After Eight Cottage

So this is After Eight Cottage purely because it’s full of them.

The After Eight Mint chocolates can be slipped out at the bottom of the door. The are perfect for this being individually wrapped.

I made a fence and a double gate from a Martha Stewart punch so there is entry to the chocolates.

I added the house on top of a board and covered it with a snow sheet and bought a tree ornament of a Christmas tree and wrapped it in fairy lights.

I’ve been a keen follower of Creations by AR for such a long time now and way way back made her Haute Tote Bags and thought this time I would give the Tea Cottage a twist to it’s tail.

Of course as there is lights we had to have a night scene picture and all the photos are courtesy of my wonderful husband Chris.

Honest I've only eaten one of the chocolates and that was purely because it fell in my mouth.

I think you’ll agree these design templates are amazing from Creations by AR

Making your images Pop with Letraset

I've always been a firm believer that you do not need to stick to one medium for your art work, mixing and matching can make your images pop off the page and add new dimension's to what would be a flat looking image.

At the moment Metallic Marks have 20% off so there couldn't be a better time to stock up on some of them.

here is how I used both ProMarker and Metallic Markers on the image. you can click on the image to enlarge it.

I think you'll agree the end result is gorgeous.

I'm giving away a set of the metallic Markers All you need to do is leave me a comment to enter and spread the word so tell all your friends.

Oh yes, if you also leave a comment on the  Letraset Blog you will have two chances of winning.
