The 2 mini canvases - in twinchy size - have been painted with remnants of blue, green, white and gold acrylics. I added a large white daisy to each one, and then fixed them one above the other onto a white ribbon. I thought they would make a nice present for one of the nurses or therapists here.
The theme over at *Tag Tuesday* this week is vintage. I have made 2 tags, both with images Donna sent to me at Christmas. The first image has been fussy cut, partly coloured with water-colour pencils, and then placed onto a piece of vintage paper and a scrap of lace, all of which has been mounted on a tag cut from a piece of Anna Griffin card-stock. The second image has also been cut out. The tag is made of cardboard, covered with some vintage book paper painted with gesso, and embellished with a ribbon and another scrap of vintage lace.
Have a great day you all, take care, and thanks for visiting!

Love your mini canvases and how kind of you to think of your nurses. I'm sure they will love what you've made for them. Hope you are feeling better. You sound pretty good. Take care and have a great rest of the week.
Those canvases are adorable - they look quick to make but what a lovely gift they'll be! Thanks for the visits and encouraging words!

Valerie, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the beautiful canvasses you made!.. I wanted to join in on the tags for this week, just to play along, but I'm waiting for materials/supplies to come in the mail, and am starting to get a little nervous as to WHERE they are! (sigh) I'm trying my best to be patient! (0; Love how pretty your tags are! The bow and lace on the second one are so SWEET! ~tina

Gogeous tags my dear!
Hi Val,
when I watch your journal project I sometimes think about the main thing/idea of your journal. Recently I made a "Smashbook" for my mother to take with her on holiday and while working on that book I thought, that this "Smashbook" should be used as a travel journal - and then thought of your journal. As my mother does not scrap or anything like that she will not do such individual and different things like you (I hope she will use it any way).
Hugs

Marie
