This collage is steampunk-light, but I really enjoyed making it...I especially enjoyed burning the paper all around the edges...mwah.
I bought the original pic of this little victorian boy from an antique store, I just love him.
It cracks me up how stately and mature he looks in this pose, when he was probably all of seven years old. But he's extra cute with his glittered santa hat and boots.
The trees, hat, swirls and stars are Tim Holtz Grungeboard, inked with Pan Pastels.
