Tag Tuesday - SCHOOL DAYS

I'm trying to get back in the saddle again....my mojo is there but I'm not finding easy to sit down and DO IT!

Last Tuesday's TAG TUESDAY challenge was SCHOOL DAYS.

I got this flash card (remember those?) in an ephemera pack long long ago. The hardest part was finding it!! But it makes a great tag background for my back to school tag. Naturally, I emphasized MATH - a subject I didn't do poorly in but didn't excel at either.

Side note - Louise (Kard Krazy) and I used the same "school picture" image. It is in fact an old old Tim Holtz paper before tim was TIM. (grin)

Oh...and the sentiment "It called for some discipline." I ripped out of a magazine. Do you do that? :D

  3. I like your tag, Deb. I am always surprised by what you can use for a card. It´s a great idea to took the sentiment from a magazine. Never thought about it. And the pen in the middle-just great!

  10. I do remember those flashcards -- how cool to use it as a tag base! And that little pencil is just too perfect. Then again, so are all the components -- love the school pic, sentiment, and paper clip, too!!
