"Two For Tuesday"

Hello friends, followers, viewers and visitors.
It's Tuesday, February 25, 2020.
It's not just any ordinary Tuesday...it's "Fat Tuesday".
Fat Tuesday, also called Pancake Day, Pancake Tuesday, Shrove Tuesday and Mardi Gras (which is French for "Fat Tuesday"), is the last day of feasting before Lent begins on Ash Wednesday.
While there are carnival festivals in many countries on Fat Tuesday, in the English-speaking world the term is particularly associated with the "Mardi Gras" carnival celebrations in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA. Recently the term "Mardi Gras" has evolved to refer to the whole period of festivities, not just the single day of Mardi Gras/Fat Tuesday.

Today I'm sharing the card that was made yesterday and the one I made this morning:
 "FAITHFUL"
cardstock: Neenah white; Recollections black; K&Company Mat yellow

Cardstock: Neenah white; Recollections black

Thanks for coming to view with me today.
Celebrate Fat Tuesday before you begin with Ash Wednesday on tomorrow.

Sending you a hug and love,
Lois
