I adore this image, as a great memory of the reading times with my daughter when little.
She is turning 20 years old tomorrow already,
seems it was yesterday she was in my arms.
Happy Birthday Melissa!

The focal image was treated with a filter effect cutout.
I also used the amazing perfect word art from Anna for this LO using a style that is adjusted withing the gradient overlay of the style that applied to it,
to the colors that have combined well with the overall feeling of the LO.
