One World One Heart 2011


Hi there!

Welcome to my blog and the fifth and final edition of One World One Heart. 
Thanks to our host Lisa Swifka you can hop from blog to blog again, to meet the most creative and lovely people all over the world and while you are doing that, just leave ONE comment per blog to win the most incredible prizes. This give away will be open for bloggers only, that is how Lisa intended this major blogger event.  It is meant to meet other bloggers and to see what their blog is all about. 
This event will start now.  I will close comments on February 17th and let a random generator choose the winner. I'll announce the winner on my blog on February 18th and I will contact the winners through their blog. 
If you want to be hopping and have fun just check here for the list of participants of One World One Heart 2011. The list is getting larger and larger each year, I wonder if Lisa gets any sleep these days.  



Hallo, 
Welkom allemaal bij de vijfde en laatste editie van One World One Heart. 
Dankzij onze lieftallige gastvrouw Lisa Swifka kun je tijdens dit blogger event van blog naar blog hoppen, kennis maken met de meest creatieve bloggers en en passant, door middel van EEN commentaar nog prijzen winnen ook, wat wil je nog meer?  Je moet wel een actieve blog hebben om mee te kunnen doen, het gaat immers om bloggers die bloggers ontmoeten. Het event eindigt op 17 februari en de 18de zal ik hier laten weten wie mijn prijzen gewonnen heeft. De lijst met deelnemers vind je hier.

Well what can you win at LiLi's place?
I wanted to have a give away that reflects who I am. I like a lot of things: vintage, retro, I love to craft, to travel, see lovely old cities and villages and art galleries... I'm fond of chocolate and snail mail. 
So this is what I came up with:
The prize is: a snail mail envelop filled with a card, bought or self made, each month of the next year.Starting  February. So every month you will receive a card, that is if you are the winner of this give away.  Of course I will write a sweet message or a quote on the card too. AND there is a chance to win this cheering up experience only once, just keep on reading:

Nu welke prijzen stelt LiLi beschikbaar?
Ik wilde een give away die te maken heeft met wie ik ben. Mmm ik hou van heel veel dingen; vintage, retro, ik vind knutselen leuk, ik hou van geschiedenis, mooie oude stadjes, musea, maar ik ben ook dol op chocolade en op ouderwetse post in enveloppen. 
Dus ik heb dit bedacht:
De prijs is: Gedurende een jaar lang iedere maand gezellige post, dat kan een oude kaart zijn of een kaart die ik zelf gemaakt heb. Op die kaart schrijf ik natuurlijk een gezellig bericht of een mooie quote. Je kunt ook eenmalig een gezellig gevulde brievenbus winnen, blijf lezen! 

Ik laat jullie 12 voorbeelden zien van kaarten die je in je brievenbus zou kunnen krijgen:
I'll show you 12 cards, as examples for what you can expect to find in your mail box. 
1. Some stitchery card.
 een borduur kaart. 

2. an altered vintage card, made by me. 
een oude kaart die ik wat opgeleukt heb. 

3. a vintage card from Holland, where I live. 
Een typische Hollandse kaart.

4. A made by LiLi card with a button card on top, I love buttons, do you?
Een kaart met knopenkaart die ik zelf maakte, ben dol op knopen en jij?

5. A card from the typical Dutch Hema store, they always have crisp and funny designs to cheer you up.  
Een gezellige Hema kaart, van hun vrolijke ontwerpen word ik ook altijd vrolijk. 
6. A card with an attached toy made by me, this one went already to a friend, it is just an example. 
Een kaart met aangehechte zelfgemaakte knuffel, deze is al naar een vriendinnetje, 't is een voorbeeld.  

7. When I visit a museum, I might send you a card.
Als ik een museum bezoek zou ik jou ook een kaart kunnen sturen. 

8. I could send one of my famous ;-) waving hands cards. 
Ik zou je één van mijn befaamde zwaaiende handen kunnen sturen. 

9. Or just a vintage photo.
Of gewoon een antieke foto.  

10. Another card that I myself with a small tin car or tin airplane attached. 
Nog een kaart die ik zelf ontwierp: met aangehecht blikken autootje. 

11. When I visit another town or country I could send you a card. 
Als ik eens een andere stad of land bezoek zou ik jou ook een kaart kunnen sturen. 

12. And I love to make cards with scraps, like this one, that is still here, but could be send to you!
Ik gebruik graag ouderwetse poezieplaatjes om kaarten te maken, deze is nog hier, maar wie weet...

Well what do you think?
Do you like snail mail too or do you think that it is totally old fashioned?
If you like to win a monthly booster in your mailbox, just leave ONE comment. If you add the NUMBER of the card/style you like best you might win the consolation prize: your favorite card. 

Nou wat denk je?
Ben je ook dol op ouderwetse post of vind je dat niet meer van deze tijd?
Als je het leuk vindt om een maandelijkse oppepper per post te winnen hoef je alleen maar 1 commentaar achter te laten. Als je het NUMMER van de kaart die je het meest aanspreekt opschrijft dan maak je kans op de troostprijs van een eenmalig gezellig gevulde brievenbus, als het ff kan met die kaart. 

Veel succes en veel plezier!
Vergeet niet de andere deelnemers te bezoeken, klik hier
Nogmaals bedankt Lisa. 

Good luck and have fun! 
Don't forget to visit the other participants here. Thanks Lisa for hosting this event. 

Nice to meet you, 
LiLi M.

Wat ziet dat er leuk uit al die prachtige kaarten, en jij bent toch altijd weer in staat om van werkelijk ALLES iets moois te maken. Helaas heb ik geen eigen blog, maar ik ga toch wel even wat andere blogs van deze blog hop bekijken.
Groetjes Helga

Julia @ Vintage with Laces said...

That's such a sweet idea, LiLi! It would be just wonderful to receive a lovely card from you every month. Please throw my name into the had, even though I doubt that the luck will strike me again to win your giveaway.
Have a great week, dear friend!
HUGS,
Julia

Ciao very generous lady!
Please don't count me in, I just wanted to say hello!
I saw some Dutch cards and toys while visiting a vintage market yesterday, and immediately thought of you!
Have a great week!

Rostrose said...

Hi dearest LiLi! Your cards are wonderful - and my favourites are the vintage cards ands photos and the waving hands. I really would like to join - what a pitty that this year seems to be very stressy..., so it isn't possible for me... Sorry! But I'm sure there are lots of people who like to join!
Warmest hugs and groetjes, Traude

La Maison said...

Wat is er nu leuker en spannender om post te krijgen.
Een handgeschreven brief of kaart is iets om te bewaren en gelukkig weet jij zulke dingen op waarde te schatten.
Jouw nr.8 kaart met de hand vind ik wel één van de mooiste, maar ook de anderen zijn niet te versmaden.

Lieve groet
Hermine

★Carol★ said...

I can't believe it's time for OWOH already! I discovered some really great blogs last year, and I look forward to doing it again.
I think your giveaway is one of the best ideas. I love snail mail, and I would love to hear from you each month! But if I don't win, I would love a consolation prize of #12, or #6, or #10. Any one would do!
Happy Monday!

Hallo Lili,
Wat een geweldig evenement is dit one world one heart toch.
En wat een ontzettend leuke en originele giveaway heb je ervan gemaakt Lili. Elke maand een kaart....en wat voor kaarten!! Ze zijn prachtig...allemaal, die met dat auto'tje is ook al zoo schattig en origineel zeg. Ik kom je even mijn complimenten brengen hoor!
Ik doe zelf niet mee met de giveaway, want ik ben al zooo ontzettend door jou verwend, lieve blogvriendin, en ik gun iedereen een kans, dus ik moedig aan, en geniet mee vanaf de zijlijn ;-)
Heel veel succes,
Liefs Ester

Lovely things, vintage and chocolate do go together, don't they? I love your giveaway and "snail mail" is so much more personal and thoughtful, especially when it comes from a loving spirit like you do. So, please definitely enter me for your giveaway. I have to say that the #8 card is my favorite. It's so Victorian and I love flowers.

Thank you so much.

WAt een ontzettend leuke en gezellige giveaway heb jij bedacht!!! Ik ben dol op kaarten en brieven - ben natuurlijk een blogger en zelfs een 'webdesigner' maar als het op creatief aankomt - geef mij maar echt papier en pen! Ik zou dolgraag elke maand een kaartje van je krijgen en wie weet, loopt het uit op 'correspondentie' over en weer?! Kaart nr. 11 spreekt mij het meest aan - omdat het me aan het stadhuis van Middelburg deed denken... lang verhaal, andere keer (in een brief?) Anyway, bedankt voor de kans om te winnen, en nog veel plezier met bloghoppen! Marit (#501)

Marjan said...

Wat een leuke give away heb jij bedacht! Ik ben zelf dol op kaarten en brieven, al is het dan misschien niet helemaal meer van deze tijd :-) Maar dat doet er niet toe. De kaart die mij het meest aanspreekt? Da's een lastige, ik vind de meeste wel mooi. De leukste is denk ik toch nr. 12, ik ben dol op die ouderwetse poesieplaatjes.

Snail mail is just about as good as anything can get. I love it so much that I have a couple friends that I swap monthly mail with just so we can have something come in our post box that doesn't happen to be bills! The idea of #6 is totally fun, a little toy that you made attached, how fun!

Michelle said...

Hey Lili, It's so nice to meet you and to discover your blog. I'm from Kentucky, USA. What a fantastic idea to mail out a card a month! I love snail mail... there's nothing more wonderful than opening up the mailbox and finding a letter or card. #12 is my favorite. Please count me in. ~Michelle, OWOH participant 598

Monique Kleinhans said...

I'm humbled by your offer and your idea. How beautiful to receive a note each month...snail mail is a wonderful thing and something that tends to be overlooked and too full of items not connected to us in any way....(spam and bills for the most part)

I love each and every one of your cards (as the idea of getting one in the mail just charms me so!) If I had to choose I would say the card with the little handmade toy attached is my favorite...although I would be thrilled with anything you made.

I hope you'll swing by and visit my site when you get the chance! Happy One World One Heart-ing!

Ha Lili, er is niets bijzonders aan de hand hoor.
Wel is het vandaag de dag dat mijn moeder stierf, maar wel 10 jaar geleden. Het blijft voor mij een memorabele dag, raar maar waar.

Mijn twee dochters verzamelen niets, ja, de oudste echte poezen en paarden, en de jongste boeken.
Maar ze glimlachen om mijn spullen.

Wat heb je al veel reacties, en geen wonder ;))

Liefs
Hermine

Marja Rijnsburger said...

Ken je de uitdrukking "hier ga ik van achteruit lopen" ? Nou ik loop nog net niet achteruit maar wel heel erg achter. Vandaar nu pas mijn bezoekje hier bij jou.
Maar wat een leuke post en wat een geweldige kaarten heb je gemaakt en/of bij elkaar gezocht.
Nu de dozen zijn uitgepakt en bijna alles weer een plekje heeft gevonden hoop ik weer regelmatig te kunnen bloggen en posten. Vandaag nog met wat foto's uit de oude doos maar er komen nieuwe aan.
Een heel fijn "stormachtig" weekend en tot snel.
dikke knuffel van mij.

Don't we all love snail mail? As long as it doesn't come in a brown envelope demanding money that is :P

Castles Crowns and Cottages said...

LIEVE LILI! Oh dearest, yes, I did draw that HUGE drawing of the little girl with the balloon. I don't know why it appeared so large on my page, but I wanted to feature it! How are you mijn vriendin? We are enjoying the hard work of finishing up a two room addition to our home. We are basically done with the painting, but moving into the rooms is not that easy, especially when my husband has SO MUCH JUNK!! teeeheee!

May love abound in your beautiful soul, Lili! VEEL KUSJES! Anita

Such a clever idea! My mail box fills up every day with mail I don't wish to open, but a card made by LiLi would be so much fun to receive.

Btw, in Amy's latest Inspired Ideas magazine, one of my photos includes the little spool and bobbin you so generously sent me last February. :)
