Still loving these older SU sets. I keep a tally of which stamp sets get used throughout a year and each spring set the ones aside that haven't been used. Then I sell them at my local paper crafting store for store credit. Love that sale! Then I go shopping with my earnings. Who can argue with that!
Putting to use a set I bought because I loved it but haven't used in a while feels good.
The only thing I don't like about direct to paper images using copics is that you can see the ink in the inside of the card. Hmm.
Enjoy!

Beautiful card! It's an older set I bought used on Ebay, then never used. You have inspired me. For situations like you describe with something showing through, I use quotes found online and print something appropriate on thin cardstock, then stick it on inside of cover. Looks like I've done a lot more work than I did!

Very pretty card.
Here's a trick. Cut a piece of printer paper the size of your card. Fold in half, then trim down a bit so that you won't see it peeking out of your card. Stamp your sentiment. Then run a glue stick along the fold on the front side of your insert. Attach to back of card front. This looks great and it covers any bleed-through from your markers.
