Ayako Cherry Blossom Card & Copic Class

Sorry this sample took so long to post...this is the sample for our beginner Copic Coloring Class featuring Ayako from Sister Stamps.

In this class, you'll learn how to color Black Hair and blending techniques for coloring skin & clothes.

The class focuses mainly on coloring with your copic markers. We give you all the elements needed to complete the card, which most often is completed at home.

I used the new Worldwin Ruche paper in colors White & Blue this time. I absolutely LOVE the texture of this paper. It made for a great sky and cloud cut-out.

Inside of the card is a sentiment I used again from my favorite set at the moment, Lawn Fawn's Bannerific & Sophie's Sentiments.

Please join us for our Ayako Cherry Blossom Copic Class:

September 10
10:30 - 12:30

September 11
1:00 - 3:00

I'll probably be repeating this class once more towards the end of the month. If you are interested in booking a private lesson for you and a few of your girlfriends, please call me 735-3553. We can accommodate custom classes at any time. Minimum of 3 is required. =)

Bon Dance!

Bon dance season in Hawaii just ended, but that's not stopping Nobu & Miyono of Sister Stamps.

Obon or just Bon is a Japanese Buddhist custom to honor the spirits of family members who have passed away.

During the summer months from June to August, you'll find Bon Festivals throughout Hawaii hongwanji missions & temples. Summertime is when it is believed the ancestral spirits return to visit family & friends.


Obon in Japan dates back more than 500 years. Here in Hawaii, the festivals serve as both a ceremony of spiritual remembrance and a celebration of cultural heritage and community. Everyone is welcome at an o-bon festival, regardless of religious background or ethnicity.

These festivals are also known for serving up delicious Japanese foods such as andagi (sweet fried dough), grilled teri-beef and -chicken skewers, musubi (rice balls wrapped in dried seaweed), and stir-fry noodles. The food booths help to nourish the dancers, as well as raise money for the host hongwanji.

Living here for over 30 years, I've never attended one. Driving over the Pali to work, I pass 2 hongwanji missions and always see the beautiful lanterns strewn up. Hopefully I'll be able to catch a few next year.

In the meantime, you can join us this Saturday & Sunday as we teach another Copic Coloring Class. We'll be using the new Ruche Crepe Textured Cardstock, Sister Stamps Release #2 and Lawn Fawn stamps.

Copic Color & Side Step Card
Saturday 9/3
10:30 - 12:30

Sunday 9/4
1:00 - 3:00

Friday 9/9
4:00 - 6:00

Please visit our Calendar for detailed information. Colors to bring are listed on the Calendar.

Mei Li Copic Coloring Class

Tomorrow we have a Copic Coloring class using Mei Li from Sister Stamps. I cased this shadow box card design from one of the samples given to me by Jenny. Her crafty BFF Debi mass produced a bunch of these samples so we could showcase these cute stamps.

(Sidenote: If you haven't pre-ordered your Sept release, tomorrow is the last day to get 10% off and guarantee you will get your stamps by Sept 1.)

I loved how simple it was to make the card, so decided to use the design in our Copic class tomorrow. *Thanks Jenny & Debi!!

In the class, I will be teaching coloring techniques using Mei Li as our sample subject. In addition, we'll be making this card as part of the class. Working on this card sample, I got a chance to ink up stamps from Lawn Fawn which are now available at Pineapple Cove!

I absolutely LOVED the quality of the photo polymer stamps by Lawn Fawn. The images were deep, leaving very crisp lines. Putting pressure did not smudge my lines like some other clear stamps. And my Memento & Versa Fine ink did not stain the photo polymer, a big pet peeve of mine. Don't you hate it when your pretty stamps get dirty? (*Yes, I'm that kind of crafter lol*)







If you missed tomorrow's class, I'll probably be repeating it next month, so keep an eye on our Calendar for more details.

Stamps Used:
Sister Stamps - Mei Li
Lawn Fawn - Bannerific, Lunar Lights
Hero Arts - Asian Borders
