The Three Muses Challenge - Hair

Image is from an old perfume poster (Googled). Background notepaper is by Katie Pertiet, crown by Dawn van der Stoep, Creativewing Designs.

I couldn't resist creating a tongue-in-cheek entry for this week's Muses so decided to post two versions of the theme.

The image is a Flickr-free-to-use, black and white and vintage, coloured with hair added. Wig was Googled. Most of the ephemera is by Tangie Baxter with some pieces Googled.

  2. A great theme this week again Marie !!
    I've also concidered to make two. I had so much (funny) ideas.
    I love the red hair of your first piece !
    Did you know that, i my childhood. i had the same colour ?? LOL
    The called me often a "red lighthouse" hahaa.
    But you know...i didn't care because i was PROUD on my colour !!
    Your second piece reminds me of my sis in her twenties. She wore exactly the same wig with the Carnaval here in the Netherlands.
    Ow..i have to tell her this !!!
    ****
    Have a nice day !!

The second card is something you do so well...tongue in cheek...I love her big hair. Awesome! And may I thank you for all of your kind words on my blog as I wait for hip replacement surgery. You're wonderful in so many ways. Hugs, LynnF

  14. I couldn't participate this week because of time limitations (my husband's been having a few health problems), but I had to comment on both of your GORGEOUS entries, Marie! OUTSTANDING work! My jaw dropped when I saw your first entry on the Muses homepage. BRAVO! Hugs, Terri xoxo
