Love these instructors and would love to win a spot in the class! Thanks for doing a giveaway!
watercolor for cardmakers! Learned so much in that class.
I’ve only taken one class before about the Cricut machine and it was awful. But I know that Jennifer, Kristina and Lauren would be awesome instructors so maybe I should take the plunge and try again. Thanks for the chance!
Oh, do try again, Donna! I didn’t take the Cricut class so I have no opinion about it, but I’ve now taken a number of these classes and they are awesome. I learn so much, and end up with a lot of projects I’m happy with. You’re right — Jennifer, Kristina and Laura are awesome instructors!
My most favorite class was copic markers, but they all rocked!!
Love these online card classes and can’t get enough of them. I signed up for this one as soon as it was announced,
I’ve only taken one OCC class. It was the Copic markers class and I cannot praise it highly enough! I learned so much from that class. I found six others I’m dying to take, this background class being one of them. I hope I win! : – ) Thanks for the opportunity to win!
I’ve taken a lot of these classes and it’s hard to pick a favorite because I’ve learned so much in each one. The instructors are amazing. I think I’m using the techniques from the watercolor class the most so that is currently my favorite :)
I’d addicted! Would love a free spot!!
These classes are the best. My favorite was the stencil class. Can’t wait to see what they come up with this time.
I would say the watercolor class was my favorite. This background check class sounds interesting though.
I have never had the opportunity to take one of these online classes. To win one would be fantastic, especially as I love background techniques. Thanks so much for the giveaway!
Taken one online class couple Summers ago & it was ok. Thanks for giveaway chance.

I love the watercolor class ideas. Thanks SSS for the chance to win!
I love the class stenciled
I took both of Professor Tim’s chemistry class, loved them both but I liked the pace better on the first class, haven’t gotten around to doing all of the last one’s projects, couldn’t get all the materials etc. It’s on my “play” list. I do NEED to take this class, because when the class starts is about the time my DD and her spouse are moving 1500 miles away! My daughter and I are very close and I’ll miss our getting together for “girl” time. This class would totally distract me from my misery.
I’ve taken several OCC classes, but I think my favorite so far was the Watercolor for Cardmakers class. Can’t wait for the new class to start! Thanks for doing such a great giveaway! :) ~ Andrea
I have taken only two classes, but I can not reccomend them enough. Wonderful classes that are fabulous and I want to take more. If had to choose I think I learned the most from the Copic class.

I’ve never had the opportunity to attend any of the craft online or offline course!! I would love to win this!! I admire these instructors!!
I loved the Watercoloring for Cardmakers class. I learned so much in the watercoloring class and refer to it often. Thank you for the opportunity to win a slot in the Background class!
I really liked the Stretch Your Stamps series, so full of creative ideas!
I love watercolors for cardmakers but I am just starting out!
The Copic class was amazing! But the watercolor class was a close second for me.
Tim Holtz’s class had a lot of ingo.
Oh how lovely! My favourite Online card class so far was the Watercolour for cardmakers class – that was so much fun!
I haven’t taken an online card class. I love seeing the cards made by the teachers in this online card class though and love seeing the watercolor techniques. I don’t have a card style and I want to learn how to make cute cards for my friends.
Thanks for the chance to win.
My favorite online card class so far was clean and simple cardmaking 4. I would love to sign up for this class too! Thanks for the info! :)
All the online card classes I have were amazing, but my favorite is the Clean and Simole card making. Thanks for the chance to win a spot.
I subscribe to your newsletter! I have never taken an Online Card Class before… would love to win and take it!!!
Clean and Simple card making for sure!!
This sounds like such an amazingly fun class! I’m sure I’d learn so much – especially from those talented instructors.
I won a class on Easter cards a year or so ago. That’s the only one I’ve taken online.
Maybe this will be my chance to take another class.
I signed up for the newsletter.
thanks.
Mt favorite class that I’ve taken is creative color techniques by Laura Bassen. She’s so fantastic and fun! :) Thanks for the chance to win!
I have never taken an online class. I subscribed to your newsletter.
I am a total fan have taken them all
The watercolor one was fabulous but the very first one that jennifer did alone remains close to my heart without forgetting Tim’s classes 103 soon please:)
loved the watercolor class. I am already subscribed!
I loved taking Copics for Card Makers, and I’ve been subscribed to the newsletter ever since I found out about your company! :)
My favorite class was the watercolor. I learnt a lot and I would be very happy to have this new one .
Thanks for the chance.
Would love to win a spot in the class! Thanks for the giveaway!
These classes are FABULOUS. I was bummed to have missed the masking one while on vacation, but I will take this one either winning or paying. My favorite is a tie between the stenciling and the water-coloring and the copics. Hard to pick just one. Fabulous teachers, Fabulous videos, Fabulous step by steps. I won a class from another vendor and while it was informative it was a bit of a let down compared to OCC. I know I am going to have a good time when I sign up for an OCC class. Good luck everyone.
Loved Masquerade and the watercoloring class. those are the only two I’ve taken and I LOVED them!
My favourite is one I am doing with Laura Bassen Vibrant Stamping. It has been wonderful … I love colour and she is FAB !!
I have never taken an online card class. I watch a TON of youtube videos but this would be nice!
It’s been awhile since I’ve taken a few of the classes. Several of the latest classes are on my to-do list. ;-)
Thanks for the chance to win a spot.
I’ve enjoyed all of the classes, but the Copic would be my favorite, followed by watercolor.
I loved the Insider class, but then I love just about everything that Kristina, Jennifer and Laura do. Not only do they make amazing cards, and give wonderful directions, but they make such entertaining videos! Love ’em!
thanks for the chance to win. my budget is sooooo tight I can’t afford any extras right now but need some fun in my life.
My fav class would be the Copics. Loved it!
My fave is still Holiday Card boot camp! But I’ve enjoyed all the classes I’ve participated in.
