Tags, tea and springtime blossoms.

I have been looking through my stored G45 papers  and realise that they should be used not just  stored  in a box. So I decided that I would make this robin into a tag .

You can guess that there would be

 my cup of tea close by.

So I can also call in to say hello to friends at.......

 Bleubeard and Elizabeths

where  its T stands  for Tuesday

and we are always made very welcome with a drinks related post.

I simply cut out my papers, distressed the edges with the blade of the scissors,

 adding  distress ink round the edges.

I fixed them together with the hessian flower  so the layers would   move individually.

The second layer as you can see does have some bird eggs and feathers.

This second tag was made using a picture from an old calendar. I may even recycle this tag soon and add it to a journal page as it is much larger in size
 to the ones I usually make.
 The base was coloured with distress oxides and a bit of random stamping. The flying birds is a stamped image  and the other trims came from my stash and bits box.

Both these tags I think will fit the current theme over at

Tag Tuesday

So I will be linking  over there.

I have been waiting for a couple of weeks now for these trees on the green   beside  my home,  to show their  blossoms. These are the photos I  took on Saturday.

The blossom is  lovely to see, spring has arrived,  when  we open the blinds each day it is a lovely sight, sadly it doesn't last that long and we know if there should be strong winds,

 it will be blown away.

My last share today is my Calendar pages for April
I wonder what this month will bring as each day arrives.

Thank you for calling in to see me ,

I hope you all have a good day.
