Left-handed? You're very welcome. This class is designed with lefties in mind — we teach you to get ink flowing through your nib with confidence, whatever hand you use.

Your Instructor

Growing up, Shannon was surrounded by friends and family who cherished creativity. She loved picking out pretty scrapbook paper with her mom, making cards with her best friends, and practicing drawing and photography with her brother and dad. In 2014, Shannon's now husband purchased a ticket to a calligraphy workshop for her as a Christmas gift (she knew he was a keeper then!), which really sparked her love for lettering. Shannon started peach & paperie in 2017 and has spent the last few years lettering everything from envelopes to macarons, designing wedding stationery + greeting cards, and painting watercolors. When Shannon isn't working on art, you can find her baking treats or exploring other cities. Shannon is obsessed with all things pineapple and can't say no to anything sweet (including her maltipoo's puppy eyes). Creating for others and helping people celebrate their favorite moments has brought Shannon so much joy. She can't wait to meet you and share this passion of hers with you in Sip & Script classes!
