' Up markers:
- Maria's wicked watercolouring with SU markers tutorial
- Nicole's The Ink Blog has great ideas (scroll down to the "markers" subheading)
- Erin's watercolour with markers
- Emboss SU markers on gesso cardstock
Love your work Mel!!

THANK YOU! It's a great, great design and it can be used in so many ways - background paper, layering/3D, using part of it for a cool elegant border. LOVE IT!
