Another P please Bob! (for Patchwork that is)

Couldn't resist the title - hopefully some of you will remember Blockbusters TV show?
I really enjoyed this challenge, this syle of page really works for all occassions.
My niece had her son last October and I promised to make a scrapbook for her as I did for her daughter, and all the great nieces/nephews so far!
I had been shopping Lynn recently and found this a pad of 12x12 papers called Up & Away by Mindy Terasawa. They were just what I had been looking for to start this project, so here is my first page.

I cut some of the papers into the 3" squares as before and once I had inked the edges, stuck them onto a 12x12 cream sheet.

The papers included a sheet of assorted tags and an alphabet too.
I cut around the letters, inked the edges and added to the tags with 3d foam, then added the bunting with more 3d pads. I used bakers twine through the holes in the tags, looping it along the way.
Some of the papers are thermographically glittered as you can see below, just gorgeous!


 I cut a round tag and added below the photograpgh which is 13x14cm and mounted onto the reverse of one of the papers.


A selection of buttons from my button box were threaded with the same twine and added.


And of couse, the random cross stitches onto the page.
