Fancy Shoe

 I am trying to do more organizing, it seems to be a nonstop thing for me, I have it one way and then decide that isn't quite working for me so I try something new.  Through my stamp and cardmaking groups and sweet blog friends I have over time received a lot of goodies to play with, and they are everywhere in my room, under different categories.  I thought it would be good to have them all in one place and to challenge myself to use them at least once a month.  I decided to go with one that I have had for many years, it isn't quite my style I guess so I didn't use it but the lady this is going to I hope she does.


The paper pack I chose to use with it also had a sheet of these tags inside so I used one for the framing of the shoe that I fussy cut and one to stamp my sentiment on.

  • Stamp image unknown, colored w/markers
  • DCWV - The Primrose paper
  • ODBD - Mini tag sentiment stamp
  • Pearl drops



Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by and saying Hi,

Connie

i get the whole shoe thing, i am not a shoe person either. BUT this is really beautiful, i really like all of the colors you selected!! i do think you can make anything your own, the paper and background remind me of you!! i'm sure whomever gave you this will be happy to see that you have used it!!

organizing, an endless battle right?? when the pandemic started i cleaned and organized EVERYTHING, and it kept me busy. and i actually enjoyed it!! now, i am a little over it...but the house stayed pretty good. i have just been doing the day to day things!!

don't overdo it, you want to stay healthy!!

Happy organising, I tend to do a little at a time :)

I like the card and colours you've used.

All the best Jan

I think you've done a great job of "making it your own." It's certainly a unique shoe, and you've colored and showcased it well.

Oh baby, once you start you can't stop until it is completely finished....therefore I will not start! lol I did this a couple of years ago, you really have to gear yourself up for this undertaking! Pretty, pretty card! Love that dainty floral shoe, sits perfectly on that pretty background!

What a great way to challenge your self, Connie. I love the idea of using those kinds of supplies once a month. I am trying the same thing with my to be finished box. Your card looks fabulous. I actually enjoy being forced out of my comfort zone in these creations. I am especially enjoying using old stash products with newer techniques. I’ve learned that a lot from you. Thanks for the inspiration! Huggers, de

So cute! Happy organizing. I'm trying to sort of the same thing. (To get my things used instead of sitting in a drawer!

This is a super cute and flirty, fun, girly card! I loved my pretty heels when I was younger, but now I go for comfort which, hopefully, is still nice. Sketchers are my go-to shoe. I like your idea of going to these little gifted treasures once a month. I should do something similar. Organization is an ongoing thing!
