Copic Backgrounds

Did you know that aside from colouring with your Copics you can stamp with them as well?

Just colour in your stamp as you would if using dye based markers, spritz your cardstock with blender solution or rubbing alcohol and stamp.  The blender solution/alcohol reactivates the ink on your stamp to create the image.

Usually you get a paler image so it is best to use stronger colours that you normally might be used to.

This card background is a bit splotchy looking as it is stamped onto textured cardstock – just the effect I was after.
