Printing (optional add-on)
If you’d love for your design to be printed onto a set of cards you can actually give to loved ones, here’s your opportunity!
For this workshop, I’m offering the option to produce printed cards featuring your own design, which you can then give to friends and family. What better way to make writing a Christmas card more personal!
The option I’ve come up with is a set of 12 x A6 size cards featuring your design, printed on luxury white Tintoretto Gesso 250gsm card, which is a high quality, slightly textured and fully recyclable card type. They will come with brown Kraft envelopes.
Cards will be blank inside, and you can choose whether your cards have any wording on the front. On the back of the card at the bottom will be:
Design hand painted by Your Name
Card produced by illustrationbykelly.com
How it works
At the workshop, I’ll scan your painting once you’ve finished it, and will ask you whether you’d like any wording on the front. You’ll then be able to take your painting away with you.
It’s up to you what you do with your original version - keep it, frame it, gift it, or mount it onto a card and send it! I’ll bring some blank cards with me to the workshop for anyone who would like to do the latter.
After the workshop, I’ll digitise your design for print and order your set of cards. The £15 cost covers my time spent digitising your artwork as well as production and delivery of your cards.
They should arrive to me within a week, and I’ll then arrange collection or postage to you, so you’ll have them hopefully by the third week of November, or the fourth week at the latest.
Cost
The cost for this workshop is £35, which includes:
A 2hr workshop including a tutorial of watercolour techniques and guidance from me throughout
A printed copy of my ‘Introduction to Watercolour’ booklet
Use of all material and equipment
A complimentary drink
A free A5 print of my festive robin illustration
And of course your painting!
The cost for digitising and printing your cards is an additional £15 (optional), for which you’ll receive:
12 x A6 size cards featuring your design printed on luxury white Tintoretto Gesso 250gsm card
12 x A6 brown Kraft envelopes
If you’d like to book the workshop alone, the cost will be £35. If you’d like to book the workshop and printing of your own cards, the cost will be £50.
If you’re not sure whether you’d like printed cards with your design, you can decide later and pay by card on the day.
