I JUST WANTED TO UPDATE THIS POST--THE PARTY DOESN'T START UNTIL MIDNIGHT TONIGHT, SO I'LL BE BACK TOMORROW (MONDAY)
If you hadn't noticed on my sidebar, I am participating in the One World One Heart event this year. It starts this Sunday, and ends on Feb. 17. This is the first time I'll be joining in, and this is also the last year that this event will be happening.
If you hadn't noticed on my sidebar, I am participating in the One World One Heart event this year. It starts this Sunday, and ends on Feb. 17. This is the first time I'll be joining in, and this is also the last year that this event will be happening.
Lisa from A Whimsical Bohemian blog is the one we must thank for putting this together for the 5th year. Last year, I'm pretty sure she said that there were around 1000 participants---all having a giveaway. Nowhere but in blogland can you do something like this--just one big world-wide party--so much fun!
So since I'm swimming in painted papers at the moment, I knew that I had to use some of these for my giveaway. I really should say that I'm drowning in them, not only painted ones, but scrapbook papers too. I've been to Michael's (not good). Have you seen the K & Co. Flora and Fauna new line? and not just the papers, but the ephemera and all of the other little embellishments that go with this line--beautiful!!
So here's a little sneak peek of my giveaway for this Sunday--
I just can't get over how much I like cutting up my painted papers for collage. Actually, the reason that I'm not showing you more, is because I'm not finished yet......but almost. But I do know one thing for sure---there'll be more than one giveaway!
So if you want to take part in this event, and yes you can, go here and check it out. See you all on Sunday!

so much fun, and i love what you do with all your papers. i have my little piece of art you sent me in my office and everyone loves it. i keep getting asked "did you make this?" ha-ha.

I just love little sneak peeks. I spy a butterfly - and flowers. I know your gift is going to be gorgeous. I've been working on my post - so nervous and excited for Sunday! :) Theresa
I enjoy OWOH because it gives us all a chance to meet others you are in the creative process. I think Lisa did a great thing by introducing the idea and it took off. This is my second time and I regret not joining in the previous events because it is now over. I'll be posting mine on Sunday as well and then adding it to my sidebar for the attendees. It's fun.
oh, jump on over to my blog, i left a little award for you! xo
I was walking in your blog and i now understand why Kelly likes you and your work. I understand her love for her lovely womens with beautiful eyes too...
Your works is very interesting and full of imagination.
Kisses end sorry for my bad english.
Congratulation for your award...

I'm joining in the OWOH event, too. The papers look delishious. :) See you on Sunday.
You're going to have a fabulous time!!! I'm so happy that you're participating this year -- it's quite an event! Hugs, Terri xoxo
Wow, what a fantastic blog. I am now a follower. I work on fabric, but same principles apply. I am moving more into mixed media. You are an inspiration.
The sneak peeks are great! I too am drowning in paper - thinking of what I can make with all of it and yes, tearing it apart is in its future! LOL
Oh wow looking great! The papers are wonderful - you are so clever!
Great papers Diane,

Hi Diane. Thanks for your very kind comment.
Your papers and your blog, are gorgeous! I'm hoping to participate-I'm a last minute gal ;)
Have a nice sunday.
Hi Diane this is also a first for me.
Your papers are just so beautiful.
it's great to be part of this isn't
it,
Suzy
Diane, your gypsy is to die for. I absolutely love her. If you don't mine, what kind of crackle did you use. I think I've tried all of them and get mixed results. I love the way yours looks! See you at OWOH! This is my second year and I love it.
I'm participating too and have to say I was so confused by the start date, I guess I'll leave mine up anyway, I hope that's within the rules. You can bet I'll be back for a chance at your giveaway.
xoxo Kim
I'm participating too, and made the same mistake, lol! It said it started the 30th, which is today. Oh well, lots of us seem to have jumped the gun :-)
I love nice papers too, and now after reading your post, I will have to check out that Flora and Fauna line, it sounds wonderful!
These are great! Collage is fun to do. I haven't done any for quite a while but you are inspiring me to start again.
Hello Diana :-)
your beautiful creations, warm colors ... beautiful:)
a greeting Mary (Italy
Oooh I can't wait to see more! I'm thinking of signing up too! Maybe I'll "see" you there! Thanks for your sweet comment this am! It really made my day!
I seem to have jumped the gun. When I learned I was a day early, I already had comments, so have no idea if they would be there if I put my post back in draft mode.

Oh what fun. Your work just keeps on getting better. Love all the textures and colors too. thanks for the kind comments. Each day gets a little easier.
Hi Diane!
I just wanted to thank you so much for your time in watching the video at the House of Art and for your comment - it means a lot. Yes I will be doing textures next month (and cutting the video in 1/2 I promise:). Thank you and Happy Tuesday, xoxo
Stunning artwork! Count me in please! #269
