My Boy... again!

Yep... he's the subject of my latest page again!  Why is it the youngest little fella features so much?  Probably because he and I spend the most amount of time together right now and I therefore have more opportunities to snap away ... and he never shies away from the camera either!  lol   Seriously, I don't know when I last took a photo of Maddi... might have to chase her with the camera at our club soccer carnival on the weekend.  :)

Anyway, this layout has been rattling around in my head for a while now, just screaming for some attention.. so i finally had to give it wings.. and what better medium than The Colour Room's next palette, number 71!  I think just about every DT member gave this palette a go this week, so you really are in for a treat if you head over for a look.

My first attempt at something steampunk-ish too.  What do you think?  :))

I really wanted this layout reflect the fact that, no matter how much femininity I try to smother this little guy with, he just smashes through and pushes it aside!!  He really is All Boy!  Guns, noise, mess, smashing into things... like a bull in a china shop  lol.  I really enjoyed doing this page, especially the cogs and button and metals bits and pieces.  I used tonnes of glimmer mist and gesso.... layer after layer in fact.  The chippy cogs are Scrapfx and there is even some Dusty Attic chippy chickenwire under there too.

And here is the palette that got almost the entire TCR DT all inspired:

Hopefully it will get you all inspired too!  :)  Look forward to seeing you over there.

Thanks for popping in and I'll see you soon with my next ScrapBoxx Challenge.  Have a fabulous weekend!
