Another Submission, this time from.........

Michelle Winston - She's a Lady

When I heard that we were doing Vermeer, and his painting “The Head Of A Girl” (also known as The Girl With The Pearl Earring) I was a bit worried.
Add in criteria of a single portrait type photo, and an earring somewhere on the page, and I was REALLY worried !
But, as it turns out, some rather fabulous photos from a recent retreat were a perfect match for the challenge !
She’s A Lady is inspired by the positioning in the painting...a turned head, and a glimpse of the earring. It is also greatly inspired by the 70’s !
Who would have thought Vermeer of the 1600’s, and the era of the 1970’s could coexist on a scrapbook page ? Not me...but here it is.
I hope you like it as much as I do.

Cheers,
Michelle W
