I have more or less finished my May calendar; I will add some more when I get round to it. I painted the background with gesso mixed with some pink and green-grey colours - leftovers from another job - and added tags for the days, and some roses. *Tag* is a pun, as the word for *day* in German is *Tag*. I am linking to the Kathryn Wheel.
Okay, that's all for today, I'm off to put my feet up....Take care, have a good day and thanks for coming by!
