I am having so much fun with this template...I love this little boot!!! This boot is similar to the boot I made the other day but stepped up a little bit (the added flower, the pearls....yummy!)
Here is the supply list for this creation(all supplies are Stampin' Up!) I have not included the supplies for the flowers as they were yesterday's post:
- Stocking Die (for the Big Shot) - makes the boot bottom and topper (need 2 in Basic Black)
- embossing folder...any of the "pretty" patterns work great
- 3 1/2 inch circle (I use the 3 1/2 inch Big Shot die) - two of these in Basic Black
- 1 3/4 inch circle punch - punched out of the 3 1/2 inch circle for the toe of the boot
- Big Shot Machine
- Ribbon - 1 1/4 inch strips
- Pearls
- Frightful Sights DSP - 1 x 5 1/2 inch strips then edged with a scallop punch
- box in the middle of the two boots - I used 3 x 8 1/2 sored at 1/2 and 2 1/2 then 4 and 4 1/2 in the other direction
If you want your boot to be a bigger box, simply increase the width of the box (mine is 1/2 an inch.) If you want the box to be say 1 inch wide, you'd need a piece of cardstock 4 x 9 and score at 1 and 3 and 4 and 5 in the other direction. I hope you like this creation and the video helps! Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
Take care,
Heather
Heather, I love your witches boot so much. When I finally saw your boot it was a little late in the season to show in my clubs. So I took your idea and changed it up to an Elf Boot. I was having a problem with the balancing of the boot when something is put in the box so I added a small box inside the toe that balances it out perfectly.
The dimensions for the box in the toe: 3"x5-1/2" scored on the 3" side at 1/2" and 2-1/2" and scored on the 5-1/2" side at 1/2", 2-1/2", 3", and 5". This makes a closed box. It turned out adorable.
Thanks again!
