Did You Miss Me?







LOL, I'm back again, & I bring my shoe with me... I took lots of photos, I can't believe how tiny & cute it turned out. This is my entry to INKURABLE STAMPERS monthly challenge, which, if you didn't guess by now, happens to be "shoes".
I used a template from HERE for the girl shoe, but you will find lots of different links in this month's post HERE .
I started by printing out the template, cutting it & tracing it onto some caramel coloured cs, I then got some Brilliance inks in pearlescent crimson & pearlescent coral, & stamped the tiny flowers from THIS Darkroom Door set (which was the perfect size, & was already out on my craft table), I dried the images with my heat gun, & then stamped once more with Brilliance platinum, & covered the images with pewter embossing powder. I then trimmed the shoe shape & with the aid of my trusty sewing machine, ran a tiny stitch all around the edges. I then stuck the body to the bottom of the shoe, & added the velvet flower ribbon (thanks Nicole) I might eventually do the other shoe to match, can't have just one shoe floating around, right? There's still time to take part in this month's theme, in fact you have until the end of the month, & don't worry, you don't need to make a shoe to take part, just use "shoes" as your inspiration, so give it a go, use your stamps to create : )
