One world-ONE heart by Lisa!

Of course, you, who know me, also know it takes me a little time to catch on to this blog stuff. Any way I just discovered the ONE world-ONE heart giveaway by Lisa. This is a fabulous idea. I am making my earlier giveaway of the valentine box post be a part of this event!
PS- LISA WAS KIND ENOUGH to walk me thru 4 emails so I could be part of this event. I edited my giveaway post to reflect OWOH and her link. I learned 3 new things today!!!!
Thanks lisa!

Theme Thursday "Spring"

My first class at Castles in the Air"

Added frosting trim and rest of the hearts to my cake!

Felted valentine
cake box> 3" dia,
lined with florentine
paper, on german
scrap. Everything is felted with a needle. The only glue used was to line the inside of the box top and bottom. Fabulous teacher, 8 students.
I think I was very close to heaven!

February Treat!

Family on my husband's mother's side. 3"x4" in fold over card holder. She is so pretty and I do not know her name and she is a relative. I thought it would be nice to send her off on a new journey. She will be sent to the 3rd name drawn!

I decided to add this 4"x4" unframed collage for OWOH as a 2nd piece of art to name of winner number 2. You have all been so nice to comment and visit and I have enjoyed visiting the blogs!


This month I am offering this 2 1/4" box to the winner of drawing, February 14th!
A small surprise is inside. To enter your name in
the lottery, just leave a comment here at my blog. Thanks for playing!
