I combined with

Opened texture and photo, copied texture and placed on top of photo.
Set opacity of texture to 70%
Made copy of photo and placed above texture covering with layer mask.
painted over layer mask to reveal Mary's face erasing most of the texture on her eyes.
Made a copy of the texture and placed it on top of Mary's face and set the blending mode to Multiply. Set opacity to 50%.
Made a copy of photo and put on top set opacity to 45% added layer mask and painted again to get Mary's skin the way I wanted it. I also desaturated this layer a little.
Created new empty layer and set blending mode to soft light for a dodge/burn overlay layer. Darkened the edges.
Sharpened

Great expression for a girl who seems to be trapped inside a tree :o ! Looks like it could be a page from a children's storybook. I'd agree with Judy about a bit less texture on the face. Cute one!

I really like that. I might've erased back a smidge on her face but this is fun stuff.
