Africa

When I saw this week's theme, I rummaged around  in my paper box for a piece of khadi paper which  I dyed with the South African  rooibos tea ( red bush tea ). I tore up a couple of bits to fit onto the tag, and drew an Adinkra symbol  of  harmony, love and faithfulness . I added  the  lovely story which goes with the symbol. The tea bag tag didn't have anything on it,so I stamped it with a pattern which looks a little African?  Simple but at least, I am not running so late this week.
