This post will stay at the top of my blog until the winners are drawn on the 17th, but click older posts or scroll down to see new posts!
Lisa has so graciously hosted this event for five years! Time to go out with a BANG!
Lately I've had a growing love of mixed media techniques. Playing with so many media really makes me happy. So, this year I've made up a special piece of mixed media art to always remind the lucky winner of the fifth and final One World One Heart giveaway!
It is a finished 8X10 inch canvas ready to hang anywhere. I can just see it in a girl's room, crafty space, or just about anywhere. I used texture paste, collaging, watercolor crayons, stickles, and a billion other arty supplies to create this little Queen of One World One Heart. She holds a globe in the shape of a heart to remind us all of the wonderful giving event.
Since I couldn't just give away one prize I tried my hand at something completely new for another chance for everyone to win! I've always admired paper pieced quilting and found a wonderful free pattern here: http://artisania.wordpress.com/free-patterns/
With my love of gnomes I knew just what I had to do; make a mug rug for one lucky person to perch their coffee or tea and a snack on!
I'm pleased as can be with my first go at paper piecing! The mug rug is 11x 6 1/2 inches. Perfect for a large mug and a muffin, perhaps.
All you have to do is leave a comment on this post! Say hi, tell me something you like about crafting, leave a joke or a useless bit of knowledge. I'll accept anything as an entry!
Winners will be announced here on February 17th with the help of a random number generator. First winner drawn will have their choice of prize with following winners getting other prize(s). Please be sure you have an email address attached in some way to your comment. Be it leave it in the comment or have an active blog account so I can reach you if you win. If I cannot contact the winners or have not heard from them within 3 days I will be forced to choose new winners.
Let's all visit as many blogs as possible, make new friends, and maybe even win some wonderful prizes! Good luck everyone and thanks so much for taking the time to stop by and say hello!
Due to overwhelming amounts of comments I am adding a 3rd prize!
I promised another prize if I hit 300 comments so I'm making good! I thought I'd share another thing I've really loved creating. A wee fairy journal! It will look something along the lines of this:(Although it will not be this one as it was given as a gift)
A wee book full of fun papers and bits and bobs inspired by the wee folk! Tiny drawings, feathers, fabrics, rusty goods ect.
I will post a pic of the actual fairy journal when it is completed so stay tuned!
Thanks everyone for the wonderful comments!

Hello from Australia!
I've come to admire people who can do great mixed media art (of which you are one!)... I can't paint or draw, so if I were to make something, I'm sure it'd turn into a disaster! :P
