THE WINNER IS CHRISTINA FROM CHRISINA'S CREATIVE MOMENTS!
One World One Heart is a worldwide event for bloggers only. It gives all those who blog a chance to meet and mingle and form connections with those they may not have otherwise met from all over the world. In the past 4 years this event has grown to over 1,000 participants with lasting friendships (and even one love connection) formed along the way. Think of it as a GIGANTIC open house allowing you to travel without ever leaving your home........going from blog to blog(in various countries) seeing the wonder each one has created and meeting all the fabulous people behind those blogs. As a bonus each blogger participant will offer up a "door prize or prizes"....just for dropping by, saying hello and seeing their world. It's really that easy.
Welcome to Diane Did It!!! I love mixed media art! I especially love fabric, tho, so even when I digress from that media, most of my pieces seem to begin and end with fabric. My OWOH doorprize is a 12x12 wall hanging about the color purple!
True to form, Purple Soul begins with a piece of muslin on which I adhere all sorts of paper and scrips and scraps of purple fabric sealed with tissue paper and topped by some Jolee scrapbooking flowers and free motion quilted flowers. It's 12 in. x12 in. and all about purple. Finished with quilt binding (had to get more fabric in there!).
If you would like a chance to win Purple Soul, just leave a comment, making sure there is a way to contact you if you are the lucky winner. I will use a random number generator to pick the blog post that reveals the winner. That winner will be announced Feb. 17th and that I will email the winner as well as post it.
I know this is a crazy time to be browsing other posts on people's blogs, but if you like mixed media/fiber art, click to "follow" this blog and come back to visit now and then! I only post about art and I try to give some steps for each piece I post so that you can get inspiration.
Thanks for stopping by!
Been a follower since last OWOH :) I love "Purple Soul" it is lovely. My post is up as well...I had taken it down after Lisa said, but I see many others up, and put mine back up. She said I was too early, but it is indeed the 30th! LOL

Hello There, Such a wonderful giveaway - let me share with you something very special about your gift...
ReplyDeleteJust before my Mum passed away (a little over a year ago) she spoke to me saying that she was going to give me a 'word' that this word would be a special word, and that if any of my friends told me this word, then I would know that she was visiting from the other side - It has taken over a year for my friends to finally 'connect' and tell me that word..... the word my Mum whispered to me, the special word - was of course PURPLE!!
Finding this post, reading the words you have written upon your Purple Soul was like reading a message from my Mum. I would dearly love to win this prize, but would also be delighted if you would allow me to buy a print, or print a copy of it to put on my wall in my art room...... thank you for touching my soul xo
