OWOH is here!!


Whoo hoo!! One World One Heart is officially
here! Are you excited? I know I am!

This is my fourth year to participate, and I've
enjoyed every one--"meeting" new bloggers, and
doing some serious blog snooping!

My name is Trisha, or trisha too in the intraweb
world. We're a homeschool family; two graduated
and in college, two more to go! I love all things
art, and like to try different media and techniqes.
Right now, I'm exploring simple bookbinding, so if
you have a favorite how-to book, please let me know!
:)


My first OWOH offering is a bamboo tile
pendant made with a transfer of some vintage
French postage, copper wire and charm, and
glass beads. There is also a trim of tiny
French blue rik-rak surrounding the edge, and
it's coated in a protective finish.


Next is a new acrylic alphabet stamp set
from Martha Stewart Crafts--it also has
six sets of fancy fine frames. It's the
Ornamental Monograms set.

And finally, depending on how many comments
I get, there will be fun little atc making
kits for you to create your own artist trading
cards. Each will come complete with backgrounds,
all kinds of ephemera like vintage stamps, sheet
music bits, etc, plus lace, collage images, even
the protective sleeves--and whatever else strikes
my fancy at the time! There will be at least
four sets of these, and, like I said, maybe
more. If you'd like a better idea of what
kind of treats might be included, browse around
my blog and check out the arty stuff--you'll
probably get a good idea of what the bits and
pieces will be like! There are at least
six chances to come away with something here!

This probably isn't your first OWOH stop, but
here are some pertinent details:
1. You must have an active blog to participate.
Not a private secret blog that no one can see,
but one we can visit--that was the original
point of OWOH!

2. If you're one of the fortunate randomly
selected goodie-getters, I will contact
you via e-mail after the event ends Feb.
17th. SO, please leave your e-mail addy
in your comment! If there is no response
within 48 hours, another lucky goody-getter
will be chosen.

3. While I always love and appreciate new
followers--and follow back when I can
find you--you don't have to follow or
join or subscribe or any of that stuff!

So, hello to my old and new imaginary friends!
Enjoy the fifth and final year of OWOH. This is
a tremendous undertaking, and Lisa has done a
wonderful job each and every year--be sure to
tell her a special thank you for her efforts.

:)

P.S I always visit all my OWOH comment leavers
after the event ends; it may take me some time
to get around to you, but be expecting me to
stop by!
