Pomp and pageantry

Had a play with some of my london stamps last night, seems everyone is going all patriotic this year for the Diamond Jubilee and the Olympics so thought I had better get some mileage out of my stamps while they are so "in" ! Collage stamped the background with a selection of Artistic Outpost and Indigo Blu stamps, then added the couple and the Lion from Indigo Blu's Pomp and Pageantry set.hand cut the triangles for the bunting which was a bit fiddly but I like the finished effect: putting on three  challenges
