Pinky's theme on Tag Tuesday is ' Women/ Mothers day/ Feminine' and I have made a fabric tag with a photograph printed onto fabric. The base is on Muslin with a surround of lace, scrim and beads. I added a fabric butterfly for a splash of colour.

Thursday journal page with Neet
'You look like I need a drink' are the words this week.
The mum on the left has had enough, her three children have scribbled all over the green wall with a pot of dark green paint. Her friend and cat look like they are quite relaxed about it, it's obviously not her wall. She is fairly sympathetic as she doesn't have any children, but thinks she needs a drink.
I am entering this in Art Journal Journey where Eileen's (The artful crafters) theme is green https://art-journal-journey.blogspot.com/2020/03/green.html
I am away from Wednesday to Saturday so this a scheduled post. Wednesday to Thursday, I am on my textile course doing last minute things for the exhibition in May. Wednesday night I am off to Birmingham for Clannad's farewell concert, after 50 years in the music industry. One of my favourite groups. We are all going, my two daughter and Peter, so I will be driving to Newport in the morning and back at lunch time, Peter can drive to Birmingham as I will then be back to Newport the next day,
Friday I am on another course. Saturday I am going to do absolutely nothing (fat chance)

Tag Tuesday -- Paris
My last tag for Sandie's theme of Paris on Tag Tuesday. This time a more romantic one with lace and flowers
I have spent the last two days in the garden, and can hardly believe we haven't had any rain for two whole days. Spoke too soon, we had rain overnight. We are on clay here and it's really hard work digging. Perhaps I should be planting water plants and not garden ones.

Thursday Journal with Neet
This week the words are" Don't talk to me after my coffee either"
The background is Distress inks and the use of a few stencils and stamping. The colours are a lot brighter than this in real life. The lady on the left and her daughter are wondering what on earth they said to upset their friend, even Freddie the dog looks a bit surprised. The lady on the right with her blue pinafore dress (umbrella skirt idea pinched from Neet) just grabs her coffee and leaves them wondering.
I am so near the end of my large journal it is very difficult to photograph them, so excuse the uneven edges. The light is also very poor today.

Tag Tuesday -- Paris
Another tag for Sandie's theme of Paris on Tag Tuesday.
I used the same paper as the last one and a few different images, some charms and flowers.
I have just come in from two hours in the garden, planting some young plants out out from last years sowings. They can take their chance with the frost or drowning.
I am frozen, so hiding in my studio for a while before dinner calls.

Tag Tuesday -- Paris
Paris is the theme chosen by Sandie for the next two weeks on Tag Tuesday, a great theme
For this tag I covered the background in a printed paper, and added some of my stamped Paris images. I added some lace, a clock and flowers to finish off.
