I am so excited to announce my next BackyardART class: Life Is Sweet! It's a bakery themed mixed media project I've designed for girls ages 8 and up. In this 4-hour class, we will make 10 pages of art using scrapbook paper, vintage sheet music, scissors, glue sticks, white paint pens and doodle markers.
We will design cakes, cupcakes, ice cream and quotes using a mouth-watering color palette of soft pink, Kraft, teal, black white and grey. Each child will sketch and cut out their own designs from patterned paper and then glue the pieces onto a piece of 6"x9" Kraft card stock, using a technique called paper-piecing.
After gluing our designs, we will add details using a white paint pen and a black, fine point doodle pen.
Finally, we will bind all of our pages into its very own book, using binder rings. We'll add some "sprinkles and a cherry on top" with ribbon and lace that we'll tie to the rings.
I just know the girls will be so proud of their creations! Everything they learn in class can easily be done at home. In order to encourage them to create, I will send them home with their glue stick and doodle marker!
