Rachel Jefferies Mixed Media Challenge Aug 2020 - Special Edition

This is beautiful, thank you! And Happy Two Years!!
I played with this kit and that of course led to a whole bunch of other kits.....

 

Happy 2 Year Anniversary Rachel!...Thank You! For The Wonderful Kit!...I Was Eager To Complete My Layout!...

Being Connected/Feeling Connected Is Always A Wonderful! & Important Feeling!...But Now In These Covid-19 Days!...Connectivity Seems So Much More Important!...Whether You Live In The City/Country Or Anywhere Else In Between...We All Rely On Technology To Stay In Touch With People We Care About...It Seems Somehow Now More Important Than Ever To Keep In Touch...I Too Rely On My Computer To Stay In Touch With Those I Care About!...

My Layout Speaks To This & Also On A More Global Level Too!...Do You See What I See?...Do You Not Agree?...Standing Tall & Looking In The Mirror My Lady Friend Is...In My Layout...Questioning This Very Notion?...The Letter "E" On Her Tattooed Chest...Represents..."Everyone"...Although Upside-Down...To Represent The Upside-Down World We Live in Today!...You Can See Her Reflection...A "Reflection" On Our Current Times...And On Herself...A Little Bit On The Grungy Side Of City Life...The Angst...The Struggle Perhaps...We All Struggle To Keep In Touch With Our Loved Ones...She Slowly Seems To See...That We Are All Connected In Some Way To Each Other?..Whether Through Social Media/Facebook/Instagram/UTube/Pinterest/Messenger/Any/All & Many More Platforms That I Haven't Mentioned...Not To Forget To Mention...In Our Case...The Lilypad!...What Would We Do Without Our Phones? Our Computers?...Our Tablets?...Would We Go Crazy?...Would We Miss These Things?...Of Course We Would!...We All Have Come To Rely On Technology...Whether We Realize It Or Not?...I Know I Didn't Think I Did...But Now I Know Since Covid-19 Especially...I Wouldn't Want To Think About Life Without My Computer!...I Wouldn't Be Able To Communicate With All Of My Friends!...I Wouldn't Be Able To Post My Layouts!...I Would Be Cut Off From The Scrapbooking Community!...E-Mail!...Messenger!...Oh! No!!!!!!!!!!!...And That Would Indeed Be A Very! Very! Very! Very! Sad Day [LIFE]...Indeed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...

Mixed media, in an of itself, and I have a difficult history - not so much doing it, as what it reveals. Anyway, thank you SO much for the kit! I wasn't going to play, but when I saw the page with the handwriting, it triggered in me a need to scrap some photos of my Dad's handwriting on the wall by the phone in the barn. Trust me, except for some opacity, these photos by themselves are a mixed media artist's dream! Anyway, I ended up NOT using the handwriting in the kit, adding some of my own (from my handwriting font) and tinkering a bit with the smudge tool for edges (I need work). It was a good day to tackle this topic - than you for the nudge!

 

Thank you for this beautiful kit, Rachel! I loved playing with it!
