X-Files Scully Credentials

"Mulder, it's me."

This year for Halloween, I dressed up as Dana Scully and designed my own FBI credentials. They're largely based on screenshots from the show, but I did add my own flair. This mockup gives you a better sense of the detail in the blue seal and gold badge, but I do want to take photos of the real thing.

For my costume, the designs were printed out and inserted into a black bifold wallet. There was also a vertical ID card (slightly different design) that hung on a lanyard around my neck. To complete the look, I wore a 90's navy blue suit, matching pumps, a fake gun/holster, and a gold cross necklace.

This will be my third consecutive year dressing up as a strong, redheaded, female lead character. Last year was Kim Possible and the year before that was Willow Rosenberg from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Any suggestions for next year's costume?
