I am cleaning closet with Audrie's IC571 today...clearing out all those bunion inducing heels and putting 'sensible' shoes in their place. Oh, yes, I have to admit I worshipped at the alter of fashion for enough years to ruin my feet. Now I just drool from afar...
There is lots of inspiration to be found on the Bag, Borrow, or Steal site. I could seriously play all day. I just about squealed to spy this manufacturer Charlotte Olympia.
Though I can just imagine tottering on those 6 inch spikes, seriously who wears this stuff?!!!
The 'Fabulous' Stampin' UP! shoe was inked onto white cs and then I colored the leaves and butterflies with Copics. The flowers were inked onto various Basic Grey colored papers, embossed with clear ep and then fussy cut and placed on the base. It was placed onto the aqua bg and I stamped the sentiment directly to the dp.
I wanted the trim ribbon to be as fussy as the shoe, so there are two different textures tied together. I added a velvet brown flower and used a pearl brad in the center. Fun, fun, fun and certainly less painful. SMILE.
I would love to hear about your MOST fav pair of shoes. Please leave me a story. Thanks so much.

Well, let me tell you there are not too many fabulous shoes in my size. I wear a women's size 13!!! Well, I am nearly 6' tall also. A gal has to have something to stand on. I have never been able to wear those gorgeous looking shoes with the high heels - not that I ever needed the height. My favorite and mostly ONLY pairs of shoes are New Balance tennis shoes. In fact, I ordered a new pair today. I'm lucky to find anyone that stocks my size. So, I don't dress up too much either. I also wear orthotics. Thankfully I can walk in comfort and do my gardening and walking my dogs, which are two of my favorite activities. :>) Aren't you glad I shared?! :>)

your card is gorgeous I love your shoe, I've got very small feet my size is only 4 (35 in France) so I buy often children shoes...but they are mostly very fun and I never wear high heels, I think I would walk like a goose with heels...but I love to see them on other's feet

Wow, you really do think outside the box when you create! I can't imagine coloring all this much less fussy cutting as much as you do! I also love that you always choose a sentiment that works so well with your awesome stamps. This is fabulous, Susan!

Love your floral shoe here, Susan, as beautiful as your inspired one!! I have a small foot, size 5, so do not find it easy getting shoes in my size. My favourite pair were the silver ones I wore a month ago to my son's wedding, they are so pretty with a bit of bling and were so comfortable, with a 2 1/2 in heel.

I still love my heels and wear them every chance I get. I once had foot surgery and my only question was how soon can I get back in these shoes. Giggles! I know some day I will have to give them up but will keep wearing them until then. Super cute stamp and wonderful card for the inspiration.
