One World-One Heart Blog Tour Begins!

Welcome to my blog!  This is the fifth and final One World - One Heart event sponsored by The Whimsical Bohemian.  Over the days of this event, bloggers can visit hundreds of other blogs and enter free draws at each one.  It's a great opportunity to get to know other bloggers, find inspiration and start new friendships.  Prize draws will take place at the end of the event on February 17th.

I started blogging a year ago and the One World - One Heart event introduced me to many wonderful bloggers who I have continued to follow.  One of the best parts of my day is spent visiting my favourite blogs with my early morning cup of tea in hand.  And I love reading the comments that other bloggers leave for me.

I am a mixed media artist (as in mix of media because I enjoy trying so many different things).  I enjoy sharing my work and my processes, as well as glimpses of my life.  



My draw prize is this packet of handmade paper cards made from plant fibres and recycled paper.  Block prints. Envelopes included.   Winner will be selected by random number generator at 8:00 pm PST on February 17th.  All you have to do to enter is leave a comment with a link so I can notify you if you are my winner.


I hope you'll join us for this fun event.

  18. Nice stuff here, I'm REALLY impressed with the moose poo series.
    Let me know if you would consider trading something for a sheet of your moose poo paper. I may just have to try this myself when I get back to Alaska!!!
    Now that I'm in Arizona I wonder what javelina poo paper would be like, haha!
    Your blog made me smile the most today out of this blog hop.

  22. Hi Liz-Anna,

    Are they moose poo paper? What a hoot, I LOVE it! I had know idea, natural fibers is one thing, but that's some NATURAL fiber.

    Seriously, I love your papers, what a excellent craft. I have some tall grass growing in my garden and I use the the shoots every year, but I never thought of making grass leaf paper.

    Thank you.
