From the left hand side and up closer to see some of the detail ...
I stamped a wooden tag and coloured it with ink pads. Each of the bunting pieces has been inked and then glitter glued around the edge using Platinum (one of my favourite glitter glues).
The centre bunting pieces spelling her name ....
I love the chipboard letters from Craftwork Cards, I covered some with papers and inked others. Two of the letters were embossed too to give added texture. Lots of ribbons, flowers, charms and daisies - all my favourite things.
The last 2 pieces of bunting on the right hand side ...
I am so pleased with how it turned out. I loves using up lots of bits and pieces I have collected over the years and some of the bits are years old. Like the lime green acrylic letters above that spell out Grace. I stamped on some Kraft tickets and added them with tied ribbon at the top of each ticket. I also hung a bead off one of the letters and a heart charm from another.
The bunting is linked together with ribbon and I have sewn a daisy between each piece adding a button to the centres.
If you would like to have a go at making some bunting pop over to Craftwork Cards website they have kits of Bunting - 20 pieces in a pack for just £3.95. I have used Pretty Little Prints papers with some Kraft cardstock and tickets and added Pretty Little Prints Candi in Sweet Meadow and Cottage Garden.
I hope Grace likes it!

Just so pretty Julie love the bunting colors. And baby Grace is beautiful xx
Your bunting is beautiful and I'm sure Grace will treasure it for years to come - though she's a little young to appreciate it at the moment (but it will look fab in her nursery). xx
