September Product Review – Copic Markers

Copic Markers
By: Susan Wolf Caplan, Product Guru

Copic Markers are professional illustration markers.  They are double ended, low odor and alcohol based.  These markers are also refillable and come in over 200 colors.  Sounds pretty interesting, don’t they?

Digital Stamps

Digital Stamps
By: Susan Wolf Caplan, Product Guru
 Digital Stamps is a new stamping term to me.  I have been hearing some chatter about them for a couple of months now.  Seeing, as I didn’t know what they were all about, I “googled” them.  I was directed to a few sites that were offering digital stamps for [...]

Product Review – Sunday International EZ Mount

Sunday International EZ Mount
By: Susan Wolf Caplan, Product Guru
 When I started stamping in the 90’s, the wood mounted stamps were affordable.  As the years have passed the price of wood has increased, and as a result, the stamps mounted on them have begun to exceed stamper budgets. Many stampers now choose to purchase unmounted rubber stamps and opt to [...]
