One world, one heart

Photo

I've seen this on a couple of blogs and decided that I would like to take part myself. You can read all about the rules and regulations here and decide if you want to take part yourself. So now onto my giveaway.................

I already have my own copy of this book and there are some lovely ideas in it.

To be in with a chance of winning this book you must have an active blog and add a comment on this post. All valid comments received up to and before midnight (UK time) on February 11th will go into the draw and the winner will be drawn on February 12th 2009 and announced on my blog. This is an international event and entries are welcome from all bloggers all over the world. Good luck.

If you're an artist or creative crafter who'd like to join in please visit Lisa Swifkas blog for more details. We'd love to have more people aboard our "gypsy caravan" as its also called.

Edited to add that as there are many people taking part in this 'give away' who don't make jewellery, as a second prize I will make one of the projects from the book to send. I'm not sure which one yet but will post piccies when I've decided :)
