Scrap the boys - by the boy...

Hi everyone!!

New month and new challenges!! Yaaay

I was looking at all my favourite sites checking out the challenges and mentioned to Mr Big that this month on Scrap the boys - the theme was Trick or Treat - so I chose treat and that was to scrap about your boys favourite thing.

My Mr Big (who is 8) has a very obsessive personality - when he finds something to love - he REALLY loves it - well for a couple of months until something else comes along....

It started when he was little with Dinosaurs - very educational so I was happy to encourage this - then we branched out to animals in general - we have EVERY species of plastic animal you can imagine.... then as he got older it has gone from gel pens, erasers, stamps, footy cards, Indiana Jones, which was cool where he dressed like him daily and wanted to have his hair cut the same and now since receiving some in a lolly bag at a party - its Pokemon.
Now I soooo don't get Pokemon cards - Mr Big will come and tell me all about the powers and strengths of each character and get VERY excited about trades he makes at school with his mates for the strongest cards - but they are sooo expensive - and they are just paper... its not like its a new sheet of co-ordinating chip stickers or journal cards with cute features or even a crisp new shipping tag...... OHHHH!! I get it now.....

So yesterday - Mr big ripped out the scrapping supplies and came up with this LO to submit to STB - complete with a title here is a close up of the journalling


and the final product....

He is pretty chuffed about this LO - and he is only 8 so he thinks its awesome - I like all the ripping and the layering.. too cute
OK - off to link it with STB for a chance to win the prize.... on his request!!
Please leave Mr Big a comment Thanks girls
