Copic Markers and a Giveaway!

I'm addicted to Copic markers...they are great and I can't stop buying them!  I love Jennifer McGuire's blog post from today.  She did a great job explaining what Copic markers are, the different types, how to use them, and where to get them.  It made me want to organize my stash and buy more!  But I will wait.  I signed up for a Copic Techniques class for beginners.  It will be on March 13th in Anaheim Hills.  I will make myself wait till after that class to buy more...

I was inspired today to take stock of what I have now that I have more information about blending and buying markers within the same color groups and numbers.  I downloaded a color chart from here and filled it out.  This what I have so far...
I have a lot of blank spots.  It makes me want to fill them!  Again...patience and restraint...  I bought some markers at the Ontario Scrapobok Expo last Fall and Jonas gave me a set for Christmas.  Turns out I have two duplicates.  So I'm doing a giveaway.  I will be giving away these two Copic Ciao markers (these have never been used):
It's YR04 Chrome Orange and C7 Cool Grey.  I'm also going to throw in a Alcohol Ink Applicator ...

and a package of Cut N Dry Foam Pad.

Leave a comment here by Midnight PST, Thursday, March 4th telling me what your experience is with this COPIC craze or what it will be...I will randomly pick and announce a winner by Friday noon PST.

Have a great week!

Blessings,

Stamps Giveaway...

I just discovered Etsy.com.  Very cool stuff for sale.  I nearly bought three pairs of earrings that were super cool!  Really had to restrain myself.  I did open an etsy store.  I posted two items for sale...the MEOW and the GRAD2009 chipboard albums.  Click here to check it out at http://ckcustomscrapbooks.etsy.com.

I've decided to join the world of giveaways!  I'll be giving away these cute teddy bear stamps.  To participate in the giveaway, subscribe to this blog and leave a comment telling me about your favorite scrapbooking tool or what's on the top of your scrapbook wish list by this Friday, May 22nd.  I will choose a random winner and will contact you to get shipping information.
