Watercolour Christmas

Thankyou to everyone who took the time to enter my candy - I really appreciate your comments :)
This week I'm going to be showing you the watercolour cards we made during the Aquamarker Christmas Card class at the September Retreat at The Papeterie.
This was a much easier technique than it looks - you'll find all the info for this and the 2 other techniques on my post on the Letraset Blog.

Again I'm giving some markers away - because this is an Aquamarker post, I'm giving away some Aquamarkers....

So all you have to do to enter the candy is.... comment on my post on the letraset blog and leave your details on the inlinkz below - if you want to share this post in blogland or on facebook or twitter please feel free :)
this candy will end at 12 noon GMT on Saturday 2nd November.

2013 Limited Edition Promarkers

Hi again,
I'm back again with another giveaway for you - this time it's a biggie.
This is something I'm asked for quite a lot when Letraset release new or Limited Edition colours.... where do they fit in with the existing pallette? well this is something that I really enjoy doing - apart from colouring - is just playing around with colour and seeing what works and what doesn't.

You will find my blending suggestion chart on the Letraset blog, so please leave a comment there then come back here to enter my giveaway.
This will run for a couple of weeks, so once you've left a comment there please leave your details on the inlinkz below and share this either on your own blog or facebook.
NB - you can't copy pics from my blog - a link to my giveaway is fine

So what could you win?
not just one LE set....
but 2 LE sets :)
Good luck
here's the inlinkz

Altered Wine Box and a Giveaway

Thank you to everyone who took the time to enter my candy, I really appreciate it.
I'm giving away some more goodies, but more about that later.
First I'm going to show you about the second project I taught at the September Retreat at The Papeterie. I decided to alter a wine box using Letraset Alcohol Inks.
The thing I like the most about alcohol inks is the fact that they dry almost instantly - no waiting for paints to dry! I have no patience lol
So we started off with a blank wine box and various surfaces - see materials list below.
And this is what we made...
 Materials List:
*#Letraset Alcohol Inks: various blues, greens, yellows and pinks
*Sizzix Fence die
*Tim Holtz Fringe die
*Tim Holtz Tattered Florals die
*Tim Holtz Tattered Leaves die
*Canvas
*Acetate
*Glossy card
*Tim Holtz Tissue wrap
*Aspen White paper
*Buttons
* available at The Papeterie
# available from Letraset

This week I'm giving away a Promarker Skin Tones 1 pack.
All you have to do this time is leave a comment here and add your details to the inlinkz - if you want to spread the word on facebook/twitter/blogland then please do but its not a necessity.
