Hi all! I was browsing through the papers at icopic.com and I came across Copic Papercrafting Stamping paper. Has anyone here ever used it? If so, how did you find it? I'd really like to find out more about how Copic coloured images turn out on this paper, and any info would be awesome.
I have a pad but I prefer Gina K Luxury 120 lb CS even to this. The copics blend so beautifully on Gina`s and there is no bleed through on single layer cards. HTH!
Im not sure if its the same thing, but i recently picked up a pack from Couture cardstock co. and they are calling the pack "Copic Detail Blending Paper" and its a little on the thin side to touch but, it does color over nicely no fur balls of lose paper build up. ( I used it on these PSX flowers Morning GloriesOrchids) It would only work as a layer not a cardbase.
The Copic Stamping paper is a thinner weight paper designed for Copic Markers - it is sold in a pack of loose sheets. I have been using it for a while, and I'm happy with it.
I looked for my pack to give you the weight of each sheet...but the pack itself is currently MIA. When I find it, I'll report back.
I use this most often for digital images as I have trouble feeding thicker cardstock through my printer. The Stamping Paper takes stamped images and the Copic ink really well. I also like that it's light and doesn't add additional weight to my cards.
I have a Copic "Marker Pad." Is this the same stuff, you think?
The Copic Marker Pad is different from the Copic Stamping Paper. The Marker pad is a thinner paper that doesn't bleed through. The stamping paper is a thin cardstock that blends well but is a bit "gray" on the white scale and would need to be layered on cards.
Michelle is right, the Copic Stamping Paper is nothing like the Marker Pads.
The Copic Stamping Paper is 60# and just a touch off of bright white.
I've attached a picture of a card I made last week with the Stamping Paper. This is a digital image printed on the paper. The white flower is Prima and the patterned paper has a white (not cream) base, for reference.
I have the copic bleedproof marker pad, produced by favini. It is also much thinner, and
has to be layered on cardstock. I think these type of papers were meant to be used by drawing artist that use markers for coloring. I much prefer Gina K cardstock, it stamps the best/clearest inked image and doesn't bleed.

Yes, but the Stamping Paper is different from the Marker Pad that you are describing.
From the Stamping Illustration Paper label:
Ideal for coloring, stamping and layering with your favorite card stocks.
Smooth surface for better blending.
Colors stay bright.
Uses less ink.
Excellent for stamping, papercrafting, pen, ink and markers.

Thanks Carolyn!
