Makes me think of those old Victorian valentine cards. I feel as if there is some very poetic verse on the other side. ;~)

Love the rich browns, are those seeds? Whatever they are it's a wonderful abstract and the overlays are perfect!

I actually like how the blending modes you chose removed the color from Joyah (and that is one great portrait, by the way!!). Also it is cool how those blending modes make it look as if her arms are outside of the frame. I wouldn't mind seeing the blue blotches removed from her face, but I do like the blotches on her shirt and I like the lined texture on her face. This looks great!!

Almost like canvas. Maybe it got left out for a season and started to weather in the sun and rain.

Nice shot of Joyah, Charlie. When I start with an overlay that has portions that I know will obstruct the main image, I use either the clone tool or the healing brush to alter it before applying it to the image. (I also save a copy of it in the altered form if it's one that I know I'll use again, especially if the editing took a while.) If you've already applied the overlay, you can still edit out the unwanted areas by selecting just the layer that you'll be working on, and perhaps clicking off other layers to better see what you're doing. Hope this helps. :)
