I have been having a lot of fun creating altered items this past month so I decided to continue with that theme. Quite some time ago, I came across a pattern to create paper shoes, so I thought I’d make a few. These are just so quick and easy to make. Combining them with myStamp BOX stamps plus some candy kisses just adds to the fun.
I cut the basic shoe from cardstock and the inside from pattern paper. I added a punched border around the edges. Using my Scor-Pal, it was very quick and easy to create good folds and then put the shoes together. The candy kisses were placed in a cellophane bag and inserted in the shoe and then manipulated so it fit properly. I then added ribbon and sentiments from the Mention It stamp set.
Just for You – perhaps a Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day or Teacher’s gift…..
happy day – perhaps a small birthday item….
you’re so sweet – perhaps a Valentine’s Day treat or a special treat for no reason at all
thank you – perfect for any kind of thank you that is needed
Now just change up your paper selections and I can see these shoes being used as favors at any kind of event – think bridal shower or even a baby shower. And of course, these would even be a great idea for giving as Teacher gifts or Thank You gifts or “Just Because” gifts for any occasion.
I love that template, what a wonderful thank you idea. Beautiful Stephanie.
this is so fun!!! love it!
These would be sooooo much fun for birthday party favours for my little girls party in March. Can you let us know where the pattern comes from, Stephanie? I would LOVE to create some and fill them with little goodies. Asha would love them!!
Awesome project!!!!!!!
Really fun project! So versatile!
These are so fun…love the sparkle from the kisses.
Super cute Stephanie! Love this idea!
I love this idea so much! Is there any way I can get the pattern/template that you used to make the shoes?
I have tried and failed…do you have a template
