Sweet Bee is an opportunity to create 3 unique cards from start to finish! We will be creating cards featuring Lawn Fawn’s Hive Five stamp set! Jenn will have dedicated time to go over the Copic coloring of all the images and will share instructions for building scenes with your cards. As always throughout the class tips and tricks will be shared. Jenn will also share the designs of 2 bonus cards, using the supplies we used in class. Tons of inspiration for you to use with your crafty supplies!
- session one: Copic coloring instruction, and other techniques
- session two: card assembly, tips tricks, and processes
If you can’t attend LIVE, you will always be able to watch the replays.

Once you have purchased this online class, you are able to access the class resource page by logging into your account www.shurkus.com/my-account , choosing “classes & events” and then choosing this class. On the class resource page, you will find the downloadable class supply list and class prep handout. This will include the details of what to have stamped, die-cut, and pre-cut ahead of time before you watch the class videos. You will also find the details about the class LIVES which are hosted on private YouTube links. As the class gets closer the class handout will be posted here as well.
Starting with classes in 2023 I will no longer be starting a private Facebook group for each class that I offer. Now that class videos are hosted on YouTube and all private information can be found on the class resource page, I don’t feel there is much of a need. I also will contact class attendees with any important class updates or changes via email, so no one will miss anything. Now I encourage you to join my {creative chick} studio share Facebook group, which is a public group and open to any papercrafters. You can still share posts in the group as you are preparing for class, what your crafty space looks like all set up and your cards after class. If you have questions specifically about the class you can still ask them in this group, and tag me in the post by typing @jenn shurkus to tag me. OR you can send me an email at creative-chick@shurkus.com
With the supplies you have gathered ahead of time, you will be able to watch the videos and create right along with me as I teach. You will be able to comment, ask questions, and interact with other students. You can also share your projects in the Facebook group or on social media using the hashtag #CreativeChickClasses. If you happen to miss the live broadcast, or if you want to rewatch it, it will be permanently saved on YouTube. You can also ask me questions in the Facebook group, but you can also email me questions if you are not in the group.

Even though I made two of the three cards in this class during a live event with Jenn, I went ahead and signed up for the class anyway. I am sure glad I did! It was so much fun. The 3rd card is so cute—that honey!! And the bonus cards are darling and will be recreated. As always, Jenn’s class handouts with the valuable coloring guide are worth every penny you pay for class. I have all of mine stored in binders by year (Shurkus.com binders of course!). I have the binders within reach of my work space and refer to the coloring guides all the time, even when I am not coloring Lawn Fawn images. Sometimes I just look at the handouts to get my creative juices flowing when I am designing a card layout. They are just really nice to have.
