Hello again, This is baby Astrid, as you can see, she is quite tiny! I am finally....getting better at making tiny eyes. Astrids eyes are not computer generated, they are hand painted, only 1.5 mm! I coated them with fimo baking gel, which gives even the tiniest eyes, a clear lens, and makes them look very realistic! Little Astrid measures just two inches long! I made her little dress and bonnet from a small piece of vintage style lace in cream and pink. Her little diaper was made from a 3/4 inch triangel of pink cotton! Hope you are all having a great week! xoxox Christel
Astrid is for sale on my ebay now!
Oh Christel, how do you do this?
ReplyDeleteShe is so tiny and just a bundle of love! What a little sweetheart.. I love her clothes you have fashioned for her..
Wishing you the very best on her auction my friend.. I am sure some lucky person will snatch her up.. Oh gosh she is sweet!
Love and blessings,
Penny

Thank you both! I have a weakness for the redheads! Hope you are having a great day! xoxox Christel
ReplyDeleteLittle Astrid is absolutely the most adorable baby girl. You are amazing! I have a hard time painting eyes 10x the size of the ones you painted for this sweet baby and what I do never turn out as nice. You have a rare gift my friend. BTW I too have a weakness for redheads. xoxox

ReplyDeleteChristel,
ReplyDeleteYou amaze me girl, and why did you not become a doctor in fine surgeries. With your tiny delicate skills you should have been a surgeon.
In sorts you are, and the creating of your fine work is so evident.
Love all you create over here, you need to wow us with your place of studio works, with all your fine tools about, and clay that takes on what ever you vision it to be.
It was pure joy to see your visit at my place.
Lots of hugs, hearts, and kisses to you this fine filled with love February.
Xoxo
See you soon
Doré
