Congratulations! For the Papier Plume ink Bootlegger’s Sacrament, LJD was selected. For Papier Plume Da Blue, it was Meg Weglarz. Please contact me through the link on the blog with your name and address by May 1 to claim the prize. Or let me know if you’re coming to the Chicago Pen Show, and can pick it up there, and I can add some extra stuff.

Thanks to everyone who participated. Papier Plume will be selling these inks at the Chicago Pen Show, May 3-6, and then afterwards on their website, if any remain.

Here’s the Bootlegger’s Sacrament list. Excuse any misspellings.

Papier Plume Giveaway: Da Blue and Bootlegger’s Sacrament

Papier Plume Da Blue and Bootlegger's Sacrament

Thanks to Papier Plume, I’ve got a bottle of each of the two inks Papier Plume made for the 2018 Chicago Pen Show to give away through the blog.

This year’s inks are Bootlegger’s Sacrament and Da Blue. They are beautiful colors, in beautiful bottles, and Papier Plume intends to make no more of either after this batch of 120 of each sells out.

To enter to win all you have to do is leave a comment about the inks down below. I’ll put you down for both, unless you say that you only want one, but the first winner won’t be entered in the second drawing. I’ll draw for Bootlegger’s Sacrament first, then Da Blue.

One entry per person please, and please let your friends know. It’s a nice thing to do. If they win, they’ll love you forever. And I’m sure you can get some ink out of them.

I will select the two winners on April 25, using a random number generator, and then post their names here on the blog. So be sure to check back. Once announced, each winner must contact me by May 1 to claim the prize. If you’re coming to the Chicago Pen Show, I applaud you — and more to the point, I’ll give you the ink in person. Otherwise I’ll mail it. Thanks for entering.

Additional rules: If any prize isn’t claimed by May 1, 2018, it expires. Retail price of the ink is $10 per bottle. Prize is not transferable, and has no cash value. Odds depend on number of entries. No purchase necessary. Purchase will not improve odds of winning. Entrants must be 18 years of age. Void where prohibited by law.

Ink Review: Papier Plume Da Blue

Papier Plume Da Blue

Papier Plume Da Blue. This is a gray-leaning blue-black ink, with an itsy bitsy hint of green. Da Blue ink pays tribute to the Chicago Bears football team, and is one of two limited-edition inks that Papier Plume of New Orleans is bringing to the Chicago Pen Show next month.
