The card for this challenge was inspired by this pair of shoes http://www.robeez.com/Robeez-Soft-So...t=2&Lang=EN-US How adorable are these shoes???? We had a Canadian Flag pair for our boys when they were small. Loved them.
I wanted to use die cut images to imitate the leather designs on the shoes. The images on the shoes aren't terribly detailed and that's why I thought they would fit nicely with the Clean and Simple style. This card was just a matter of die cutting, sticking the bits on, and stamping a sentiment. I finished it off with some SU! twill ribbon.
Thanks to whoever posted the tip to run the twill between your thumb and a bone folder to soften it up. Great trick! Much easier to tie that way.
