I started making George's garden with a biscuit box and I covered the sides in lovely Indigo Blu papers. Green felt made the grass , I just scratched it up a bit to make it more fluffy.
Well no garden is complete without flowers, so I die cut a few. I then used water colours to add some colour to them and added a pearl dot in the middle.
I made the stems and leaves with some green wire.
Now George needed a basket to carry the flowers in, so I plaited some paper together to make a basket.
I put some lovely yellow ribbon with tiny pom poms on around the top of the sides.
George was getting impatient so I quickly coloured him with some watercolours and placed him on top of the grass. I then added lots of the flowers around him, so he was very happy and content.
This is going to be a gift box so I covered the bottom with some more Indigo Blu papers and cut a little door into the bottom. I think some chocolates or a gift card etc would fit inside ok.
I used an array of different medias to create this, I hope you like it.
Thank you for visiting George today, he loved seeing you.
