Tag Tuesday

Hi everybody! Today is tag Tuesday again, but my tag is not yet finished. Actually, I haven't started, but hope to have it done for tomorrow. I tried to rest yesterday. That means, I did do some clearing up, but no furniture moving or heavy work, just little things, like clearing out my wardrobe. Now I have 2 big bags to take to the recycling yard....
I had a nice surprise yesterday, a beautiful card from Yvonne


Thank you so much for sending such a beautiful card, and for the lovely vintage images and sentiments which came with it!

And I made an easel-card for a friend whose birthday is this week. The background has been painted with layers of acrylic paint. The picture is a bit fuzzy, but by the time I'd noticed it, it was too dark to take a new one....


Have a good day you all, take care and thanks for visiting!

    So we will have to be patient for your tag but at least you still have art to share and that is all that matters :) A lucky friend to receive this easel card and as for your friend, such a fresh fun card to receive in the mail.
    Snow here Valerie!!

    Yvonne's card is beautiful, and I love the vibrant background on your friend's birthday card :o)
