Copic Island Time Preclass

Welcome to the preclass lesson – all about supplies! If you’ve taken Copic classes here, you may well have the supplies you need…primarily markers and paper! Here’s a picture of the markers to gather up. Remember, as always you can substitute for other colors that are close!

Aside from your favorite Copic paper, you’ll likely want to have 1 sky-colored blue reinker. You’ll learn a cool way to make a sky with puffy clouds, perfect for a great day in the islands! I will be using B21, though others will work; we’ll be trying out some colors you might not be used to for skies, and I dare you to give them a try. (You’re welcome to disagree with them after that!)

• I get my markers and refills from either Ellen Hutson, a crafty retailer, or Blick, an art retailer.
• The paper I use in class is Neenah Cardstock, Solar White:• 25pk or a ream of  250pk
• Then there’s the ubiquitous white pen – my favorite is the Signo UniBall (available at Ellen Hutson, Blick, Amazon) but use what works for you!
• Stamps are not needed for this class, we’ll make backgrounds on a blank piece of paper. There are samples in the lessons that use stamps, and there will be links to those sets if you decide you want it – but none will be needed to get the most out of this class.
