Thank you Ben, it was the linux-complier-gcc package.

Let's assume you're building amd64 (but the same would be true of any kernel 
flavour):

linux-image-amd64 does not exist in any release as version 3.12. And in 
wheezy-backports, this package depends on linux-image-3.14-0.bpo.2-amd64. I 
don't know which of the things you've mixed in from backports and unstable will 
cause the installation of the wheezy-backports or unstable versions of this 
metapackage, but apparently there is some dependency path back to one of these, 
and that's how you end up with a 3.14 kernel in your image.

To avoid installing the linux-image-{flavour} metapackage, which never depends 
on the correct kernel for your use case, specify lb config --linux-packages 
linux-image-3.12-0.bpo.1 (or if you need headers too, lb config 
--linux-packages "linux-image-3.12-0.bpo.1 linux-headers-3.12-0.bpo.1").
