Domestic Violence Awareness..
Hi Peeps!!
Hope all is well!!
Couple of days ago, came across of an interesting challenge - Challenge # 12 - Domestic Violence Awareness - Purple Ribbon hosted by Brown Sugar Challenge Blog.
Domestic violence, if not all, most of us would have faced or would have seen our loved ones/friends suffering from the same.
Not many of us know, that October is not only famous for Breast Cancer Awareness but also to another great cause i.e., Domestic Violence Awareness, identified by the purple ribbon.
Domestic violence can be of any form, verbal, emotional and physical. There are varied reasons anticipated which can trigger such uneasiness.. in a family or in a relationship. Few of the common causes are - Jealousy, stress, need for dominance or control and other Psychological factors.
Best sought method in overcoming the abuse to a certain extent is to seek help, counseling and guidance. And most importantly is to Break the cycle. Because It all starts with us. Reach out for a hand that is always there.

So here's my completely "handmade" card that i have created and would be linking to the challenge mentioned above.
As you can see, I have made a split card. Wherein I have added the same girl's image twice, but the image is differently coloured.(I hope the image is coloured well :-( !! )
Left Side of the Card - Image 1 :
Depicts an abused girl, who is hurt. I have also added the text- "ABUSED" on her shirt to further explain the girl's state. In the background, you will see the ghostly figure that depicts the abuser who has abused the girl emotionally (broken heart) and physically (wounds). I have also added the hand made Tagline -> SILENCE IS VIOLENCE.
Right Side of the Card - Image 2 :
Depicts the same girl who has now fought against abuse.I have also added the text- "SURVIVOR" on her shirt to further explain that the girl has put efforts against abuse and has arised as a survivor. I have added the brighter background(with sun and clouds) to show that life is now happier. I have also added the Purple Ribbon and added the Tagline ->STOP DOMESTIC VIOLENCE.
I hope the Card is found to be apt for the Challenge, it is a small effort from my end to spread Domestic Violence Awareness.
