Just For You Tag TYIC5 JUGS256

I made a tag last night for the latest Tag You're It! Challenge while also incorporating the "anything but an A2 card" challenge over at Just Us Girls.  But I hemmed and hawed over it because I wasn't crazy about the flowers.  So I didn't post it.  Then I went to bed and thought maybe I'd have a better idea in the morning.  Well, I didn't (which inspired me to do a little crafty shopping for some supplies that I was obviously lacking!) but decided  to go ahead and post it anyway.



One other thing I learned while photographing this tag is that I need a smaller frog to prop up small projects like this.  This tag looks quite lost on that giant frog!  I got this one in the spring at the antique show in Brimfield Massachusetts and it just so happens that the show starts up again on Tuesday so I just may have to take a little road trip next weekend!

Well that's it for me.  I'm off to the vegetable garden to clean up.  Despite my nifty fence, a woodchuck managed to get in there and eat EVERYTHING.  Well, everything except for a couple of banana peppers.  Next year I'm going to have to call some pest control company to come and take care of that giant pest because I'm not sharing my veggies with him again!

Thanks for stopping by!
