Diamond Jubilee

Thinking about the flags for last week's tag proved quite an inspiration! Choosing the Apollo missions as a theme for that tag reminded me that Mount Everest was conquered on the same day as the Queen's coronation, so I've made a double tag. One has the official portrait from the coronation, with ric rac braid, ribbon and gold flowers. The other tag has a picture of Sherpa Tensing on top of Everest. This is trimmed with the same ribbon and ric rac, plus a bit of blue ribbon too

Hope everyone has enjoyed their extra Bank Holiday, inspite of the weather!

  1. Great Tags with lovely colours Jo. I too thought of doing two tags with one showing a different theme to the coronation - but I didn't in the end.
    Maybe we will have a 'Flaming June' eventually and then listen to the cries of 'Drought!' :0)

  8. Two fab tags. What a great idea doing the two different but connected themes - I didn't know that about Mount Everest, which just goes to show Tag Tuesday is educational as well as fun!
