oh lovin' all this weeks Rainbow challenges...here's a super quick card for my size 12 son! Aren't these Converse chevron shoes just perfectly original and right on trend? Seems like shoe obsessions are genetic! I remember 'testing' my DH when we were dating by telling him I had 90 pairs of shoes...he didn't flinch! Well, I've paired down those shoes over the decades, but I still have a 'thing'...and son &D, well really Sam too. I get emails with links to shoes they've seen online that they 'like'...thank goodness for Zappos outlet site.
The shoe was cut from a catalog direct to paper. I stamped the quote by John Mason in the chalkboard style embossing it with Candy Turquoise ep. It was tiny stapled to a slightly larger die cut rectangle. The top has a measuring tape strip with the #12 highlighted in &D's favorite color...oh those tiny baby feet...no more!
Thanks for stopping by, I'd totally love to vicariously live in your shoes stories, if you are so inclined!!!

Love your card! The sneakers are terrific! When I retired, I was shocked to find I had over 60 pairs of shoes. I donated all but 10 pairs. Now I pretty much live in sneakers.

How fun fun FUN! DS was a sneaker freak ... omgosh, he had so many nike's/bb shoes that his friend's would have a running count and do re-counts when they came over. lol! Now that he's grown, the love of shoes continues but thankfully the 'collection' is more sophisticated. Love your design and your impeccable chalkboard stamping!!! Fabulously fun!
