I am so happy!

Well Steph, I did it look! I finally took the plunge and bought some Copics. So glad I have I love them, although I am going to need more doh! but I will get some of the round ones too half the price of these lol

I haven't got very many as yet (but they are pricey) I have to say though I love the result. I will post my first card later but I wanted to have a little chat about them first.

After I had made my first card using copics I wanted to show you the difference. A couple of days ago I coloured in the image on the right with Whisper pens I didn't like the end result. On the left is the same image using Copic pens, I feel it looks so professional and very pleased with the result I think it is not so much skill (although you do need a little skill) it's there are so many shades of one colour so you can graduate your shades and get a professional look to you image. Yes they are expensive but you can now also buy some others with less in in at half the price so I will be topping up with some of these too but I do like the sketcher version as well as having more ink they are a nice shape to hold (but that's just my personal opinion) hope you come back and have a look at my first card. Thank you for looking. Love Dawn xx

Oh Dawn, I know just how thrilled you are with your Copics - when I got home today, sitting on my desk was a big brown bag - yes I got Copics as well (140 of them - not the posh ones like you, the Ciao's but still fabby).

My lovely hubby bought them for me because I was ranting about them and moaning about my PM's.

So guess what we will both be doing theis wekend ?
