Stretching My Boundaries with Marjie Kemper and Inventive Inks

I'm more of a paint girl than an ink girl.  But I'll study anything with a great teacher, even if it's way outside my comfort zone.  So when Marjie Kemper revealed her new online class with Craftsy called "Inventive Ink; Colorful Mixed Media Effects," I knew I had to take it.

I took one of Marjie's classes last October at Art is You, and her knowledge, organization, and ability to put students at ease were just fantastic.

Here's what you get for your $29.99 class with Marjie at Craftsy: Seven detailed lessons, with just about every technique you can possibly imagine you could do with inks. Marjie's enthusiasm for the products and all you can do with them is infectious.  She creates projects before your eyes, and even makes some "mistakes," and shows you how you can fix them.  She shares what to do with your tags and other projects, and gives tips for how to take them to the next level.

I honestly would have felt that I'd gotten my money's worth at the end of the first lesson!  And then there were 6 more!  What an amazing deal!  (You know when you're watching a series on Netflix and you think you'll stop after an episode... but then a little timer says "your next episode will start in 15 seconds... and so you keep watching and watching?  Well that's what it was like for me with Marjie's classes.  They were so good, I just *had* to keep watching!)

Here's what my work table looked like as I prepared to start watching the lessons:

I decided to work on tags, and pulled out some of my stamps from RubberMoon, and stencils from Stencil Girl Products.     I was so involved in the lessons, that I neglected to take step out pictures beyond this:

But by the end of the 7 lessons, I had created three tags, all of which I am so pleased with (if I do say so myself!).

I will definitely be incorporating some of these fabulous techniques into my future work.  And I LOVE the fact that I can re-visit these classes again and again, as there's no expiration date for them. Plus, I know I will get so much more out of them in sessions to come.

AND BEST OF ALL: Marjie has offered a 1/2 price class to one lucky commenter on this blog!  So leave a comment below and make sure to include your email address if you want a chance to win a 1/2 price Inventive Ink class!
