Brief: Create an album cover with a handmade element
I’ll Cry If I Want To was recorded by Lesley Gore when she was just 17 years old. Her song It’s My Party is about misery during a happy occasion (her boyfriend left with another girl at her party). I created a scene using a cake surrounded by things you’d find in a teenager’s bedroom to represent the essence of the song, heartbroken as an adolescent.
