Lutterworth 3rd Copic Class

Monday, May 17th, 2010

The Lutterworth 3rd Introduction to Copic Class took place yesterday with comments from customers including:

“Great fun, learnt new techniques to take away and practice”

“Really helpful. Very Clear instructions, easy to understand.  Great to have time to practise!”

“Thoughly enjoyed the class.  Learnt loads about how to use Copics - will definitely look out for the next class”.

As you can see from the comments everyone seemed to enjoy the class.  Sorry I forgot to take a photo - just too busy (and tired having left home at 6:30am and not home again till about 7:30pm- shattered!!!)

 Our new Class dates will be following very soon so if you are interested in attending a class watch this space.. If you want a class in your area please drop a line to wendy@stampsandmemories.co.uk. 

New Card will follow later this week,
