Jeremy Rocks

There are so many things for girls that sometimes I feel like my poor son is scrapbook-neglected.  So to show him that I love him and think he "Rocks", I made a 20"x24" canvas for his room.
I used chipboard letters, tags, transparencies, and lots of texture for this piece.  To add dimension and "grunge" it up "guy-style", I crumpled, rippedn and tore the paper and inked it for a distressed look.  I also used textured cardboard for backgrounds for pics and large paperclips to secure pics to the canvas.  Ribbon can be manly as long as you don't tie it in bows!
When I presented it to him, I wasn't sure what his reaction would be, but he proudly hangs it in his room!
