Hi! Today it's my turn for Tuesday Tips and Tricks over at the iCopic Blog! Make sure you click on over there and check out the past tips so you don't miss any! Today I'm sharing my favorite trick - Copics and ribbon. have you ever searched high and low for that PERFECT color of ribbon? Search no more...make your own! Did you know that you can have 350 different colors of ribbon?? Yes - by coloring white ribbon with Copic Markers!
I started today with my three favorite colors for Spring...Pink, Blue and Chartreuse...and some plain white grosgrain and some black and white gingham ribbons...
Color directly onto your ribbon and voila! It's magic!
With the plain white ribbon you can get a little wild and crazy...stripes, dots, blending colors together. The only thing stopping ya is your imagination! Have fun and play with it! Make that gorgeous dark teal blue ribbon for your card...or blend all the colors of the rainbow in a tie dye effect! Couldn't be more fun!
I just saw this tip on the icopic blog yesterday and here I am at your blog today for the hop!! Your coloring is absolutely fabulous!!
