Poverty


June over at Dezinaworld 
Cheeky Challenges has added a list for her weekly challenge themes,
 this week its--Rags, poverty and homeless.
Oh dear I thought,  what a deep and moving theme.
Not just a topic from past times but a very current issue in our world and lives today.
So this is again a digital page, much easier for me to blend and overlay images, using my own,
some from Mischief circus kits and the one June supplied..
The quote is by Frank Mc Court and I believe its from Angela's Ashes.
June  has also added an image to use if we  wanted to, so it is incorporated into my background.

Thank you for stopping by to see me today,
 I always appreciate the comments you leave for me

  1. Beautifully done. It certainly meets the demands of the prompt. I am trying so hard to learn how to do this. Pippa has been encouraging me as well as Susie Mac, but it is really hard. I just love your work.

  2. Beautiful use of June's sample piece as your background, and I love your wee sweet lassie with her chin in hand. She seems to be deep in thought. Lovely work.
