9/11 Memorial

by lisn2catsJul 4, 2023
Lifted myself for the Book Lovers Challenge (July 2023)

Usually I try to look a little more cheerful in my selfies but, after reading so many names on the memorial, seeing a few people cry as they touched names, and the fact that I was cold and wet, this is the photo I ended up with. The original LO is the second one (8th grade school photo).

Products Used

This project uses products from Ranger, Tim Holtz, Creative Expressions, The Crafter's Workshop, Picket Fence Studios

Love this! The color wheel with your media is awesome, and it really matches the mood in your photo. Also, great lift!

Such a great lift of yourself with a totally different feel as the original. I love how you put the color wheel in gray tones for this theme and I love the addition of the teal stenciling. The black and white die cuts and layers, with just a touch of the teal, are so perfect and your selfie really reflects the emotional hit of being where you were. Wonderful page.

The subtle coloring on the wheel conveys your emotions here. This is thought-provoking of a somber day.

Great lift of your LO! Love that it has a different feel because of all the gray and the touches of blue.

This is beautiful. I really love the subtle pops of teal, and I think the somber selfie is perfect and appropriate for where you were. Oh, and I love your username as well. : )
