Stampscapes Made Easy – $20.00
Instructor – Ken Pesho from Stampscapes
Everyone knows how to stipple and how to use markers. This will be easy coloring for most. If not, I’ll be glad to help you along. The important thing about this class will be how to position and combine Stampscapes stamps, and on the coloring end learn about having a light source in your scenes. Stampscapes is FUN and a lot easier than most think. The proof is in the class. Seating is limited so come and join me for a couple hours of learning the easy way.
