We made these Baby Shoes as the party favors at my baby shower. We filled them with filler paper and then little bags of pink and white M&M's, with tags tied to the side with the baby's name on them.
I got the original idea from a few other splitcoast users, then found the directions on how to make them at: http://celadoncreations.typepad.com/...als/index.html
(go under tutorials on the right side of the website and scroll down). The template to make the shoes is from "Creative Cuts and More", which you can access right from the Celadon Creations website. (click on the highlighted "Creative Cuts and More" under step one of the directions).
When choosing paper to make these, go for something very sturdy (the more flimsy the paper was the harder it was to get them to stay nice looking), we liked the scrapbooking paper from Michaels.
Use sticky strip for everything, especially for the ribbon on the bottom of the shoe. Getting the ribbon to stay flat was the hardest part.
