PFP midway reminder

Passion for ProMarkers


Week 523–Midway reminder for the Mega Christmas challenge!

Good morning crafters.  Wow where did the last two weeks disappear to?  We cannot believe it’s only one more sleep until the BIG day arrives – we’re sure you are all sitting back and relaxing waiting to find out what Santa has brought you – you’ve all been good girls and boys right?

Well we are now half way through our Mega Christmas challenge and we have to say we are stunned by all your gorgeous entries so far.  The theme is “anything goes” and don’t forget you still have until 7th January 2020 to enter our challenge, although there is a maximum of 3 entries per person.

Merry Chistmas.

PFP

Passion for ProMarkers

It's nearly Christmas so here at Passsion for Promakers we have a Mega Christmas Challenge.

This week we are launching our very special “Mega Christmas challenge” which runs for a whole month and ends on 7th January 2020!  I’m sure you’ll agree that both design teams have worked extremely hard once again this year and they deserve a little break to catch up on their last minute gifts and cards.  However to make up for the lack of challenges we have some fantastic prizes up for grabs!

Our very simple theme for the Mega Christmas challenge is “anything goes”.  We would like to see absolutely anything for this challenge, no restrictions apart from the obvious one of course!  You are welcome to make Christmas creations but as the challenge will still be running after the ‘BIG’ day you can of course make any type of creation.  As time is precious for our DT at this time of year we are limiting the number of entries you can make to just 3 for this month long challenge.  Please remember to be eligible for our prizes you must use your promarkers, flex markers, tria markers, metallic or aqua markers.  Please can you help us by stating which Letraset products you have used on your creation i.e. ‘coloured with promarkers’ etc.  Thanks x x


So now for the exciting bit – the prizes!
