Living in a house full of boys, I am no stranger to all the themes that boys seem to love; superheroes, dinosaurs, cars and all types of trucks, fire engines, good guys and bad guys, and let's not forget the pirates. Some of my boys' first sounds and words were actually versions of pirate grunts and "aye matey"s. I think it's part of their genetic makeup or something. In any event, It's sometimes hard to keep a page masculine without getting too thematic.
Here I've used textures and mediums that give a rough "boy" feel. Inked pebbles, rollerstamp text, Distress Ink splats, and a few doodled X's.
Something about the colour and texture of kraft paper just seems masculine too, even when die cut into doilies.
I powered through this layout with my go to glue; Helmar Professional Acid Free Glue. It worked on the lightweight bingo sheet without bleeding or warping, held the intricate cuts of my doilies with little fuss, and was perfect for the chipboard and paper layers. You know you trust a glue when you readily apply it to the back of your photos without thinking.
