Shoes, Shoes, Shoes

The ones close to me know that i have a fetish for shoe (oh and clothes lol)
I found a template for these shoes sometime ago and had put it in a safe place, that safe i couldn't find it until i had a clean up the other day lol. So i have been playing.........................

They are gorgeous and would make a great pressie for someone (i thought maybe teachers, although would have to make a manly one for Jess's teacher), just stuff them full of goodies and viola...
Closeup pics , all products used are from Scrap Matrix, German Scrap, Laces, Beaded Trim,Bling, Buttons, Papers, die- cut tags................

The one's below were made by Jordan ( daughter of friends that have been staying with us, pretty good for a 12 year old, that's how easy they are. Now she can make them for her friends & teachers too!!)
