Why Copic?

A Lifetime of Stamping With Copic

• Alcohol Markers in 4 styles

• Easy-to-use Inks

• Rich, vibrant colors

• Smooth coloring & blending

• Refiillable, replaceable tips

• Airbrushing

• Permanent on many surfaces

• Up to 322 colors

Copic ink blends smoothly, without damaging paper or

streaking. Use the markers or inks directly on your favorite

surfaces: metal, ribbon, dried flowers, fabric, glass, leather,

easter eggs and more. For even coverage on unusual

shapes, try airbrushing.

Never before has there been the versatility of an alcohol

ink combined with the easy application of a marker. These

Voeg subtiele bling-accenten toe met Atyou Spica Pennen

• Alcohol markers in 4 variaties

• Gemakkelijk te gebruiken inkten

• Rijke, heldere kleuren

• Streeploos kleuren en mooi mengen

• Navulbare inkt en vervangbare punten

• Mogelijkheid tot airbrushen (officieel niet met de Ciao)

• Permanent op veel ondergronden

• Copic Ciao 144 kleuren

• Niet giftig en na droging zuurvrij

• Lost kopieerinkt niet op

Nooit tevoren was er de combinatie van een alcoholinkt en een marker waarmee deze gemakkelijk op-gebracht kan worden. Deze weinig geurende markers zijn milieuvriendelijk, omdat de marker nagevuld kan worden en de lege navulflesjes te recyclen zijn.Sommige kunstenaars gebruiken dezelfde markers meer dan 20 jaar. Geen enkel ander merk markers geeft een 3 jarige garantie. Koester je markers voor altijd.

Copic inkt mengt probleemloos zonder strepen. Het papier beschadigt niet, zelfs niet als je er meer-dere lagen inkt op aanbrengt. Gebruik de markers of de inkt op je favoriete ondergronden, zoals papier, knoopjes, metaal, lintjes, peel-off’s, gedroogde of papieren bloemen, stof, glas, leer en nog veel meer. Kleur de materialen in met de penseelpunt, probeer airbrushen voor een heel gelijkmatige laag en voor ongewone vormen.n.b. voor een goede dekking op metaal adviseren we de markers met een hoog laatste cijfer (7-9)

Atyou Spica zijn pennen met micro glasstukjes voor een maximale glittering. De inkt is transparant, ideaal voor een subtiel laagje met gekleurde glitters over je project. De pennen bevatten een pigment inkt op waterbasis, zijn niet giftig, zuurvrij is, “archival“kwaliteit. Be-

schikbaar in 13 kleuren waaronder één echte transparante.Met deze pennen kun je twee keer zoveel schrijven of kleuren als met de andere merken glitterpennen. De inkt uit de Spica pennen is onmiddellijk na het aanbrengen droog.

Paper for StampingAlcohol inks will bleed through most paper

stocks, so for best results, color pictures that

will be layered onto other paperstock.

For coloring in a stamped area, your image

will be most vibrant if you stamp onto clean

white or ivory cardstock. Some popular types

are: Classic Crest 80# Solar White by

Neenah, SU! Whisper White, Georgia Pacific

White Cardstock.

• Let all your inks completely dry before coloring with markers.

On some papers this may take a while.

• You can heat-set the ink to speed up the process.

• You can emboss your inks before coloring with Copics.

• Test any new paper or ink you get. Each will react

differently. If one of our suggested inks doesn’t work for

you, try it on a different paper.

• Avoid coloring over large, densly stamped areas.

Coloring Process

Butterfly from Lockhart Stamp Co.

Stamping Inks Since Copic Markers are alcohol based, you’ll want

to avoid coloring in images stamped with solvent

inks like StazOn.

Some of the inks they are compatable with include

Versafine Onyx Black & other colors, Ranger

Adirondack Inks, Tsukineko Brilliance Ink, or

Memories Dye Inkpad. For the most consistent

results try heatsetting your image before coloring.

Areas that are heat embossed will color in nicely, since the

embossing powder protects the ink line from smudging. Test

colored powders to make sure they won’t bleed with the markers.

Flower from Inkadinkado

Markers bleed through most papers, so always color over a

clean scratch paper or other absorbant surface.

For clean, smooth areas color slowly in circles to really saturate

the paper. Make sure all your edges stay “wet”. This helps to

avoid streaking.

If you have a very large area, color it in first with the blender

marker. While the paper is still damp, add your marker over the

top. This will smooth your colors together better.

Many people enjoy coloring with the flexible brush end of Sketch

or Ciao markers. If you prefer a firm tip, you can replace either

end of these markers with an optional Medium Round nib.

Papier om op te stempelen

Stempelinkten

Het inkleuren

Kies voor een helder kleurresultaat glad wit of ivoorkleu-rig papier of karton. Het papier mag de inkt niet teveel uitlaten lopen. Papiersoorten die erg poreus zijn, zoals aquarelpapier zullen veel inkt opzuigen en dat kost teveel inkt. Het beste papier neemt weinig inkt in zich op en geeft je de kans om in de volgende laag inkt de kleuren te mengen. Goed te gebruiken is het papier/karton waar correspondentiekaarten van gemaakt zijn, meerder papierleveranciers hebben soortgelijk papier op A4 –formaat. Test je papier altijd voor je het gaat gebruiken, de kleuren komen op elke soort weer anders over.

N.b. Copic heeft markerpapier, dat een heel goed resultaat geeft en weinig inkt opneemt. De kleuren komen helder over en de inkt is makkelijk te mengen. Dit papier is dun, lijm het na het inkleuren met fotolijm op wit karton en verwerk je stempelafdruk zoals je gewend bent.

• Laat de stempelafdruk goed drogen, op sommige papiersoorten duurt dat een tijdje.• Verwarm de inkt eventueel met de heatingtool.• Je kunt de afdruk ook embossen.• Test elke nieuwe papiersoort, elke soort reageert anders.• Kleur niet over grote, donkere delen van een stempelafdruk.

Bescherm je werkvlak met een restje papier, want de inkt trekt door het papier.Kleur langzaam met een ronddraaiende beweging, zorg dat de aansluitende hoeken vochtig blijven.

Dus niet eerst omlijnen en dan inkleuren. Op deze manier voorkom je strepen.

Als je een groot vlak inkleurt, breng dan eerst een laagje met de blender aan. Op het nog vochtige papier breng je de kleur aan, deze zal nu gelijkmatiger kleuren en mengen.

De meeste mensen werken graag met de flexibele penseelpunt van de Sketch of de Ciao marker. Hiermee kun je zelfs de kleinste deeltjes kleuren. Heb je liever een stevige kleine punt, vervang deze dan door de Medium Round punt.

Copic Markers zijn op alcoholbasis, daarom adviseren we om geen inkt op ba-sis van een oplosmiddel te gebruiken, zoals Stazon. De marker lost de stempel-lijn op. Volgens kenners zijn de best te gebruiken inkten:

Memento: droogt meteen, hoeft niet verwarmd te worden en geeft op bijna alle papiersoorten een mooie afdruk. Brilliance, Versafine, Adirondack, Memories Dye inkt en Palette Hybride inkten zijn ook goed te gebruiken. Laat alle inkten goed drogen voor je gaat kleuren, of verwarm de afdruk met een heatingtool.

Om gemakkelijk te kleuren, zonder dat de inkt over de lijntjes gaat, kun je de stempelafdruk eerst (warm)embossen met embossingpoeder. Test gekleurde poeders vooraf, om zeker van te zijn dat niet reageren met de alcoholinkt.

Basic Coloring Colorless Blender

Basic Blending- Marker on PaperColor evenly with a lighter color then add the

darker color over it. Where the two colors

meet, go over it again with the lighter color,

working the two shades together.

Feathering1.Using the brush on a Sketch or Ciao, color from

one edge of a shape, lifting at the end of each

stroke to leave white on the other side. 2. Feather in

the next color from the opposite direction.

3. Repeat with each color a couple times until your

desired blend is achieved.

Touching Tip to tipFor small areas, touch one marker directly to

the tip of another marker. You can also get a

dark to white effect by adding your color

directly to a blender marker, then coloring.

Palette blendingOn a piece of plastic, draw a spot of color.

Using the color you want to blend with it,

touch the spot, picking up the color, and

apply it like a paintbrush.

For Washed-Out effectsUse the colorless blender over your

colored areas to fade and wash out

your colors.

Kleuren mengen met Copic

Blender Technieken

Basistechniek: mengen met de marker op papier.Kleur het vlak gelijkmatig in met de lichtste kleur, breng de schaduw-kleur aan. Gebruik de eerste kleur om de aanzetlijn te vervagen.

Punt aan puntZet de punt van de lichte kleur tegen de punt van de donkere kleur, neem wat donkere inkt op. Kleur hiermee kleine vlakjes in. Begin op de plaats waar de donkerste schaduw moet zitten. Herhaal dit tot het gewenste resultaat is bereikt. Op de manier is het schaduwen wat subtieler. Je kunt een mooie overloop van donker naar licht krijgen (aquarelachtig) als je op de blenderpunt een kleur opneemt en hier-mee kleurt, je zult maar kleine stukjes tegelijk kunnen verwerken, dus steeds opnieuw kleur opnemen.

De marker met cijfer 0 bevat kleurloze inkt, waarmee veel effecten te bereiken zijn.

“Uitwas”effectenBij gebruik van de blender over gekleurde vlakken, zal de opgebrachte kleur vervagen. Hierdoor ontstaat een verwassen effect. Dit werkt het beste als de opgebrachte kleur nog nat is. Bij het taartje op de foto is goed te zien, dat het blauw en roze overlopen in het wit, hoe meer je de blender gebruikt des te sterker wordt het effect.

MengenDe blender duwt de inkt van zijn plaats, dit kun je gebruiken voor het oplichten van plaatsen in je afbeelding. Gebruik over natte inkt geeft zachte randen, bij gebruik over droge inkt worden de randen scherper. Kleur je per ongeluk iets over de lijn, dan kun je kleur met de blender terugduwen in zijn vlakje.

Kleurstreken naar elkaar toe.1. Gebruik de penseelpunt, kleur vanaf één kant naar het

midden toe, til de punt op aan het eind van de streek.2. Doe hetzelfde vanaf de andere kant met de tweede kleur.3. Herhaal dit tot in het midden de kleuren goed gemengd zijn.

Mengen op een palet.Breng met de penseelpunt inkt aan op een acrylblok of stuk plastic, dit is je palet. (bewaar het na gebruik, want je kunt ook de gedroogde inkt een vol-gende keer weer gebruiken) Neem met de marker in de tweede kleur inkt op van je palet, meng de kleuren en breng ze aan op je afdruk, werk als met een penseel. Met deze techniek kun je met een lichte kleur (0 of 1 op het eind) en een marker met een hoog eindcijfer (7-9) meerdere tussenkleuren maken. Op deze manier kan je afdruk ingekleurd worden met een mooi kleurverloop.

Maak waterdruppelsPlaats de punt van de blender op een ingekleurd vlak dat al droog is, laat hem even staan. De blender duwt de inkt naar de zijkanten, er ontstaat een gebleekt stukje, de waterdruppel.

Unusual PapersGlossy cardstockAlcohol ink backgrounds are easy to make

on glossy papers which keep the ink fluid on

the surface longer so you can move colors

around to get collage effects.

Apply your ink to an applicator or drip

directly onto your surface and dab around to

achieve the look you desire. Adding Colorless Blender solution will

spread the ink as well, perfect for the faux stone look. This effect

also works on acetate and sheet metal.

Colored PencilWhen using colored pencil, lay your marker

color down first, then color over it with your

colored pencil. This will keep your tip from

getting discolored. If you do put pencil down

first, and you get it on your marker tip, quickly

scribble onto scratch paper to get it off your

tip. It won’t ruin your tip, it will just look bad.

WatercolorsCopic Markers and inking pens are waterproof. A common

technique is to color in details with the markers, then use

watercolors for the background. Your markers will not run.

Other MediaWhen in doubt, use the marker first. Avoid going over acrylic

paints, unfired clay, or whiteout- these may discolor the nib. Your

ink will still flow cleanly from the marker, but the tip will look dirty.

VellumA great technique for coloring on translucent materials

is to stamp on one side of the image and then color

from the backside. This will keep your stamped image

from smudging, and it gives a much softer feel to your

colored areas.

Other PapersTest any new paper carefully. Very soft papers,

like watercolor papers will give you rich color,

but will be very hard to blend on since their

fibers are so long. They will suck your marker

dry faster and may bleed as well. Special

color sits on the surface, making it tricky to

you want simply by coloring over it.

stamp and blend on. Colored or patterned

cardstock can be easily toned to the shade

you want simply by coloring over it.

Unusual PapersGlossy cardstockAlcohol ink backgrounds are easy to make

on glossy papers which keep the ink fluid on

the surface longer so you can move colors

around to get collage effects.

Apply your ink to an applicator or drip

directly onto your surface and dab around to

achieve the look you desire. Adding Colorless Blender solution will

spread the ink as well, perfect for the faux stone look. This effect

also works on acetate and sheet metal.

Colored PencilWhen using colored pencil, lay your marker

color down first, then color over it with your

colored pencil. This will keep your tip from

getting discolored. If you do put pencil down

first, and you get it on your marker tip, quickly

scribble onto scratch paper to get it off your

tip. It won’t ruin your tip, it will just look bad.

WatercolorsCopic Markers and inking pens are waterproof. A common

technique is to color in details with the markers, then use

watercolors for the background. Your markers will not run.

Other MediaWhen in doubt, use the marker first. Avoid going over acrylic

paints, unfired clay, or whiteout- these may discolor the nib. Your

ink will still flow cleanly from the marker, but the tip will look dirty.

VellumA great technique for coloring on translucent materials

is to stamp on one side of the image and then color

from the backside. This will keep your stamped image

from smudging, and it gives a much softer feel to your

colored areas.

Other PapersTest any new paper carefully. Very soft papers,

like watercolor papers will give you rich color,

but will be very hard to blend on since their

fibers are so long. They will suck your marker

dry faster and may bleed as well. Special

Bijzondere papiersoorten

Copic in combinatie met andere kleurmaterialen.

KleurpotlodenKleur eerst met Copic markers en daarna met kleurpotloden, dit be-schermt je markers en houdt de penseelpunt schoon. Mocht je toch met de marker over een met kleurpotlood gekleurd vlak gaan, maak dan de punt meteen schoon op een restje papier. De punt zal er vreemd gekleurd uitzien, maar is wel bruikbaar.

Aquarelpotloden.Copic markers zijn watervast. Daarom zijn ze heel goed te combineren met aquarelverf/potloden. Een veel gebruikte techniek is het inkleuren van de afbeelding met Copic markers, daarna de achtergrond een kleur geven met aquarelpotloden.

Andere media.Gebruik in geval van twijfel altijd eerst de markers, dan het andere product. Ga niet met de marker over acrylverf of ongebakken klei deze kunnen je penseelpunt verkleuren. De inkt zal nog wel uit de punt komen, maar deze ziet er vies uit.

Glanskarton Op glanskarton blijft de inkt lang vloeibaar, daardoor kun je de kleuren langer tijd bewegen en in elkaar laten lopen. Hierdoor zijn collage-effecten te maken. Voor deze effecten zijn de Various inktflesjes ideaal.

Breng de inkt aan op een applicator of druppel deze direct op het glanskarton. Dep de inkt net zolang tot je het gewenste effect heb verkregen. Door het aanbrengen van enkele druppels blendervloeistof zullen de kleuren nog verder verlopen, perfect voor het Faux Stone-effect. Ook mooi in combinatie met Gold Leaf pennen. Ook toepasbaar op transparante sheets, acryl en metaal-sheets.

Ander papiersoortenTest elk nieuw papier voor gebruik. Dessinpapier kan gemakkelijk in de juiste kleur worden gemaakt, door er met de Copic marker over te kleuren.Pons bloemen uit papier met linnenstructuur en kleur ze daarna in met de markers die je in de afbeelding hebt gebruikt, een perfecte kleurcombinatie is mogelijk.

VellumStempel aan een kant van het transparante papier en kleur aan de andere kant, hierdoor blijft de stempelafdruk in tact en ontstaat een zachter kleurresultaat.

N.B. dit is mijn keuze, kleuren die ik graag gebruik voor het inkleuren van mijn stem-pelafdrukken. In deze keuze zitten de stiften uit set 1 en set 2 verwerkt. Die vormen een basis voor je Copic-collectie. Mijn advies: maak je eigen keuzes, kies wel steeds 2 of liever 3 kleuren die goed in elkaar overlopen. (laatste getallen met enkel posities ertussen. B.v. bij 2 kleuren BG10 en BG15, bij 3 kleuren BG10-BG23-BG15). Maak je eigen kleurkaart op het papier waarop je ook je stempels afdrukt. Heel veel plezier bij de keuze van je Copic Markers.
