is none other than THE LEGENDARY MARILYN MONROE! Sorry Cindy, Michael Jackson never had blond hair and blue eyes...though maybe he had wished for them. I don't mean any disrespect for his passing.
Okay, so isn't she lovely, beautiful and wonderful. I am a fan of this lady, thus my scs name huh. Changed the Monroe to Preston, for there can never be 2 Marilyn Monroes, don't you agree! Oh and she is a character in the book I've been writing for at least as long as I've known how to. LOL
though she does look like Marilyn, I think she is a french actress or...hum kind of shot myself in the foot with this one, I don't even know who she is. If someone does, please tell me, I told you my secret! LOL
I did a double challenge, gotta make them count you know. This week Crafty creations were suggesting we use stars and banners, not only for the 4th of july but how we felt like. So I used this one appropriately for Marilyn and Marilyn is a STAR, so that's 2! Here is the link to the challenge:

I always wondered where you got your user name from! We were at a wedding near Barcelona a few years back, and the girl we were staying with had the entire Marilyn Monroe collection on DVD, so now when I see any of her films it reminds me of that visit. Perfect collage here!
Thanks for sharing your proud mother day .
