I have only recently found Simply Betty Stamps...they are so cute and definitely different. Especially the new Punky Teens Christmas line. I used Jimmi for today's card along with Mercy's current sketch. I hope you likey! Take a spin over to SBS and grab some funky stamps for yourself! :O)
So, I'm having some issues with a few of the darker colors of my Copics. The olive greens I used for Jimmi's coat above are the latest to do this. It's almost as if the ink is oily. I can't blend it, it just gets pushed around. It's shiny too...hence the strange angle of the photo of my card above. It's VERY frustrating! My friend said that I may need to refill them (even if they don't need it). Unfortunately I don't have any of these refills. GRRRRRRRRRR!!! She said she's never had anything of the sort happen to her...have YOU ever heard of it?

I haven't had your Copic problem, but I love your card. The image is great! I also recently discovered SBS and really love them.

Oh how fun! I love funky, off the wall images. Great card, perfect for a kid. Can't say that I have had that problem with copics but I do have several colors that just do not seem to want to blend. I'll pay more attention next time and see if I get the feeling of oily.
Fabulous card Lelia, even in spite of the Copic probs! So perfect for a teen boy! :)
I have one like that. I tried to fix a streak and it just ruined the whole thing. I bought a refill the other day even though it shouldn't need it yet. Might need a replacement nib too...
Fun card and image! I am too new to copics, but maybe the tip touched something it should not have???

No, I've never heard of that Copic problem before. Are you sure its not your paper?
Great card! What a fun image! The artist certainly knows what teenagers are like!
Super funky and cool! Bautiful coloring Lelia ~jeni :)
Oh Lelia you did an awesome job on this!! I am guessing I got you hooked on these images??? That's okay as you have got me hooked on images too!! I really love what you have done with Jimmi!!
I also have the same problem with soem of my darker colors too. But I do you alot of ink and pile on the color and blend like crazy. I thought maybe it was just me using too much ink.
Hugs:)
