MAY FEEBIE FRIDAY........from the costume closet

This month for Freebie Friday I thought it might be fun to head to the theater for inspiration and I came up with some inspirational vintage costume illustrations for all of you to create with.
I am a huge fan of the theater and here is a little known fact about me....I actually went to school to be a costume designer! I had aspirations to be the next Edith Head or Bob Mackey.......needless to say I was not a fan of sewing the costumes so that ended that and I went into art instead! Amazing how things work out. Please enjoy the images and don't forget to tell all your crafting friends to come grab their images!
Happy Crafting
