I got some Copic markers recently, and I'm getting more for my birthday soon, but I have very few stamps that are good for coloring! So what are your favorites?
You gotta try the Kim Hughes Collection from Cornish Heritage Farms....The line art on these is bold so it is much more forgiving to color....harder to go outside the lines....an awesome place to start coloring and experimenting with copics.
I love The Saltbox Studio and Amuse for coloring. I also have quite a few Lockhart stamps...I really think Karen Lockhart (and Ellen Hutson's store!) is solely responsible for the interest in coloring again!
What type of stamps do you like? Flowers, butterlies, geometric, unusual, holiday-themed, kids, animals?
As cjbapp said - Elzybells. I recently stocked up on those just for this reason! I've also found quite a few @ Clear Dollar Stamps (order arrived yesterday). And Pink Cat Studios - personally I like Lily and Billy. Crafty Secrets are good for coloring if you like vintage. Penny Black (already suggested) are good; she has some cute critters. I have an order I'm expecting from Eureka Stamps that will be good for this. Oh, and Impression Obsession has some super ones.
Gee, the list goes on and on. I'd better stop.

I am in love with penny Black stamps. I especially love their "cute" line. I also got a couple of fluffles the cat images and elzybells from pif in the swap forums. They are fun to color and make fun and happy cards. If you get a second you can check out my blog for some of the images I like to color. (link in siggy)
I love coloring Bella's, ecpecially the new Bitty Blooms they are so cute and colorful. Sarah Kays I can color them to look like my little girls. And alot of the sets I have from SU are good for coloring. I love to color, I can act like a kid and I don't have to share my crayons/markers (they cost $5 a piece)
Thanks so much!! Ahh, now I have too many choices, lol ;). I was strictly SU for a long time, so I didn't really know most of what is out there. I love a lot of the stamps you all have listed, especially Great Impressions and Impression Obsession! Thanks the coupon code!
I found their company store on a trip to Colorado Springs, and have been firmly hooked ever since.
Really-go look!
Hi Pat! Yep - you tell 'em!! I have been hoarding the beautiful images you sent me and now is the time to pull them out and have some fun! They really are gorgeous ;)
(more cases will come your way, Pat, if SU! hooks me again with the new catalog lol!! Hope all is well down your way ;) )

My favorite SU stamp to color with my Copics is my Voila set. I also did some Christmas cards with the Big on Christmas where I used my Copics.
