The first one I actually started at my AFA Meet in Melbourne last week, and finished today whilst the second one is playing along with a couple of bird themed challenges.
Gelli Print Background with Stamping & Collage
There is something about this image, that portraits the fragility and innocence of a child and she looks rather vulnerable and that she could do with a hug.
Fragile is a bit how I've been feeling the past few days since returning from Melbourne. I have not been well and we have been having a few trying moments with 'A'. Trying to understand why he behaves like he does at times is hard and it is often the internal conflict within myself that I find the most difficult as its hard to know when to respond, rather than react as he struggles to not let us get too close.
I am entering the above ATC into the following challenges
The Lollipop Ladies - #71 Musk and Seeing Spots
Crazy Amigo Challenge - Rounds Circles and Dots
Gesso and Watercolor Background with Collage
The background for this I had made some time ago, I often make ATC sized background and keep them on hand for when the need arises, I also participate in a lot of background swaps over at AFA. Often I find a theme or one comes to mind, so after deciding on an image/design I then go looking for the background. I love how the red of the birds brings out the hint of red in this background and blue was the perfect choice to represent the sky. The birds sitting on the sign post are from a Collage Sheet from Done4YouPages on Etsy and the quotation I have been hoarding in my filing cabinet for a couple of years.
I am entering the above ATC into the following challenges

Great bird ATC, Dani. Thank you for joining our challenge this week!
Terrific ATC's and I see a fragile little girl too. We are all fragile and sometimes the best thing to do is to do nothing except to be there!
These are both beautiful! Lovely pastel colors and images!
Danie Fragility is OK - recognising it is even better. Knowing that time and effort is so important in every relationship is priceless.
You are all growing!
