Flexmarker Colour Combos

***This is a sticky post - please scroll down for more recent posts***
Hi there,
I'm back again with some more hints and tips on the Letraset Blog this week. I'm always being asked about what colours go together - especially when it comes to hair colours. So rather than do a tutorial of how to colour hair I thought I'd just suggest a few colour combinations that I like to use.


The Flexmarkers are perfect for colouring hair, I love the texture you can create with the flicking motion you can use with the brush nib.


My boss - the lovely Paul, at Letraset has given me 2 12-packs of flexmarkers to give away - that's right, 24 flexmarkers plus 2 blenders - worth a whopping £59.98. I requested Set 1 because there's a stunning range of bright colours - wait til you see the funky, bright hair colours on my blog post, and Set 2 because it has a superb selection of skin and natural hair tones. All in all, these 2 sets are a fantastic selection to get you started, or to add to your collection.
So here's what I need you to do to be in with a chance of winning this fab collection
  1. Hop over to my flexmarker hair combo post on the Letraset blog and leave a comment
  2. Copy one of the above pictures and post on your blog sidebar with a link back to this post
  3. Come back here and leave your details in the linky below.
If you don't have a blog then you can enter by please sharing the post on my Facebook Page on your timeline and/or your page or group instead of step 2.


The giveaway will close at 12 noon GMT on Tuesday 10th July, and I'll use random.org to select a winner shortly afterwards.



Thanks for visiting, 
I appreciate any comments

Hi!
Your boss is very generous :) Thank you :)
I like very much your post on colour combos. It is not so easy to colour hair and even to choose right colours.
Now it is much easier :) Thank you!
Cheers!

Oh my word Debbi, I love the hair colours you did. They all look stunning. I don't have any flexi markers at all, but after seeing those beautiful hair colours you have me thinking even I could colour like that too, lol. I have the details in my side bar and I commented on the Letraset post. Im keeping me wee fingers crossed for the skin and natural hair tone set. Thank you to you and Letraset for such an awesome giveaway. Lee x

I have tried to fufill all your instructions. I couldn't get the picture to post on my side bar, so I posted and shared on FB. I think these markers are awesome. I'm not quite sure if they sell them in the US, I haven't ever heard of them. Though I really really want them now!!! :)

Debbie, I posted here about 7-10 days ago, I had posted on FB because I was having trouble posting on my blogs sidebar. Well I finally figured it out and got you posted on my sidebar, and I wrote a blog post about your blog. I am so incredibly techno challenged...
it's rather embarassing. Hoping you are well.
Blesssings,

Hi Debbie, Well I did find some suppliers for the Letraset Markers, now I have my fingers crossed I could still win, but realistically I would like to know if I had to buy 2 or 3 pens to have for Art Journaling, which would be the must have's to have in my arsenal?? I'm a fledgling and am trying to build my supplies a few pieces at a time. Being on disability doesn't allow me to spend a whole lot on any given item, so I am building a piece here and there. I just don't know which the must have's for this brand are. Any advice?? Thanks love!!
