Hi,
What a beautiful day we have had today, the sun is shining, the sky is blue, its not that warm yet but its a lovely day hopefully it will stay for the Bank Holiday weekend we have this weekend.
This is the card for the CD Sunday Challenge - Stepping out, I only just made it in time last week, so I put my best foot forward and got it made in plenty of time.
I cut the card in the shape of a boot, it seems ages since I made a boot, I covered the boot with a backing paper from Joanne Sheens CD Enchanted Dreams, I made the holes up the side and put some ribbon in and out for the laces. Then added a spray of flowers, with leaves, and roses in two shades of pink with a butterfly, and a die cut label and put a gold peel of greeting.
I really enjoyed making this card, as I say its a long time since I did a boot, I think I must make a few more. The craft room is taking shape, its just filling all the boxes in the storage in cabinet, I knew I had a lot of craft stash and I have found a few bits that I had forgotten, Its good to have a spring clean every so often.
I hope you have a lovely Bank Holiday weekend, whether you stay at home or like us go away.
Until we meet again take care.
Hugs
Margaret

I love the pretty colour combo you've used Margaret. I hate sorting out my craft room as I always get side tracked and end up throwing very little away. Good luck with yours and thank you for joining us again at CD Sunday. Wynn DT
ReplyDeleteClever to use the ribbon as laces. Yes, you'll find all sorts of things when you move your stash! Enjoy your weekend.
