I have used both the actual paper and a copy of the paper in the past. When I copy it I use a laser printer that is Copic friendly. This 12 X 12 scrapbook paper is thin, has a little gray tone and will not react to Copic Markers like 'standard' Copic papers. I always test papers like this before getting into a project. I look for bleed-through and bleed-out of the stamped image. It's my opinion that you will not get the same blending ability as you would with something like Xpressit paper. I have also adhered the thin paper to another heavier paper for more stability, which will help with some of the bleed-through to the back. I hope this has answered some of your questions and please don't hesitate to contact me again if you have questions.<br />Nancydesignermchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12647850248058156599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5161771723760762469.post-55077696583177303822016-05-28T16:13:02.763-05:002016-05-28T16:13:02.763-05:00GREAT idea Nancy.

Did any of the text transfer onto your Copic markers?<br /><br />-- ConnieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
