Default I need Prismacolor/Copic marker color advice for outling images....

Cindy Lyles (StarLitStudio) frequently uses Copic Marker #BV31 (Pale Lavender) to outline her stamped images ... really makes them POP OFF the page. Can you all suggest other Copic or Prismacolor or even Stampin Up marker colors that would have the same effect. My local store has a limited supply of colors available and I need to make do. Thank you all for your help.

Stamp Owl usually uses a blue (maybe B00?) to outline hers. I'll normally use a gray WG3 or CG3.

Cool Shadow is a good copic color for outlining...

I know this isn't what you asked, but Tombow N95 is great for this too.

I just got rid of all my prismacolor markers, but there is definately a super light gray that I used. Although the hard tip on the prismacolor made it harder for me to get the light touch I wanted.

I think any super light shade will work.

I use cool grey 10% in a prismacolor marker or copic C1 for outlining.

I really like Prismacolor Brick White on white paper. I've also used Light Cerulean Blue, Eggshell, Cool Gray 40%, and Cream.

Thank you ladies for the ideas. Are the Stampin Up! colors just too dark? Has anyone tried reinker with a wet Aqua Painter maybe?
