Sepiana, I like the way your swirls background and white edge framing softly directs our focus onto the mother and child.

Took the image into Smart Photo Editor where I applied the Golden Morning Glow effect by Tony. Back in PSE I added the other items all from the Mother Love Collection by The Hungry Peg. What would we do without our mothers? To Mothers everywhere... Lillias, nicely composed layout, great choice of add-ons, and pleasant colors. A candidate for a Mother's Day greeting card.
