Here link is the patterned paper/her Etsy shop and Facebook link. I thought I'd found her blog at some point, but I don't seen it now...maybe linked on the FB but I didn't take the time to find it before copying and pasting? Thanks. Searching for Etsy shops sucks if you don't know the shop name. Here's the blog everydayexp.com/ |

So, I completely forgot to tune in yesterday, but I'm lackadaisically watching now.
It is not at all what I thought it was going to be. With 40 cards, five each of eight designs, over four days, two hours/day, I just sort of assumed she taught two cards a day and then you made four more of each.
No. It's an elaborate batch process affair. Apparently yesterday was making alcohol ink and watercolor backgrounds, some for die cutting and some for actual backgrounds. Today was a bunch of die cutting and now she's going through the Erin Thompson paper pad and making card panels from it.
Tomorrow will be heat embossing, ink blending, and stamping.
It is very easy to find the lives in the private FB group. I hope they continue with this for the summits.
And I don't think I've watched Brandi teach a class before -- only sell the summits or cheerlead/MC them. She's much mellower teaching than the sort of strident hype-y way she comes across in those other circumstances.

Not that it would necessarily be a problem, but I would've expected the same as you did. I see Laurel has a class of her own coming up. Maybe in a similar format. Her style isn't my thing so I haven't paid much attention. |

It makes perfect sense, of course -- create 40 cards in 4 days could hardly NOT involve that sort of process -- it just wasn't described well in the hype.
The biggest surprise for me is that I really like her teaching style.
