Stamping ON Fabric... Copic Markers ROCK.

Did you know that copics look absolutely A-mazing on fabric.

Our very own DT member Kelly is prepared to blow you away on March 27th at the Funkie Munkie.

Well, until then... here is what she inspired me to do with fabric and my copics! I am trying to talk her into a Copic Munkie Tutorial... leave a comment here or on her blog 'nudging' her in that direction!!

Wanna see my little Boo bear wearing this shirt... stop my personal blog!

March Munkie See, Munkie Do

You ask, I listen... besides I lost my mojo!!

Well, being sick my mojo is a gogo.

I am going to try and retrieve it today!

But Anary said we can not leave out our cherished companion the SPICA glitter pen! She is so right!

So here is a quick table for them... I added a few pages of tables so that the page would not be lonely. 

Eventually I will probably make those into more specific pages and add this to the mini book, but until then... your spicas have a place!!!

THE COPIC ATYOU SPICA GLITTER PENS PAGE ADDITION!

March Madness & Mini Book Addition!

Oh Munkies!!!

I am late on the bundle again this month!

I have a good excuse... my whole family is suffering!

 I have strep, My baby has a bad cold and the Norovirus, and my boys have bronchitis.. ALL in the same weeks here!

Yikes.

So stay tuned for the bundle, until my luck improves this week!

Until then... sink your keyboard into this delicious download!

Some people said, that they enjoyed the mini copic journal.... but wished that it had a place for ALL of their copic markers!

So, without further ado... problem solved!

Copic Marker Inventory Pages! 

These pages can be added to your book or used alone for a purse sized inventory sheet. 

I will add a pic in a while of the pages!

Copic ABS Dominoes!

One thing I LOVE about copic markers, (there are MANY things) is that you can put them on SO many things. My homegirl Kel... said it was HIGH time that I shared some of that knowledge. She has some fun ideas as well, look for her soon at the Munkie.

I Airbrushed and then stamped these Dominoes. Tomorrow I will spray them with 'Super Seal'- remember you NEED sealants that are not reactive with alcohol inks - alcohol FREE.

I am going to add hardware to the back and then add leather cord to make necklaces, my little sister will just LOVE.

February Munkie See, Munkie Do & Hair Combo

Our combos are a lovely PINK set for LOVE day!!! And a bodacious Blonde hair combo to go with our fair skin from last week!!! More to come! As always call the store for munkie prices!!!

Coloring High Contrast

Hello everyone! In this months Copic Club we are focusing on coloring in high contrast. This technique is very popular in the card making word and there are several ways to acheive the whole look. The biggest thing is to have the lighter colors and the dark colors. Here are 2 of the samples we will show in the copic club class meeting.

Images from The Greeting Farm

Images from Paper Makeup Stamps

We will have more samples of this coloring style for you shortly!

Custom Colors With Various Ink Refills

Product Feature & Tutorial by Kel Brown & Rachel Henahan.

Today we are going to have a discussion on how to make custom colors with copic various ink refills!!!

Kel and I are going to bring you a few in this series on Custom colors. Today are 'just the obvious' kind of colors. We will be doing 'outside color family mixes', 'using gray & colorless blender additions' & '3 or more mixes'!!!

Here is the Page download to add to your mini copic journal (found on the sidebar left)

What you will need: A friend!!! If you do not have a friend you will need an empty copic refill bottle.
1. 2 refills of choice
2. Empty copic Marker
3. two disposable cups
4. A tsp if you can not see the markings on the various ink bottles well.

This works very economically if you have a friend to share the love with. Kel bought one ink refill (E25) and I bought the other (E21), in order for us to produce its baby E23. Kel and I both leave the transaction with our own refill of the custom color and our own marker.
We use this method in order to insure precise measurement for consistent color mixing. This is to say, that we will always be able to refill our marker with the SAME color each time. We will not be mixing directly into the empty marker, for this reason. If we were to mix directly into the empty marker we would not be able to SEE our measuring and refilling would never produce the same initial color.

What you should know ahead of time. Each refill is 25ml. A tsp is 5ml. This will aid you in your measurement if you are not able to see the lines on the side of the refill bottle, then measure 2.5 tsps into your cup. If you are able you can pour half of your refill (12.5ml) into the cup. Take the lid and pour spout off your refill and pour half into a cup. Do this with each refill. So that E21 refill is half full, and the cup has the other half - AND E25 is half full and a seperate cup has the other half. SO you have 2 cups and 2 refills all half full.

Now pinch the plastic cup to a point and pour the cup of the E25 ink into the E21 refill bottle. Then take the second cup and pour the E21 ink into the E25 refill bottle. Replace the pour spout. Shake each refill well. Now you have 2 full E23 refills.... one for each of you. If you have no friend. Then pour half of your E25 ink, and half of your E21 ink into an empty various ink refill bottle. You will then have a full E23 refill and half of a E21 and half of E25 refill.

After you have reattached your pour spout and shook your refill well. Remove the chisel tip of your empty marker. Making sure both caps are removed... fill your marker with approx. 2cc's of fluid. Replace the chisel tip. And lay the marker flat with lids off.

You can see here that the ink will distribute and the marker will pressurize properly. Any clean up can be done using a paper towel and hand sanitizer, rubbing alcohol or alcohol based cleaner.

Keep your eyes open for the next installment of Kustom Kolors by Kel. . . (and her friend Rachel). We have some Krazy Kolors in store. (likely next week)

stay tuned.

Hi Copic Lovers. We had NO tutorial last month. So I thought I would give you a download in its place.
This little book is not finished... I need to decorate the front, and color in some pages. But this book has charts for the Funkie Munkie Recommended 36 for each Family.
A removable plastic piece for palette coloring or placing behind pages while coloring.

A pocket page.
And the final pages are the color combo charts from the Ilikemarkers.blogspot blog.

Wanna Make your own? Here are the pages I used for the inside of my book. I hope that they work out for you to print as well. You may have to play with them some.
The pages print 4 per 8.5x11 and cut out to 4.25x5.5 finished size!
