The brief was to make something special for a work colleague for his wife's 50th Birthday. I'd been given a list of likes and because I knew her as well I decided to combine it with her bright and funky personality.
So enter Now That's Funky and the Lollipop paper collection.
Everything I've made is from my own templates with some inspiration from Pinterest here and there. Plus some half pearls and lots of half glass diamonds for bling plus a die cut sentiment.
I was given a verse to use which I printed onto a medium scallop Sizzix tag and then cut a larger size so that a message could be handwritten onto it. This fitted beautifully into the shoe! More luck than planning!
The shoe was actually quite easy to make once I'd got my head around what I needed to do and how it would glue together. I reinforced the heel just in case and the sole of the shoe has the same papers as inside the box.
It created quite a bit of a stir in the office when I brought it in to hand over. And the recipient loved it!
