Paper Playtime & Practical Scrappers Challenge

A few days ago I found a cute little blog called Paper Playtime.  The have a challenge for anyone that would like to participate.  They based the challenge on  the phrase 'If the shoe fits, buy one of every color'; so the challenge is to make something with either a shoe or variety.

I am a country girl through and through.  The first thing that came to mind when I read ' if the shoe fits' was the phrase from Toy Story 2 with Jesse saying "If the boot fits . . ."  I knew my card should have a boot.  I just thought this was perfect (at least as a card from me). :)

Before the project was completed I knew it was missing something, but I wasn't sure what.  Well I started looking through blog-land and found Practical Scrappers.  They have a challenge to use buttons.  Well, searched through my buttons and found the perfect one.  The picture doesn't quite do it justice - it's a very rustic looking button.  I put some string through it to give it a little pop.

Here's a close-up of the phrase.  I printed the phrase off on my computer.
As well as a close up of the button.

The boot is from Old West.  I just used a scrapbook pen to trace the cuts (since I don't own a Cri-kit Pen).  The background paper is from a stack I found at Tuesday Morning's, the dark blue has the flocking on it.  Thanks for stopping by!!!
