Tweets the Season is an opportunity to create 3 unique cards from start to finish! We will be creating cards featuring Lawn Fawn’s Winter Birds and Christmas Before ‘n Afters stamp set. Jenn will have dedicated time to go over the Copic coloring of all the images where coloring guides are provided. Even if you won’t be coloring with Copic markers, the instructions from Jenn and coloring guides will help those who are using any other coloring medium. Jenn will share guidance 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!
Join me for the LIVE class, hosted on YouTube (private videos) on November 4th or you can take the class anytime after that when it is convenient for you!

What a wonderful class this was! I loved learning how Jenn colors the birds and those pine boughs! Wow! Of course, Lawn Fawn’s mice make the sweetest cards no matter what the theme. I always learn new things every time I take a class with Jenn! She is a great teacher and loves sharing tips and tricks with her students. The three cards we made in class are so cute and I love how she brought back a Frosty Friend from last winter into her bonus cards. As always, her handouts are super detailed and helpful.
