Using Watercolor Pencils + Copic Blender to Color Stamped Images

[LittleThingsMew]

If you dont want to use a copic blender, you can always just a water brush instead.

Oh my I've had the copics blender pen for so long and never really like to use it with my copics colors. I defenatly have to try this out. Thank you

Love the idea..... I have 0 Copics to expensive for me, but I have a hard time with my dye ink and water color pencil blender chewing up my paper and I don't want to buy water color paper because I am not that good and would waste it! I will try alcohol as a blender ;) TFS

Very cute! You have just inspired me to take out my Prisma Color Pencils. I have a box of 120 laying around from my days of Design School. Not sure why I lost my inspiration to color, could have gone away when I lost my Mom. You can find gambol at your local Dick Blick art store or their online store. Anyways, TFS!

You can buy the Gamsol from Inky Antics...that's where I got the stumps and Gamsol! I've had this bottle of Gamsol for about 1 year....it goes a long way!!

[felkatz80]

man ohh man.. i'm jealous!! you did better than i did. i watched the same vid from scrappyhour09..i tried to find gamsol @ michaels but never found it at all the M's here.. i tried the watercolor with miniral spirits (gamsol) from homedepot.. IDK didn't look good. then i tried with primsa scholar color pencils.. hmm idk i think its just me!! LOL ok its me. i'm not good at it.. you did AWESOME!!!

[sweetpo11]

I have been using Prismacolor pencils and gamsol for several months, now, and I love the effects I can get. I find coloring images quite relaxing and a lot of fun.

[GingerCupcakeCards]

@sweetpo11 it is like the most relaxing thing ever. makes me feel like im 6 years old all over again :)

[Jennerator74]

Very cute stamps! I've been experimenting with my prismacolor pencils lately. I could not find "gamsol" but I did find odorless mineral spirits at Michaels. I couldn't se myself getting into copics. I did get the Bic Mark It markers to use and I heard you can use the alcohol blending solution that you can get at Michaels with those as well so I'm looking forward to trying that as well. Thanks for sharing! :D

[scrappyhour09]

hey! Thanks so much for the shout out!=) good idea with the colorless blender too!=) I LOVE those stamps..def gonna check out their site! TFS!=) erin

[GingerCupcakeCards]

@scrappyhour09 you deserve the shout out, it was an awesome idea and i was totally inspired after i saw your vid! :)

[mssoftbrn]

I have the 72 set of prisma colored pencils and the Gamsol.. I love the look it gives also... You will not find Gamsol at Michaels.. but other odorless mineral spirits.. You will find Gamsol at Dick Blick Art supply...

[StampinRN]

Love it!

[LovetoScrap8]

I use color pencils and odorless mineral spirit to color my images, so fun to do !!

But this idea to use a copic blender is so cool, looks great :-) i gonna try it ! thank you for sharing.

[mommytomario]

hi there its Deb i just ordered those stamps..thank you so much they are so cute i also ordered tea party..what great prices they have and the shipping was only 4.00 can't beat that...thanks...hugs Deb

[mommytomario]

Ok love the stamps...which company are they...really good coloring..and what is gamsol? TFS..hugs Deb

[GingerCupcakeCards]

@mommytomario I put the link to the stamps in the info for the video, they're by My Cute Stamps- aren't they adorable?! Gamsol is a a brand of odorless mineral spirit- so if you can find odorless mineral spirits, any brand will work :)

[LovemyElla]

Ohh I just saw you use Watercolor Pencils, I use reg colored pencils, works good with those too. 

[GingerCupcakeCards]

@LovemyElla yeah, ive heard that regular prisma's work great with the gamsol. im so excited to try! watercolor pencils were all i had sitting around....but they work great!

[LovemyElla]

I use this all the time!!! its soo fun, make sure you get a paper pencil where it looks like a pencil butis all paper to dip in the gamisal (sp?) Sooo much cheaper than copics!!
