CHALKING COURSE
Why use chalk?
Chalk is a beautiful
forgiving medium that adds subtle shading to your page and enhance your
photographs. It can change the tone of the page or additional paper making it just the perfect fit with your photos. Chalk is easy to use - once you know how, and with the addition of chalk pencils you can learn clever tricks to make your pages stand out from the crowd.
Learn how to add chalk to your page in lots of different ways:
Using it with the shapes of your template, to build a frame, extend the photo (above right), with embossed paper, with versamark, blending colours, on dark and light paper, to change the tone of paper, to fill in 'blank' spots on your page with subtle decoration... Chalking is the first technique to learn once you have mastered the basic idea of creating scrap pages the Azza way, so if you have been to a few classes and are ready to learn more this is the way to go.
About the Course:
This course is run over 10 sessions. I have split it in two, part one - the first five sessions - will be offered on
Wednesdays and Saturday in July to November 2019. Part two
will be February to June 2020. In this course we follow pages from
the creative team - using sketch sheets and the same template to quickly
build a page so that you have time to learn a new technique each session and apply it to your page. You will finish with a small booklet of examples to
remind you of the techniques as well as your pages. It is important that
you can plan a page yourself, use sketch
sheets, and that you can build a page following examples. You
should have attended at least two 'Basic / Intermediate' classes prior to
starting for the course (those on 13th July count).
As everyone uses the same template you will need to either have already
purchased the template or order when you book into your first
session. You will also be given a set of chalks each lesson -
for this reason I have to close bookings for the course on 2 July so that
I can order the necessary templates & chalks for the first lesson.
Dates will be:
Saturdays: 20 Jul / 17 Aug / 21 Sept / 19 Oct / 16 Nov
Wednesdays: 17 Jul / 14 Aug / 11 Sept / 9 Oct / 13 Nov
You can attend whichever day in each month suits you, ie if you can't
make the Saturday you can swap to the Wednesday that month or visa versa
(as long as you book in).
Templates used:
Fiji & Orion. Each template can be purchased either as Duo (just the templates) for $29.50 or as the Studio Kit (with the
instructions, ideas and sketch sheets) for $55.00. We will use the
Fiji in part one and Orion in part 2.
Three Ways to
Pay:
1. Pay up front for 5 lessons, (includes 5 classes, the studio kit
& chalks) $220* - save $10
2. Direct Debit - on the first of each month - (includes 5
classes, the studio kit & chalks) $45/month* - save $5
3. Monthly in advance - $37 per month (includes 1 class plus 1 chalk
pack) - NB: first month you will also need to purchase the template (duo or studio kit) if you don't already have it, session one and template must be paid for before 2 July, subsequent
sessions to be paid for a lesson in advance.
(*obviously less if you already have the template - I can work that out
for you, please ask.)
I will send out the sketch sheet and two examples at the beginning of
each month, so you can prepare your photographs at home. These are
faster paced classes than the beginners/intermediate so you will need to
be prepared by choosing your photos and their placement in advance.
Contact me by email or phone or FB message to book in.
Meanwhile, enjoy battening down the hatches for some serious scrapping.
