I saw this challenge over at heather-bittenbythebug2 and thought golly why Garden boots. But then I thought, think of it as a challenge. It helped that my dads birthday is next week and I hadn't made a card yet, so as I scrolled through the boots I had on my cartridges til I found this one on the 'Dude' Cart. It reminded me of my dad and his work boots, so I welded the image and it's blackout together into a card. Then I cut it out twice so I could add the steal caps and the contrast color inside. I added some depth by distressing and thuoght I was done...
When I took it to show AJ he said wheres the sole! Darnit... He was right, it needed a black rubber sole. So back tot he craft room and out with the Distress Embossing powder ( had to open it...)
I am pretty impressed with the outcome and once again reminded that you can pop out a pretty impressive card in a short time when you play with the Cricut.
Supplies:
