It is that time again and it is a Magic Carpet Ride...One World, One Heart is a blogging event that was started by Lisa Swiftco of the Whimsical Bohemian...It has grown to epic proportions and last year, included bloggers from all over the world.....Please click on the logo on my sidebar to go to Lisa's blog and find out how to participate...
As far as my blog, WELCOME and thank you for coming by....I was in the event last year, and made some really good friends...I also won three wonderful giveaways and got to visit all kinds of beautiful blogs...Blogs that I never would have found on my own! For my blog give away, just leave a comment with a way for me to reach you in case your name is drawn....please also feel free to look around and have a little visit...I love company! You must have an active blog to participate in this giveaway since it is a blogging event.......It ends February 15th when will draw a winner....
Here is my prize:
It is a handmade charm necklace on a gunmetal colored chain.....I wore one of these to a craft fair and people were coming up to me asking where I got it, so I thought it might make a nice prize....It is a longer necklace, and it looks really pretty against a sweater or plain blouse....I also have decided, for every 100 entries, I will be adding another giveaway to this post and they will get bigger....So leave a comment, have a look around and go visit some blogs! This is going to be fun.....Melinda
Update: It is The second day of One world, One Heart and I have over 150 comments! holy cow...I am answering them and also visiting blogs and seeing so many woderful things...After a lot of thought I am going to cap out the prizes at three....I just dont want to overextend and have anyone be disappointed....so My second prize is a custom quilted and painted pet portrait....There are about 11x 13 roughly and really fun....Here are a couple I have done.....
this is Elvis in real life.....
and here he is made into a quilt for his owner......
I did one for One World One heart last year and Marilyn Butler won...This is her cat Emma......
%5B1%5D.jpg)
and here is Emma immortalized in a quilt just for her mom.....(she was really hard to do with all the grey).....
Thanks again everyone for stopping by and keeping me so busy!!!!!

what a unique necklace I have never seen anything like it
I enjoyed visiting your blog
you have a lot of interesting art
and don't let anyone tell you that ghosts aren't real .
right after we were married we were looking for a place to live and went out to this old farm house it didn't feel right we went inside to look around and could hear children playing upstairs and when we walked upstairs we could hear footsteps following us on the stairs and of course there were no kids to be found.
we did not rent the house and as far as i know it was said to have a sad history and has never been rented or lived in for very long.
Ghost are real
I am having a lot of fum flying from blog to blog on the magic carpet. it will take me forever to get thru all the entries since i am spending time on each on enjoying everyones creativity
