Copic Basics: Legacy Lessons with Cristena

Welcome to our Legacy Lessons — a special collection of Cristena’s classic tutorials from her Copic Academy days.
As a Certified Copic Instructor, Cristena has spent years helping crafters build confidence and creativity with their markers. These videos feature partner products from earlier collaborations, but the techniques, tips, and creative magic you’ll learn are truly timeless.

Whether you’re revisiting an old favorite or discovering these lessons for the first time, you’ll find the same warmth, laughter, and coloring wisdom that have inspired crafters for years. 💕
