COPIC Workshop
Copic Card Coloring Workshop with Jennie Black - Saturday 9/18 2:30-4:30pm
Our Price: $35.00 7 in stock!

Due to such an outstanding response to my techniques classes at Jazi Crafts, I am coming back to teach another Copic Techniques class on September 18th.  While I am there I thought it would be fun to have a coloring class.  We will be coloring images to make cards, see the pictures for samples. For the rest of the class we will be coloring selected images to practice a few coloring techniques.  I will be doing a fun image to play with skin colors and hair highlights. We will color an image with transparent balloons (showing through each other) and several other techniques.  Hope to see you all there.   
 
Each image we color will be pre-cut so that you can later add it to a card (leaving time to practice coloring in class instead of actual card making). 

Student supplies for class: 
Your own Copic Markers
