can’t really tell you what I have done but I have not STOPPED whatever it was that I was doing (note to self, see where time goes during the day)…
So it seems that da sistahs liked our tutorial on Friday so we may have to repeat it *winks*.. So I have been thinking very long and hard about DA COPIC SKETCH MARKERS… and I love them so much.. and ME + LOVING SOMETHING= DISASTER…LOL. Soooo I have made a decision. I will be taking special orders on copics. Nicky and I have made a list of the “54 that we adore”… LOL (cute name, no? THANK YOU KRISTIE!!!).. So… this is the scoop. The colours we have chosen, in our humble opinion (humble.. WHUSS DAT?) are from different necessary colour ranges, minimum of 2-3 of each color chosen to allow for blending and basically a comprehensive set where it doesn’t make you cry for more.. (I have cried and cried until finally I accumulated over 250 sketch markers.. YES I AM NUTS).. the colours chosen are blendable and BEEEE-UUUUUUUU-TI-FULLLLLL and pretty much foolproof once equipped with the proper tools and lessons. We will be focusing some classes in the BOOtique on Copics and will try to teach online as well and share the love. Ok this is SO not important BUTTTTTT I have also found THE PERFECT CASE to house 48 copics.. OMG.. IT IS PHENOM and CUTE and PINK and LUSCIOUS and AMAZING and STUNNING and I LOVE IT and and and… I will post pictures tomorrow and it will be up for sale tomorrow.
Now, I will not post the copics/price online.. it will be a special order only so bear with me and should you have any questions at all, PLEASE don’t hesitate to call me or email me… I am trying to gauge demand so please email me or comment on the blog to let me know if you would be interested in our very exclusive bella-esque list
Mwah to da sistahs who love alcohol
alcohol markers, DAT IS
Em
I think this could be good for me. I have been really wanting to try my hand at copics. Depending on price, I could be interested. Are we talking 100’s lol
Same with me. I am interested, but it depends on the price.

Hi Em ~~ I think your Copic proposal is wonderful; about time our Canadian companies carry them 🙂
My question: Would we have to purchase the entire **54 We Adore** or could we pick and chose on an individual basis? My only ‘worry’ would be that some people already have a few Copics, thus, colours may be duplicated//purchased twice. For me, I have approx. 35 colours just picked from a variety of requirements and likes….but I still want SOooo many more Copic colours and shades.
Copics are a **DREAM** and I’m so tickled pink that you are finally going to carry them 😉
Count me in. I’m interested in comparing your list with the 36 I already have and completing my set with your recommendations. I don’t have 3 shades of one colour and hence don’t blend but am willing to learn. Classes I am super super interested in and since the Bootique is 3 hours away for me – online teaching would be awesome. Can’t wait to see the case.
I would love this. When, where and how much?????????????????????
Hi Em…I am interested too. I already have a stash of Copics, but am looking to add more and would LOVE to order from a Canadian supplier! I agree with the other poster though that some of us may already have some of the “54 we adore” (great name BTW)…so if there’s a way to work around that it would be fab.
I can’t wait to see the case…I’m sure it will be DELISH..you know I’m a pink lover!
This might call for another drive to da hood for my Emmy and I! LOL
I have wanted to try Copics for a long time. The fact that they are close in each color for blending is a great idea for the first time purchase. Online teaching is a good idea since I live a good distance away. Can’t wait to see the colors.
I am definitely interested…price will tell!
Hi Em… I am also very interested. I would love to buy Canadian and avoid potential duty charges. I already have some colours, so I would like to know how to work that out with the *54 that we adore*.
And I think that you will have to do a cross-country tutorial (out of a motorhome?!?!?!) so that all of us west of the Rockies can feel the bella luv 😉
I was inspired by your work to buy and try Copic markers. I love them, but am a real newbie and would appreciate any type of tutorial. I have about a dozen, so would love to know which 54 YOU adore!
You know I love what you love!!
hmmmmmmmmmmmm do i tell DH they cost $9.95 like everything else that comes home from your store? 🙂 …. lol….. ok never mind sign me up for them 🙂 they are a must 🙂
I am interested in something like this. I currently have copics and I like them and would like to add some more to my collection. I need the help of an expert I don’t know which colors to choose. So this sounds like a gem. Are them ciaos, sketch, or original. Like others I am also curious about the price before committing to purchase. Love the idea!
awesome! I love copics
Hello Em! I love the idea of the copics. I own over 60 of the markers and would love to create more color blends. Hopefully you will offer them on an individual basis.
Thanks!
Gay
The sistahs who love alcohol?! You know you’re speaking my language!!! : ) And if I didn’t already have a zillion Copic Sketches (I -heart- the Sketches! good for you for not bowing to the Ciaos!!! hee hee. Copic humor there…) you know I’d get ’em from you. I am needing another storage thingy, though, so I’ll be watchin with interest.
And the 54 that we adore?! Tooo cute!!!
Em, you can count me in (depending on price and shipping),
ok – you can count me in. Can you tell I have willpower (not!!!!!). Love what you do and love the fact you ship to me in Malaysia even more. Thanks for everything you do. Mwah
I want the list so I can compare, you always have the best taste!!!
Hey Em! I am VERY interested. I have been seeing everyone’s creations with Copics….and have been very jealous!
If they are hand picked by you, they must be great!
Me..Me..Me!!! I would love a tutorial on these so I can learn the blending techniques. Right now I am using colored pencils….so I am really Excited!! Can’t wait to see the storage. 🙂 Sounds cute
Copics, Yea! I have been wanting to invest in Copics for a long time now. The huge color selection is a bit intimidating, so the 54 sounds great! As for storage, we can never go wrong with pink!!
I would be interested but price will matter!
I would be interested in the copics. I haven’t bought any yet because I just didn’t know where to start but the 54 you adore sounds perfect 🙂
Ciao’! I too am an alcoholic, (marker type), and am interested in the fabulosity of this alcohol proposal! I would like to know the price so that I may devise a strategy to convince my sweet wonderful awesome fabulous gorgeous, (did I mention hot) husband that they are a necessity to this hobbyist stamper, scrapper, blah blah blah. Please email me the price of this fabulous set, I am dying to know, kno?!
I am definately interested. I’ve been drueling (did I spell that right?) over them for a while and pondering the investment. I would love to know the price of the set and the case too! Pink is my favorite color! And I’m hoping there is some lime green in the set too! : )
Em…I am interested as well, but like so many others, price will be a determining factor. Will there be duty charges in shipping to the US? I’ve not noticed duty on the bellas. I’ve never used copics, so an online tutorial would be wonderful :).
I’m interested if the price is right!
Oooh – I wanna know more too!! I have NONE at the moment. However, my birthday was yesterday and I did ask my mom for a smaller set…so we’ll see this weekend if I go from NONE to some!! Either way, I want to know MORE MORE MORE about the 54 you adore!! Heehee!
I am interested. I love my copics that I own. 🙂
Thank you for offering. I am interested, but it depends on the price.
As is the general consensus….I, too would be interested…but am not quite ready to fork over big $$$$…..still gotta eat, drive and live…if you know what I mean….
hmmm Em do you know how dangerous Copics and Bellas for me are.. those are my addictions.. I couldn’t get some of the colors I’d wanted and I got my friend who lives in Singapore to get them for me.. TRUE STORY.. so you know I have issues.. OH my… I only have 70 or so Copics.. of course I need more.. Will you be posting the colors you’ll be offering on your special order?
MWAH to the girl who gave me reasons to giggle like a school girl over stamps! 🙂
I’d be interested too but it all depends on the price.
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that you did the hard part and picked colors, and colors that blend too! Fabulous! I don’t hve the space for hundreds of markers, and don’t want to spend the money to get markers I likely won’t use. I could be interested too – tell us more 🙂
I think this could be good for me. Depending on price, I could be interested. Kristie talked me into buying 3 the last time i visited her store but i think i may “need” more..and like others said you’ve done the hard part picked the colors
Em-I would love to see what colors you’ve chosen that “you adore” and what the price point would be…..Secondly online tutorial please since I live in Northern California and cannot stalk the shop the way I would like to (and the way I totally stalk this blog-off topic for a moment…can you please think about adding a update thing so when you do update, it will automatically go to those e-mail addresses?) because I look at your blog at LEAST 10 times daily to see what funny and witty stuff you are saying….Love the bellas like I love my fella!! THANKS and mwah to bellas who support EM!!!
Depending on the price I would be interested.
definativesolutely interested in the adorable 54 … unless it requires a second mortgage application. You know I wannit so hit me up with the full scoop puhleeeeze 🙂
*inky hugs* Ava
am interested as well but the cost of these look a bit scary from what I have seen on-line!
Oooooo I NEED to find out more information on this! My lonely 2 copics need friends!
I love my copics! I’d love to get some more depending on the price.
I would love the 54/adore bella special. Price would matter as dd#3 is in college in the fall.
I’d LOVE more information on your “57”…and I’m LOVING that super cute storage find!!
I love the idea of the copics. I am wondering would you have a club? If not would we have to purchase the entire 57………..
I love the storage bag as well………
I would also love to know how to use copics to decide if they are worth the “investment”. And like all the others it would come down to $$$
Count me in, I’m interested.
Jacqueline aka TresBella
Definitely interested. But price would be a deciding factor.
okay, girlie, sign me up! i am finally taking the copic plunge – i have been feeling so left out! 🙂 lemme know the damage….second mortgage, here i come! 🙂
I’ve been wanting to try Copics. Please keep me in the loop!
