About Christmas Cards & Prosecco Workshop

Christmas Cards & Prosecco Workshop

Sat 22 November, 10 - 4pm with Sheila Chapman

Spend a relaxing day getting organised for Christmas, designing and drawing your own unique Christmas cards for family and friends. We will use dip pens and ink (or black fineliner pens, if you prefer), and add colour using watercolour wash.

This workshop will include an introduction to watercolour techniques, especially working "wet-in-wet", which we will then use to create some unique step-by-step watercolour Christmas card designs, before moving on to add colour to our earlier inked drawing designs.

Designs for copying will be provided, or you can bring your own. All materials provided, including metallic pens and eco friendly glitter for finishing touches.

Everyone will be provided with a pack of 12 cards, not to mention plenty of complimentary bubbles, nibbles, tea, coffee and juice.
