The Making of a Mime….part 4



Added more to the Mime.  All those folds….you’d think it would be pretty easy, but apparently sometimes the shadows come off of the fold in opposing directions!  I guess it depends on the loose-ness of the crease.  Also, how tightly the creases are stacked together.



Challenge  Ex-tror-din-aire!!  And I didn’t care….just wanted the embroidery of the top to be noticeable and somewhat believable. 



The stitching along the edge of the robe….simple!!  It was time for simple!



Just wanted to show you a close-up of the tassels!  Probably best to do them before the fact….not after.  Not much detail applied.



I can’t avoid this next step any longer…..the Heads!  The Faces!  Can’t wing it here either, you guys are hard to fool!

About Me

My photo
By day...I work in the Healthcare field, where every .. i.. has to be dotted and every ..t.. has to be crossed. This blog is the place where I can let myself go and have some fun. I am on a journey. A journey I started a long time ago, but it has been a bit sidetracked with Navy Wife relocations and raising kids. I finally see the light at the end of the tunnel and I have got some time for me. No, I will not be one of those moms walking around the house with Empty Nest Syndrome, I have got way too much to do, to learn, to create. Sure, once the kids are gone I will miss them....but hey, there is always the phone, the email, the texting and the Plane tickets! I love my life and my family and It is fun moving into this new stage. I am into Digital Scrapbooking, photography, journaling, Art Journaling and Drawing. I am a do-it-yourselfer and I am trying to teach myself to draw. I am finding that it takes a lot of patience, lots of practice and a good eraser!
