Growing Your Skills with The Sketchbook Series

Happy Thursday, everyone!
You might recall from a few weeks ago when Alyssa & I attended Fleurology in Houston that we were fortunate enough to participate in The Sketchbook Series class offered during the symposium. I had previously completed the online version of the class last year & it was so fun to put my learned skills to use in the live class.
The Sketchbook Series is a collection of one-of-a-kind luxury sketching experiences for creative professionals offering a unique approach towards how creatives bring their ideas to life. You can now get the course online so you can go through all the amazing content in the comfort of your own home.


For calligraphers/stationers, sketching is such a useful skill. You can use sketching in your initial proofs for client work as well as for sketching new designs, products and more. Personally I’m going to be incorporating some of my sketches into upcoming invitation suite designs that we will be launching later this year!
When we found out our friend Mary Phan is offering $100 off her e-course through May 17, we knew we had to share! You can use code SPRINGFLING only through May 17, so get sketchin’! You can find the gorgeous markers used in all these images here.
Oh and by the way, this is NOT a sponsored post. I just really love The Sketchbook Series and hope it is helpful for some of you!


During the workshop and ecourse, Mary walks her students through a series of practice sketching techniques such as Marker + coloring tips and techniques, 2D floral lesson, drapery, 1-point & 2-point perspective drawing, 2D & 3D cake lesson, tablescape using 2-point perspective, coloring techniques and more.
I always find it therapeutic to put my creative skills to use beyond pointed-pen & supporting a fellow small business owner is an added bonus! Be sure to take a peek at The Sketchbook Series E-Course, and you might also find that there’s an in-person workshop in your area.
Enjoy!
P.S. Don’t forget your chance to get the E-Course at $100 off is only valid through May 17. Use code SPRINGFLING at checkout.
