I designed a little flyer for the children at the Miracles Centre in Bosnia - these will be given to each child in the centre who have lost their families in landmines as a reminder that there is always someone nearby who cares for them and that they never walk alone.
Info about the Miracles Centre in Bosnia can be found at the below links;

I’m pretty sure these are sycamore tree seeds - but I’ve never seen them such a lovely colour of red before…
A sycamore seed is a funny shape, it has a hard edge along one of the sides, it has a curve on the outside and the seed is on the opposite side to balance it. They start off green and in a year they turn brown and drop off the sycamore tree, and spin round and around, like a propeller on a helicopter.
