Three Muses Challenge - Altered Playing Cards

Thanks to Bev for a great challenging challenge!!  The background is a ripped out page from an old dictionary, coloured and altered.  The chair, vintage playing cards and scattered "suits" are from Irene Alexeeva.  I painted the face and cut a dress from the old cards.  Lower half of the lady from an image from Tumblefish.
