Cosplayer CherryTeaGirl > Costume of Amulet Spade from Shugo Chara!

Costume Difficulty:
4 / 5

Construction Details:
The shorts are lined with the same fabric in/out. The shirt is also lined and added interface to the points to keep them straight. The ruffles were cut, sewed (double layers), and gathered by me. The hat, made from a Vogue pattern is also lined and interfaced. The spade brooch on it is made out of vinyl material and stuffed with poly-fill. The socks were made by me (but only down to the ankle, like leg warmers). I started learning how to do resin casting from WindoftheStar's video tutorials <3, super awesome! I casted the hearts on the Humpty Lock. And used craft foam for the lock itself...just pieced them together with hot glue, Mog Podge the entire lock, and spray painted gold.

Personal Thoughts:
I love the color blue, drawing, Buono, and Shugo Chara! My friend Jenjen is Amu-Clover, she's really good at cooking!! Watch our award winning skit here:
