Let's Make a Fashion Look Book!

I've been watching a whole lot of Making the Cut, Project Runway and Next in Fashion lately. As some of you might know, I make a lot of my clothes and I am passionate about fashion! I know many of my students are as well...which is what inspired me to create this fun activity that I'm calling a Fashion Look Book. My favorite part is, with just the flip of a tab, you can change the look of a whole outfit. All you need are the following:

* One piece of copy paper
* Construction paper for the cover (any paper will do)
* Permanent or black marker
* Stapler
* Something to color with

Here we go:

Have fun! 

Wizard Week: Wizard Selfies!

Did we have fun making Wizard Selfies yesterday! It was such a blast and the Art Class with Cassie kids did an INCREDIBLE job! In case you missed it, here are the supplies we used:

And here's the video so you can create!

You won't want to miss today! We are making Baby Dragon Puppets! Grab your supplies and I'll see you on my Instagram or my Facebook LIVE at 11am CT. Or check the afterparty on my YouTube channel. New videos added daily so be sure to subscribe! 

Let's Make a Landscape!

Here's an easy and fun way to teach about the four parts of a landscape: horizon line, back-, middle- and foreground. What I love about this little lesson is that the pop-up stands up and it can act as a card of a storytelling prompt as it opens like a book! Check out this three-minute demo. Feel free to share with the young artists in your life!

Have fun!

Wizard Week!

Every week, my amazing artists have been asking for a Wizard Week and I'm excited to share that it's here! This week I have a fun line-up with some surprises sprinkled throughout that you'll only know about if you join Art Class with Cassie LIVE!

To join me LIVE, you can find me on my Instagram or my Facebook at 11am CT. If you ever miss out, not to worry! All art classes are posted to my YouTube channel the very next day. I share videos there almost every day so you might want to subscribe so you don't miss a thing!

Like nearly every week, let's kick this one off with a Wizard Selfie! I'll share lots of different ways to draw yourself as a wizard.

Who doesn't want a baby dragon? If you don't have construction paper, white paper will work great too! 

 Every wizard needs a castle! Let's design and draw yours!

 I've been getting a lot of unicorn requests so let's make one out of salt dough clay! I'll share with you how to make your clay first. No ingredients? Grab your Play-Doh or other favorite clay instead!

 We'll end our week with some Potion Bottle Pop-Ups!

I hope y'all are as excited about this week as I am! Big thanks to our sponsors Art to Remember and Ticonderoga! Y'all are simply the best. Be sure and check them out!
