After my last little experiment with decoupage,
I found myself thinking...
what's next?
Well...
a two foot tall paper-mâché letter,
'G', to be exact.
I decided with the amount of cutting involved I needed to invest in one of those 'self-healing' mats, and a better craft knife. I'm so glad I did, as I really wanted all of the cuts to be exact and this made the task much easier. The paper is a mixture of CK prints.
Lots of Mod Podge later, she's looking pretty sweet.
I'm not going to mislead you, this was a time intensive project.
But, I think the results were worth it.
Thank you for all of your 'get well' wishes.
You're all so sweet and I'm feeling much better.
Happy Monday, my friends.
I'm joining the fun at Life Made Lovely and Centsational Girl.

LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh-em-gee! How darling is that letter G?
I'm with Sandy! Paper? Fabric? I sure love this idea. I have one of those giant letters too for our last name. I don't like how it turned out, but you sure have inspired me to redo it. Thanks!
Your "G" is great!
So cute. I am a fan of your style. This G is going to be converted into an A at my place this summer, looks like a project I'll be trying out :). Love the colors. Thanks for sharing! Happy to have stumbled upon Birdie Blue.
You had me at Cath Kidston!!!!
