Every woman know that this saying is oh so true!!! Some of us more than others!!
I have made this card for the Featured Stamper Challenge on SCS where this weeks FS is DawnL, her gallery is extensive and such a variety of cards to choose from...after pages and pages I decided on this one:
and although I used the basic layout I changed the image, DP's and added a flower and paper piercing! All of the edges have been sponged to give an aged look. The fabulous flower centre is one that a friend gave me, amongst the dozens of others - what a find...they are ALL great for flower centers...this one inparticular has the vintaged look that I love! I would love to have added more to the card, but tried to stay true to Dawn's card, without getting carried away!
The shoe is chalked (of course) and Kindy Glitz is added to the heart and the strap - cause a girl's just gotta have BLING!!! This actually looks like our neighbours 17 year old daughters shoes for ballroom dancing....Emily is such a natural and a pleasure to watch...she has shoes to 'die for' (not literally!!!) Oprah defers to her shoes by the amount of time she can wear them - she has 10 minute shoes (probably just like these ones) 30 minutes, 1 hour shoes...so what is it with women and shoes - if you know, then please leave a comment...I would love to know!

I love shoes too. But this one would be a "0" minute shoe for me. I can't get in those high heels without breaking something and that would be on my body. Still. I long for them sometimes, what a leg they make. Oooh la la!
Love your card Linda, and you are as talented as lovely, you know that right! TFS and cheers again for the guest hostessing. YAY!

Well, I've always been a sensible shoes kinda girl. Pumps, yes, but classy lower heeled one in sensible Navy Blue or Black. Ivana Trump, I am not! However, these are most lovely , Linda!! What colours to you use to sponge your papers??? I was just out on a heyday at a new store - a good hour away - to buy a bunch of new papers!!! OH Paper - now that's my vice!
