A Different Kind of Cameo

Early one morning I was doodling while taking in the news and it lead to making these cameos.

This was a great way to use fabric I dyed this summer.

As I was satin stitching the edges, I started adding the squiggly tentacles. I like this look a lot. In the next cameo I cut the fabric in this way. This cutting takes a lot of patience but it’s really worth it.

I fooled around a little with a free clip art frame I found online. 

This would be awesome as an actual carved frame. I’m still turning this frame over in my mind. I don’t want to just print it. Cutting out of mat board would be insane. I’m just not that good at cutting this much detail with a knife.

Thanks for visiting!
