More George...

I was playing with some scraps recently and made this LO of George.
I had seen a layout by Cindy Tobey and this is based roughly on it.
The base is dotted swiss bazzill from Cardinal Colours and the papers are The Girls Paperie Collection from Papermaze.


The scallops down the side are punched with an SU scalloped punch, cut in half and set along the edge.
Below is a close up of the flowers which were punched from different sizes of the retro daisy punch and the others made from a circle using the spiral technique. The leaves were punched with a Martha Stewart punch as were the butterflies which I punched twice and layered.


The bunting was also scalloped punched shapes which I folded over and "strung" with embroidery thread.
The letters are some rub-ons which I have had for ages.


Watch this space for the rest of these papers, coming soon :)
Shhhhh, dont say I told you lol!

Thanks for taking a peek.
