I started out by covering all parts with white gesso, giving a good painting surface. Then I chose a quote from the Fashion Quotes sheet and cut a window in the piece that is just the foot - this gave some more depth to my boot.
Second
job was to paint the foot piece a pale green, and to paint the heel
with stripes (I have a pair of shoes with striped heels and I love
them!). Once the paint was dry I stamped a background vine stamp over
the boot with green ink, then to add texture I mixed a small amount of
green paint into some texture paste then used a stencil randomly over
the boot.
Once this was all dry, I glued the quote behind the window, and the two pieces onto the whole boot piece.
Last
was the butterflies, I also painted them first with gesso then with
different coloured paints. Once they were dry I stamped a script stamp
over them, and bent the wings up slightly and glued only in the centre.
The bodies of the butterflies are small pale green pearls.
Enjoy crafting, Life Well, Laugh Often, Love Much, and Wear Cute Shoes!
