Distress Techniques: Watercolor Pencils Part 2 – Online Class

In this class, we will continue to explore the world of Distress Watercolor Pencils. We will build on what was learned in Distress Techniques: Watercolor Pencils. While not mandatory, it’s recommended to enroll in the first session of the Watercolor Pencils Distress Techniques online course. That class dives into foundational knowledge important for learning about this medium. Participating in that first class will give you a solid understanding of Distress Watercolor Pencils and how to use them. This part two session will primarily focus on more techniques. Jenn is going to share a variety of different techniques that you will be able to use in your cardmaking, mixed media, and papercrafting adventures. This class is going to be dedicated to learning and creative play. We will not complete any final projects but will have fabulous backgrounds that you could create cards, use in your projects later, or use as references in your crafty space. This class is perfect for beginners or more advanced papercrafters- there is something to learn for everyone! All of the class videos will be available to watch in private YouTube videos, there is no need to have Facebook to participate!
