Well you've improoved in the regard that the stock you've added fits rather well, and it's interesting! But when you're blurring make sure you don't overdo it. Crispness to a photo is what makes it better than good - and although points of soft focus can be good to lead the eye around the work, try not to do it on what you feel is the main focus (and text). And if you do make sure that you can still see the detail. Here - if the girl and the was in focus and the thing she is blowing was slightly less it would create a better effect. But, as I said, you've improoved, keep it up!

Very good! Incredible!! You are improving every time in leaps and bounds!!

I love the way you used the blur effect to create this magical, dreamy, mythical effect! It pulls forth that sweet innocent feel we had when we were children and blowing away the fluff off dandelions!!

You are totally rocking!!
