Camping


As soon as I saw the picture of this old horse drawn caravan I thought of The Famous Five books by Enid Blyton, so I just had to use it.

 The pictures in the books I still have are in black & white but I decided to add some accents of colour to my Tag in the form of some bunting, a fire under the cooking pot, a couple of flowers and some colour on the wagons wheels and around the canopy. The backing card is some grass printed card and the loop is some thin green ribbon. I took the picture with the tag on a picnic rug surrounded by some of my Famous Five books.

I'm looking forward to seeing all the fabulous tags everyone else comes up with this week
