Theme Thursday - 4 x 4's - Teachers

Thanks for the challenge. I found the beautiful image on Flickr free to use and have been waiting for an opportunity to use it. She reminds me of old-fashioned stereotypes of prim school teachers so I have given her a new identity.
The background paper is by Vera Lim and the ephemera and slate are from Fabella Designs.
