Welcome to class!

Welcome to the Distress Paint Techniques class! In this class, we'll explore the unique properties of Distress Paints and how they can elevate your mixed media and paper crafting projects. Whether you're new to these paints or looking to expand your skills, you'll learn a variety of techniques that showcase their versatility—from creating textured backgrounds to blending with sprays and embossing. We’ll also explore how to combine and use different supplies to create beautiful mixed media backgrounds. The goal of this class is to inspire you to rediscover supplies you don’t use often and explore their full potential. You’ll learn new techniques while revisiting old favorites with a fresh perspective, helping you see your materials in a whole new way. This class encourages you to play, experiment, and make mistakes—without the pressure of perfection. You'll be encouraged to trust your instincts, explore new techniques, and step beyond your comfort zone. By the end of the class, you’ll feel confident and excited to experiment, embrace your creativity, and unlock endless possibilities with the supplies you already have
