Loads of Fun

This scrapbook book page for the Scrap Map Challenge on CCW blog gave me a chance to use my Cosmo Cricket pad 'Get Happy' and Tim Holtz Bitty grunge stamps. 
The pictures are of my son James on his new Trampoline last springtime. James is 15 and autistic and like other children on the spectrum he loves to release energy by bouncing. He is eagerly awaiting for the spring when he can go back on his beloved trampoline :)
Here is the sketch

 and here is my page
I love the extra elements you get in with CC pads like the word borders and journal boxes. One of the requirements of the challenge is to use chipboard so instead of lettering I chose other elements. I had some frosted acrylic which was waste packaging so I used a nestie label die to cut it and then used a cuttlebug embossing folder to give it texture.

I really like this messy graphic look, it suited these photos well and this CC pad is one of my favourites.
Hope you like it too and thanks for looking.

PS Thank you for all the lovely comments left on my blog, I really appreciate them x

  3. I like the collage style of your page and I think your bouncing son could teach us all a thing or two about releasing energy!
