Copic Techniques Class

Hello,

Well, today I thought that I would introduce a class of mine that is EXTREMELY popular in several southern California stores. It is my COPIC TECHNIQUES CLASS. Below is a description of the 3 hour class. If you are interested in taking a class or scheduling a class at your store, please contact me via email. Jenniebstampin@aol.com Classes are listed on the right side of my blog under current classes.

NOTE: I am expanding the areas that I teach this class to the areas in which I do certification classes. IE: Portland, Oregon, Phoenix Arizona, Salt Lake city, UT, San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego, Santa Barbara, and so many more places - watch my blog for updates.

Class Description:
This is a fun and energetic class packed with information on how to use your Copic markers. In this class each person will receive a special Copic Technique workbook written by me. We will work in this book and practice each of the below techniques. This book becomes a wonderful resource tool to use at home. You will also have several extra images in the book so that you can continue to practice each technique after you go home. As practice makes perfect!
