Copic 'Spray' Tutorial

Hi Everyone,

The weather here is cold & wet, so what a wonderful day to sit & 'play'.

I have been asked by several people what I mean when I say 'Copic Sprays' so I thought I would put together some instructions just in case you want to have a play too.

I use these sprays for just about everything, to colour cardstock, flowers, chipboard etc.

I must admit that I like everything to match!!

What you will need:

Mini Mister

Copic '0' blender

Copic Reinkers

Cardstock

Heat Gun

Covered workspace

Well ventilated area

Step 1:

Gather '0', reinkers & mini mister

Step 2:

Filling the 'spray' bottle

I start with filling the mister with 1/3 of '0' blender.

On the reinker bottle you will find small line markers.

I then add 2 or 3 of these markers of each colour to the mister.

Step 3:

The filled 'spray'

Replace the cap & you are ready to spray

Step 4:

Using the 'spray' cover the entire piece of cardstock

Step 5:

Saturate the cardstock with the 'spray'

Step 6:

Heat cardstock using the Heat Gun

(Make sure you are in a well ventilated area)

Allow the puddle of ink to move around & make 'runs'.

Continue adding more 'spray' until you are happy

Step 7:

Finished cardstock

Step 8:

Use the cardstock as you wish

I would love to see your creations using this 'spray' technique.

Until next time
