Halloween Shoes & Shoe Box

Back In April I had gone to a workshop at Joan's Gardens

 and she had

just received some of her new winter CHA items....

one of the items were the new Brenda Walton Sizzix Bigz dies....

 

 

When I saw the "ballroom slippers" I just had to have it....

 

This is the first time I have really had the time to play with it....

 

 

I decided to make a pair of Halloween shoes to display with my other Halloween décor....

I have a ton of Halloween stamps, papers and such

, but last year I hardly used any of it....

so it was fun to get an early start !!

 

 

There is a "youtube" about making a box for these shoes by

 "Live Love Scrap"

and they are super easy to make.....

the only thing I learned about the shoe itself is,

 if using the heel, you need to place it

in further from the back to make it stand up better.....

I made the flowers on the shoe with ribbon

and I know it is hard to tell,

but I added a bat on a wire coil in the middle

of the flower!
The star on the box is a paper mache one that I
painted back and then added glitter.....

 

 

I am entering this in the challenge at 

 Simon Says Monday Challenge

to "make the cut"

meaning use dies, punches, etc.....
