These Boots Are Made For Walking!

It is sketch time this week at Dutch Dare! 

This sketch was designed by my bestest buddy Dorcas

(You can reclaim your title girlfriend!)

Please hop on over and join us in the fun!

We would love to see your take on the sketch!

I had the hardest time with this card, but am very happy with the 

end results!  I had  a vision in my head and it was not 

coming out like I had planned.  A friend of mine

gave me a whole bunch of her shoes, due to the fact

that she had twins and her feet grew and she could no longer

use them.  It was awesome!  My husband brought them

home one night and lined them up nice and pretty

for me so when I woke up SURPRISE!!  It was a happy day!

I got the sleep out of my eyes quickly that morning!

Anyway, I had this image in my head of the card I wanted to make.

 I had a gazillion wonderful shoe images

 downloaded, but could not make them work! I had these

wonderful leather looking papers and thought I would paper piece.

Wasted some very pretty paper! Then I tried embossing, not

working.  Then I tried just cutting the digis and tracing it on the paper.

It started to come together.  Worked great for the boot.  The shoes

were lacking something.  Then I remembered I have the

 Forever Young Cricut Cartridge that has shoes! That 

could have saved me oodles of time, paper and just hassle!

After I had remembered that, It started to come together

and  it pretty much came out like the vision in my head.

Love when that happens!
