Hi everybody!
Hope you are all having a good week.
Our theme this week is
school days. As someone who spent many years at school, as a student and
later as a teacher, I still have a soft spot for school themes,
although I am happy that I don't have to teach any more.
This tryptich tag is one I made some time back, but as it fits the theme so well, I decided to post it again.
The second tag has been made from a piece
of my precious Graphics 45 paper, which is very difficult to cut into! I
mounted it onto some black card from an old calendar. I replaced the
picture the girl is holding with a little blackboard, after fussy
cutting round her litte fingers so it looks like she is holding it. I
added the second blackboard paper-clip instead of a band or ribbon. The
images on the tag remind me of my own schooldays.
Take care, and thanks a lot for coming by!
Valerie
Love both of your tags! Hugs, Sarah

Great tags - the tri fold is just fantastic - yearning for the good old days?
ReplyDeleteThat is a great tri fold tags, so many details. I tried to make my tag this week with G45 paper, but every image I liked overlapped another, so I couldn't get a solid one. You did really well with that.
