Read all about it, I know it's a long post but it's worth the read.

Lisa created this event in 2007. The original idea behind this giveaway event was to bring bloggers together from around the world who may never ordinarily meet. It closes the gap of the blog community and enables us to interact, discover new and wonderful people, and in the process possibly win a prize or many prizes along the way. 2007 had roughly 85-90 participants and many connections were made because of it......friendships that are still going strong.

There was a strong showing the first year for sure, and then in 2008 had just about tripled that number. In 2009 there were 911 participants and 28 countries were represented in the 2009 event as well.
This is more than wanting to win something.......that is only the means.......in the end it's about finding kindred spirits. Someone who may be fairly new to blogging, not sure how to navigate, find others and have others find them....Some are long time bloggers and in some cases well known in the blogging community. Whatever the case it brings all of them together.

This is an INTERNATIONAL event that has and had participants from the US, Canada, France, Sweden, Germany, Finland, Malaysia, Brazil, The Netherlands, Australia, New Zealand, Scotland, Ireland, England,Wales, Slovenia and more. It transcends geographical location, socio economics, political affiliation, religious beliefs......it's a coming together like the giant community we are on this planet. If only it took a simple giveaway to create PEACE everywhere, in the mean time here we give from our hearts. We are not solving the worlds problems nor are we curing anything nor are we changing the world. We are merely generating a closer community between humans through blogging.

Thank you Lisa for another great event for the chance to meet new people and gain new friends.

On to what Going Green Crafters & Artists is giving away!
There are going to be 3 drawings with 3 prizes. The drawing will be on February 16th.
I have been around hundreds of blogs already on my magic carpet ride and
I haven't seen a lot of things for children.   

Here's some great eco-friendly craft supplies for kids!

Each prize will have a Green Art watercolor set.  It has VOC free paints, reclaimed wood paintbrush, and recyled tray and packaging.  The colored pencils are also from Green Art and they are recycled wood and recylced packaging.  Lastly there will be a case to hold everything in made by Terracycle.  It's a division of Frito Lay that recycles bags into pencil bags.
