THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED. PLEASE KEEP CHECKING BACK FOR MORE GIVEAWAYS!
Annie made a goal last year to create at least one piece of art each month. Not too easy when you're the mother of two young kiddos, but she's come up with some amazing stuff, and sells prints in her Etsy shop, The Wild Poppy.
This fabulous 11x14 ABC print can be yours for just a comment! Let your eyes pore over it for a minute, it's like a quiet book on the wall. My kids would love this. I can only imagine the amount of work (paper cutting!) this took to create!
Annie originally created it for her daughter, Hazel's bedroom. The original piece is made from paper scraps and clippings. The winner will receive a signed reproduction print!
Love this Flower Collage print, too. It would be a great gift all framed up.
The Owl Family Collage is Annie's latest piece. It just sings of family harmony and togetherness. Might need more than one of these around the house. :)
To enter the giveaway, answer the following question in a comment:What was the last thing you created?
Winner will be randomly selected Tuesday evening.

I created a business card for my friend Rebecca. The card advertises Rebecca as giving "home-grown violin lessons" and the card itself is wood grain with green and cream writing, an organic dream!
I just wrote a segment on my story blog a couple of days ago, and was up till midnight last night doing some freelance work. Her artwork is fantastic!
Oh, adorable!! I just made two very Lorena Siminovich inspired wood collages for my daughter's newly redecorated bedroom!!
Dinner. No, really, I had to make up the recipe.
Last interesting thing, though, was a game for my kids to play.
I think the last thing I created was a decorative pillow for our couch.
Does creating a child count? I feel like it has been so long since I have been creative. Honestly the last thing I created was some hand made cloth diapers. Not too fun but very useful around here!
I would love that print for my latest "creations" room.
Matching skirts for my girls (ages 1 1/2 and 2 1/2) using Hushabye fabric by Tula Pink for Moda. So cute!
I created a chocolate cake and mud pie for my husband's birthday!

I am currently "creating" space for my third child in my home! I'm also sewing in preparation for her birth!
i had a lot of fun organizing and running crafts for a Family Camp in Manitoba last week. So... the last thing i "created" was a cute butterfly made out of a clothespin and a coffee filter!!! Not exactly what you'd call "cosmopolitan"...but delightful non-the-less!!!
I made silhouetttes of my children's heads. It was the first time in a long time I created something. Love the alphabet print. Very special.
beautiful print! i last created a back-to-school kit for my nieces starting their first day of high school and middle school. locker decor, lip smackers, and other sweet goodies that every girl needs to get through the first week of jitters. what a great giveaway!
So beautiful! I created a banner for my soon-to-open Etsy shop... a long realized dream. So wonderful to be inspired by other artists.
The last thing I created was an apron for a friend.
Wow, I LOVE all this artwork, what a great giveaway. Last thing I created was a double hourglass quilt! :)
It might be a little hokey, but I am very proud of a little clothespin bag I made out of a vintage baby dress. I'll be posting pics on the ol' blog soon.
Love that print!
darling Leslie! Thanks for sharing. I created some really really yummy chocolate chip cookies the other day...I am Rachel's sis...we are not terribly creative! That's why we SOOO appreciate the amazing creativity in others!
Wow! That is amazing and inspiring!!! The last thing that I created was a wedding card for my aunt!

Since my little girl just hit her 1 month birthday, I'd have to say the last thing I created was her. I did a pretty good job if you ask me :)
That print is just amazing! Thanks for sharing :)
The last thing I created was a scrapbook album about all the places we loved to go when we lived in Philadelphia. (we're now on the other coast, so it definitely needed documenting!)

i just posted about the birthday announcements i made with my daughter. such a fun project to do together.
A tie dye shirt for both my kids. Great fun.
Right now, I'm into quilting. The last thing was a "shaggy" quilt. Fun.
I also adore Annie - she does have some serious style. Last thing I created...a glittery design of Colin's name for his kindergarten class wall.
A display frame that had to be painted and fabric put in the middle. It was fun to work on a project again.

It's been a little while for me, as I've had my hands full these days... but, the last thing I created was a collage for my son's nursery commemorating his 4-month stay in the NICU.
The last thing I created was a "scene" as I dropped my son off at preschool just now : ) Really though, I made my dad a fun bday card this month. I love the colors in this work-lovely,thanks!!
Well I guess it would be the logo design I just finished last night. But if you are thinking more crafty that would be my sons room that I painted and designed as a train room. :) I need to do my baby girls room next.

I created a chalkboard for my kitchen - to keep my family organized. $1 frame from Goodwill, painted a light, chalky grey and a can of chalkboard paint later, a beautiful chalkboard was born!

Let's see... I just made a time machine out of a cardboard box for a fun church singing activity this Sunday. I'm not quite done. And believe it or not, it was my first experience ever with spray paint!
I believe the last thing I might have created was a fun time for Dave, Annie, and her two amazing kids. I love Annie with her incredible talent,which simply oozes from her every pore! I bet the sampler looks awesome in Hazel's room. What a wonderful person to feature in this Blog post!

What an adorable print! I remember cutting out paper when I was little to put things together like that. (It was mostly pics of animals etc). The last thing I made was fabric alphabet letters for the fridge (a VERY long time ago), but just bought some cute chairs that I'm going to refurbish.

Have a lovely day!

Oh! I love a collage. The last thing I created myself was a little quilted case to protect my iPod Touch in my school bag. Without much of a plan before hand, the case that sprung up out of the fabric was so cute it surprised me.

OH my I have been looking for something like this for our playroom!!! Last thing I created was a pillow for my daughter's room ..... hope I win!!
I made a ladybug swing top for my little girl to wear for her first birthday party. I created the pattern for the simple top and an appliqued ladybug-shaped pocket and used a clearance red-with-black-dots napkin from World Market for the yoke and pocket, and black-and-white gingham for the "skirt". It was my first time to do "real" applique! I thought it turned out pretty well. I was going to make bloomers, too, but I was short on time and couldn't resist black boot-cut knit pants at Target for $4!
GORGEOUS! My son would flip over the alphabet collage.

I'm still creating a wreath made of pipe cleaners & felt. (My aunt made one years ago that I've always loved to see in her house, so she's helping me make this one.) It's quite time-consuming, but I'm exited to have done it!
i just finished an ABC quiet book, made some sewing error that i will have to fix today but i love it. what a lovely addition to any child's room, it's beautiful!
