my sister’s first class!!! {Skillshare}

WARNING: PROUND BIG SISTER POST AHEAD!

I love these pictures of me and my sister. You can totally tell I’m the big sister – and I really like that. They make me smile. She makes me smile.

Lesley is smart, creative, funny, messy (she’ll love me for that one) and a feeler. For all the ways we are similar, we are opposite. She is by far the cooler of the 2 Corbett girls. If you want a Corbett sister to come to your party – invite Lesley. Her giggle will fill the room. If you invite me, I’ll find one person in a corner to have a deep conversation with and then I’ll leave early. Always invite Lesley. Trust me.

 

The face app switch…so creepy and so funny.

My sister might blame me for things, but I like to tell her really she should give me credit. I’ve spent a lifetime having good ideas regarding what she should do. When it is really great idea, which let’s be honest they all are, I don’t give up. Little sisters need big sisters to tell them what to do. It is the natural course of life.

I told you guys a few weeks ago about how my sister introduced me to SkillShare. I was halfway in the first video and already thinking, “Lesley NEEDS to teach!” I’m pretty sure I told her that immediately and began the process of getting her on board with my great idea. She might say it was her idea or someone else’s, but it was mine. And I am always right – at least when it comes to what she should or should not do. Am I right, Les? Yes. Yes, I am.

I am so excited to share with you her very first SkillShare class! You guys – she is so cute. You’ll watch the first video and be jealous I get to call her my sister.

I’m so proud of her. This is her first time to teach and she did such a great job. My mom, kids and I took the class yesterday. We went through it super fast just to see it all before today. The kids are already excited to go back and do it again – slower.

The class is called “Drawing Creative Letters: An Introduction to Lettering for Beginners”

My tips for the class:

• It is designed for adults, but works for kids too.
• If your kids are 10+, they are probably good doing it on their own. You might want to be available if they need help brainstorming.
• If your kids are under 10, I would stick by and walk them through each step.
• The videos are short, so you replay them easily to make sure you aren’t missing any steps.

I have so many giveaway lined up in December on my blog and Instagram! I don’t do many all year, so it is fun to do a bunch this month.

I’m starting with a giveaway from Skillshare in honor of Lesley launching her first class!

2 winners chosen at random

Prize: 1 year Skillshare membership

To enter: enroll in Lesley’s class and submit a project photo by 12/19/16 (details on how to do this are in her course)

Lesley & I will pick our two favorite projects and both will win

Special Notes:

You can follow my links to get 3 months of Skillshare membership for $0.99. Your project is due by 12/19, so if you don’t love your Skillshare membership you have plenty of time to cancel before your 3 months are up, but I’m guessing you won’t want to cancel!

You can read my first post about Skillshare and the classes my kids like the most, so far.

Big sister request:

If you take her course, please leave her a review. I need her to know I was right – again. Also – I might have forced her into a deal if she gets a certain number of students, she has to start going to Crossfit with me. She is super thrilled I tricked her into that deal. She’ll thank me later.
