The Three Muses Challenge - Showtime

Maybelle and Melvin could show them young'ns a thing or two!  Showtime was any time for them when the banjo played.
The image of the heel clicking Melvin is a Terri Kahrs freebie - altered and with lower part added.  Thanks Terri!  I am not sure where the lady's face came from. Man's legs and feet and lady's dress painted by me.  Background bits and pieces, banjo and lady's shoes by Lorie Davison at Scrapbook Grapphics.

  23. What a fun picture! Reminds me of the days long ago when my parents had square dances in our basement. We use to have a great time. I wouldn't dare tell my kids anything about it, though. They'd put me in a rest home before it's time.
