Watercolor Techniques Class - Butterfly Reflections Ink


Hello long lost crafty friends! Wow...I can't believe it's been so long since I've posted on my blog. To say that life has been busy is an understatement! Spring is the busiest time of the work year for me and I have literally just finally resurfaced after a crazy few months. And I'm excited to share that I'm resurfacing with the announcement of a class that I'll be teaching at a new store in Kingston, NH. The store is named Butterfly Reflections (they're also online) and Vanessa (the store owner) just opened a few months ago. She has a darling space pack full of stamps, dies, inks, papers, and everything in between!

Pictures of the cards we'll be creating in the Watercolor Technique Class can be seen here and a description of the class is below:

Watercolor Techniques
August 9, 2018
7-9 pm
Cost: $25

Join me for a card class featuring Distress Oxide Inks, Zig Clean Color Brush Markers, and stamps and dies from Altenew and Concord & 9th. During class we’ll explore several watercolor techniques, such as creating backgrounds with the smoosh technique and no line watercoloring. Kim will also demonstrate how you can use Distress Oxide Inks to quickly and easily add color to outline images and using a water and brush to establish beautiful shading. We’ll also explore using Zig Clean Color Brush Markers to easily add a watercolor look to your stamped images.

The stamps and dies needed for the class will be provided for you. Please bring the following: (You can contact the store to purchase items, if necessary) The instructor will be bringing supplies to share:
  • Non-stick craft sheet
  • Small round brush, thin waterbrush (brush with water in barrel), vessel to hold water
  • Liquid glue or another strong adhesive
  •  Foam tape
  • Heat tool
  • Baby wipes and/or paper towels
  • We will be using Copic markers on one card so if you have the markers, feel free to bring along a purple, teal, olive green, yellow, and pink shade. 




Hope to see you at class!
