Twelve Tags 0f 2012 June 'Our Jack'


As soon as I saw Tim's June tag for his Twelve Tags of Twenty Twelve Challenge, I new exactly which photo I wanted to use. This is one of my favourite pictures of my son when he was a little a boy he looks so cute even though he's holding his 'cowboy' toy guns, (not very PC these days). It was taken in front of my husbands beloved old Mark 2 Jaguar when Jack was possibly 3 or 4 years old, oh how I wish I'd put dates on all those old pics, anyway he's now 31 ! I just don't know where the time's gone. To think that a photo of my son is now a piece 'vintage ephemera' makes me feel so old.  As usual the tag was a lot of fun to make with the usual substitutions for the Ideaology bits I don't ...yet... have. You've got to love all those lovely Tim bits and bobs, pity my bank account doesn't stretch as far as I would like. I'm pleased with my film strip which I made by stamping onto a piece of acetate, I'll use that technique again and maybe stamp some small images in the spaces. The little clock charm was carefully tied onto a beautifully packaged ATC I received from the lovely May, thank you it's just the job x 


P.S My husbands still got the old Jag and Jack is still pretty cute x

  1. A great tag - and a pretty cute photo. I had to improvise a lot on this one too, did the same stamp on acetate for the film strip - works well.

  2. I like the tag you have done a wonderful job, isn't it amazing that he still has the Jag, wow. As for Jack he is a little cutie, probably a big cutie now. LOL

    Happy crafting this week
