TAG ALONG CHALLENGE BLOG #96: BOYS

Audrey is the host this week at the Tag Along Challenge Blog.  Audrey is looking for "boy-themed" tags, so I immediately thought of my favorite boy image from Stampotique, "Twinkie!"  

I used some patterned paper from my stash for the tag background, cutting a snippet from it to give my image a place on which to stand so that he did not appear to be floating.  

Now, I suppose to many my sentiment needs no explanation, but, since my husband never heard of this expression (surprisingly), I will share Wikipedia's explanation:  "Pull my finger is a joke or prank regarding flatulence in which a mark is asked to pull the finger of the joker, who simultaneously expresses gas...."  Farting seems to be a pretty common pastime for young boys, so here's my contribution to this theme!


I appreciate your visit today!  Please come by and join in on the "boy" fun at the Tag Along Challenge Blog this week.

  1. What a fabulous boy tag, Kay, so appropriate LOL. I had heard the expression but never noticed the accompanying fart (can people express gas at will?!) so didn't understand. Never thought to google it!

  5. LOVE THIS, Kay!! Hilarious!! I think I may have laughed at (or would it be with?) your hubbie not knowing "pull my finger". Growing up with my Dad and 3 older brothers, this was a life lesson learned early on--To Not Pull The Finger!! :) :) XOXO-Shari

  8. Again a fun tag! And I had to look twice to see that it is monochrome; the images are so playfully placed! Hugs, Gerrina

  9. This makes me laugh. I'm the only girl among 5 brothers and this was one of their favorite jokes, to this day and they between 45 and 55.
