It is stated that she "stole" the Evil's Fairy role and cursed Sleeping Beauty (Briar's mother) herself. Look it up.

But, it is implied to been done 100 years ago so, was she alive back in that time? Because from the picture shown in Thronecoming, she's supposed to be around Red Riding Hood's age.

Now, I know that witches are said to be able to live longer but they do get old, if she was alive 100 years ago, she shouldn't be that beautiful without magic (it's said in the first book that she can't use magic but is still described as very beautiful).
