RAF Officer...

This is a 6 x 6" scrapbook layout for another Trimcraft sketch challenge. The photo is my dad (before he was promoted to Group Captain and got 'scrambled egg' on the peak of his hat). It was taken at Buckingham Palace, after the investiture where the Queen awarded his OBE.

Not sure he would have approved of this layout and using uniform buttons, but he's not around any more to argue with me! ;o) RIP, dad.


Paper: Computer-generated using a shape in Word and the formatting menu to fill it in.
Cardstock: Leaf-embossed gold card
Rub-ons: Making Memories 'Heidi' alphabet
Buttons: Old RAF uniform brass buttons
Other: Gold peel-off lines

Hi Heather, my brother was a RAF man & I'm sure that your Dad would be priviledged to see how you have honoured him here. You must be very proud of him....
