For my second layout today I have done a boy layout featuring my cute little
grandson Henry. I am really enjoying do some boy layouts & I hope you like it too.

This Boy title
Puzzle Pieces
Mini Puzzle Pieces
Chain Lengths
Steampunk Gears-Small
Steampunk Gears-Medium
I did a mixed media background & then proceeded to work on all the chippie pieces.
First up I coated the "Title", "Stars" & "Mini Puzzle Pieces"with a coat of
gesso followed by a couple of coats of Silks paint in "Pretty Peridot".
I then stamped over the "Mini Puzzle Pieces" for some added interest.
Next the "Chain Lengths" & the small & medium "Gears" were simply
given a coat of metallic "Gunmetal" paint.
When dry I brushed the gears over with a little Lindy's "Grab A Guy Gold"
spray to give them a rusty metal look.
Now the best thing on this layout, (apart from my gorgeous grandson),
are the large "Puzzle Pieces". I LOVE how they look.
I firstly painted them in the same Gunmetal metallic
paint then I stamped them with an alphabet stamp & heat embossed them with some
Lindy's "Midnight Pewter" embossing powder. Really pleased with these.
Lots of mixed media on my background & also lots of stamping too.
Hey presto, all finished.
I hope I have inspired you in some small way.
If you like my layout I would love you to leave me a comment.
Let me know what you think of those cute puzzle pieces.
I always love to read your feedback.
Until next time.
