TLC's Crafty Designs

Don't you just love to win things, well I know I do and Roberta at Prairie Fairy Designs, has moved back to blogger and has a new contest. Here is a picture of what she is giving away. Just go here to enter.

Well I have found this great contest about Promarkers you can go here and check it out. Like I said they are cheaper then Copic's and I think just as good. So hop on over and see if you can win. I know I am going to try. Teresa

Okay, well I have been away for awhile but I am going to try to do better. So I thought I would tell you guys that I have been wanting markers, yes I know I am a grownup but I have been wanting markers just the same for quit some time. And I think I have finely figuered out which ones, I am going to get. I was looking at Copics for awhile but they are just to expensive, but then I found Promarkers , made by Letraset . They are used mostly in the UK but more and more they are being used here in the States. A company called Carpe Diem has the Promarkers for $1.49 where as the Copic Ciao are $2.49 Copic Sketch $3.95, now the copics are refillable and the nibs are replaceable but what I like about the Promarkers also is the nibs on them are finer. To get into smaller places and the Copic nibs are not as fine. Now this is all just my opinion, I have not used the Promarkers yet but I do have a few Copics but now I plan on getting on the rest of the Promarkers which come in 148 ...

Here is a new contest, and this one is for Promarker, made by Letraset, just go here . This lady's name is Enfy's (pronounced Envis) her cards are great . She made the with these markers. They are great. You have to check it out and sign up to be in the contest.

Okay guys today is the day for the new Gypsy update. You know the one, where you get 6 free cartridges, that is if you have registered your Gypsy before October 31. Old or new it does not matter. Well that is a big since just one these cartridges are 89.99 at some places, so this is a big deal. But getting the update is not so easy if you go to the original website, that won't work. This is the website you need to go to here . And just follow the instructions and you will be fine. So here is what you will be getting with your Gypsy, you will get the two cartridges that come with the Gypsy, Gypsy Font Gypsy Wanderings The New Smiley cards Tags, Bags, Boxes, and More Christmas Blackletter Indie Art Printing Press So if you add all that to gether that would be a $419 Value, now that is a great thing. Well I hope you got in on this deal because it is a good one. Thanks Provo Craft

I really think this is a great idea, Provo Craft has really done it this time. Have I every told you I love my Cricut Expression , well I do. But I have not always loved everything that Provo Craft does, but coming out with a smaller version of the Cricut cake is a great idea, check it out here . The first one is much larger in my opinion and not very cost affective if you do not make a lot of cakes. But the mini is like the Cricut Create (baby bug). So for home use it is much better and you can cut other things too. Like cheese, tortillas , cookie dough and more. So head to your local Joann's Fabrics and Crafts tomorrow to get your because that is when they go on sell. Ain't it cute, and it will be just right for your kitchen. Not to big. I can't wait, it should be cheaper the the other one too. Well that is all for today. Teresa
