OWOH - One World One Heart Blog Event!

***This post will remain at the top of my blog until Feb 17th, Please see my newest posts below this one.



So Today is the start of the 5th and final One World One Heart Blog Event. I will be sad to see it go but very glad to have been able to participate because it is a great opportunity to meet wonderful people from all over the world, make some new friends, and share my passions with others.
And then there are the prizes! How fun! To sign up for my prizes just leave a comment to sign up for more prizes and to meet more people go to....
http://awhimsicalbohemian.typepad.com/a_whimsical_bohemian/one-world-one-heart-1.html
I love anything to do with vintage things, mixed media art, and blogging. I have 11 blogs! (Hi my name is Thespa and I am a blog-a-holic)
Currently I am hard at work making Mixed Media video art classes with a sponsorship from Prilosec OTC.
All my video art classes will be FREE to the public with no advertising and no sales. I just finished my first video this weekend and should have it up on my Vlog soon. You can find a link to the Mixed Media Art Class site in my sidebar.
For my door prizes I am giving away several things.
The first was the subject of my first free video art class...
A "Decayed Elegance Necklace" that features hand dyed fabric rosettes and a vintage key with rhinestones.

The second...
In the spirit of the "heart" in the OWOH is a  sculpey clay valentine ornament.

The third...

A stained glass ornament featuring a vintage photo in a 3 dimensional layered style with hand stamped images.

So what are you waiting for, leave a comment for your chance to win.
And don't forget to leave a way for me to contact you. Either your email or link to your site where contact info can be found. *Check your contact links to be sure they are working*

***Also I'm taking suggestions for Free Mixed media Art Classes***
1. What kinds of "technique" classes would you like to see.
2. What kinds of "project" classes would you like to see.
If you have any suggestions on these two styles of videos I would love to hear them.

Thanks for visiting me and I hope you have a wonderful time visiting all the wonderful blogs on the OWOH!
Thanks so much to Lisa Swifka for hosting this event! You ROCK girl!
