Pieces of Me

This layout was inspired by Marci's BOM (Book of Me) assignment at The School of Scrap. This was my first layout in which I actually cut up a photo. I have doodled on a photo before but never cut one up...until now. It was quite liberating and I felt so creative. The swirls on the page were created using embossing powder and adhesive glue. For more information on this technique, go to my Shop class. For the title I used Heidi Swapp chipboard "She" letters that I colored with Stampin Up markers. The new Storybook paper line from Cosmo Cricket was just too awesome to not use it in this "Pieces of Me" layout.

9-11.....Remember Michael Selves

To Michael Selves' family.....
It is now five years later and I still remember 9-11 and the impact it had on me. I can't imagine the impact 9-11 had on your family. I hope that this small memorial on this day, 9-11, is a testimony to his life and those he left behind.

Michael Selves worked at the Pentagon and was a resident of Fairfax, Virginia.

Michael....You are remembered. Rest in peace!!!!
