If you’re on my mailing list, you’ll have already received information about my next online class – Watercolour 101. It’s an online class showing you basic watercolour techniques and ways to incorporate it into your rubber stamping, cardmaking and paper crafting. Early Bird Pricing is on right now (save $5 off regular class price) until class opens Thursday 11 November 2021. Click here for the Class info/registration page or check out the video below.
Here’s some FAQs (and their answers)
Q: When does the class start?
A: Early bird pricing is on now ($20CAD, save $5). The class site will open Thursday 11 November 2021.
Q: Is this an online class?
A: Yes. Once you’ve paid and registered (through the links on the class info page), you’ll have access to the site (after 11 Nov 21) and can watch the class videos there.
Q: Is there a specific time for the class?
A: No – this is a self paced, learn as you’re able type of class with prerecorded videos. The videos will be there for you to watch and re-watch as needed, whenever you have the chance – all you need is internet & a phone/tablet/computer!
Q: How long do I have to access this class?
A: Lifetime access (or reasonable facsimile?!). Basically once you’ve paid, (and once the class officially launches) you’ll be able to access class materials (videos, written info) whenever you need to!
Q: What supplies do I need?
A: One item from each of the first three categories will do to start – (links to show examples, not necessarily exact items used during the videos)
–Colouring media – watercolour pencils, reinkers/dye ink pads (like Stampin’ Up! classic ink pads), water soluble markers (like Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Write Markers),
–Application tools – paint brushes, Aqua Painters / Water Painters, Blender Pens
–Papers – recommended: Watercolour Paper, also useable: Shimmery White Cardstock, can also use Thick Basic White or Basic White Cardstock but limitations to these.
–Other: stamps – outline stamps, solid stamps, StazOn or solvent based / non-watersoluble ink (NOT dye based inks), paper towel, clear stamp blocks/old plate/paint palette
You do not need all of these supplies, and can probably make do with what you already have on hand (you may be surprised…). Some of these videos have been in the YamStamps vault for a little while, so you’ll notice that I use some retired stamps, and some of the tools have been replaced by updated versions (that work the same way!).
You’ll be able to take the techniques that you see in the Watercolour 101 class and apply them to your rubber stamping and cardmaking efforts. It’s a fun, artistic way to add some colour to your crafting! Please feel free to message me if you have any questions, otherwise I hope to “see” you in class!
