I have wanted to do the ONE WORLD ONE HEART bloggers event for 3 years now and I always missed out, the first two years I missed the deadline and then last year I took down my website right before it was to start and did not have time to rebuild my art site as a blog.  (I have other blogs on other subjects as well, it ends up being easier than running a huge site for a few simple things)

Now I have started to get my art back up on this blog and even though it is the last OWOH I am thrilled to be involved!

I am an 42 yr old artist from Boise Idaho who loves to do all kinds of art and crafting, and who currently has a Art Journal addiction.  I am working my way through last years OWOH Blog List and finding great sites to inspire me and I hope that something on my site can inspire others someday.

ONE WORLD ONE HEART is an event that allows arty bloggers from around the world to find each other and for fun we offer a “doorprize” for checking out our sites, this also gives us a chance to see other people’s work and let them see ours.   It is basically an open house of blogs, with the main purpose of introducing people to blogs they were not aware of before, and letting us find one another in the great big world of the internet.

Here is what I am offering as a Grand door prize:

The ART IN MY BAG Door Prize

I have different types of art I have made:

An 8×8 inch oil pastel painting on stretched canvas

Three Art trading card magnets using vintage images

A small zentangle in a small ornate metal frame (2×2.5 in)

Four Art Trading card backgrounds made out of actual vintage paper (images from a 1955 pattern catalog) suitable for finisheing if you wish

A 20 inch glass bead necklace (clear and iridescent beads) with a small clear glass heart

A 17 inch rainbow glass beaded necklace with 3 handmade antique glass beads

A handmade (not by me) Blue and white blown glass pendant

Four packages of Bindi (Indian facial jewelry stickers) these are great for crafting or wearing

Two 24 packs of Brads, silver with red and iridescent blue/white

A small credit card size magnifying glass that fits into a wallet

A large lightweight ornate metal key

Six small fancy pens with the words Elements, Tidbits, Treasures, Keepsakes, Stuff and Vintage on them (these resemble those old fashion pins for securing keys to your swimsuit)

And

25 very all cotton swabs usually used in electronics
