I wanted to do a special card for a lovely friend that helped me out this week with some kind words. Even though we live across the ocean from each other, she has been really sweet in lifting my spirits. If you get a chance do check out her blog, she does incredible work!

Hi Marilyn,
Thank you so much for the lovely comment, you are so sweet. The boots are actually part of the Flourishes stamp set. After I stamped them I fussy cut them out. I think now for some of their newer sets you can buy SVG cut files in the shape of the stamp so you can cut the shape and them stamp it. I have not tried them yet but plan to do it soon.
Thanks again,
Hugs*

Hi Priss,
I actually cut the Umbrella 3 times and then cut 2 of them apart and glued the pieces onto the first cut. I also wanted a little pop so I curled the umbrella and them fastened it to the card. I am always partial to making something dimensional. lol
Thanks for the comment, I always look forward to hearing from you.
Hugs*
Joann
