Oh, I have a fun project to share today. I had it on my calendar, this month, to make these shoes that I ran across on a website. In fact there was a challenge but alas, it looks like I was a couple of days late. Well, I wanted to make them anyway and I think they are gonna be a little bit addicting, lol!! Who doesn’t like pretty shoes, right?!? From the moment I saw JustRite Stampers new set called Kaleidoscope Borders and Centers, they reminded me of the kind of filigree medallions we would wear on our shoes and I wanted them for my shoes. Of course those medallions always had a pearl in the center, so do mine :-).
I found the pattern for the shoes on THIS website however I modified the pattern to fit my needs. I wanted a longer, more feminine looking shoe so I narrowed the bottom, shortened the toe covering and added height to the heel. I added crepe paper and pleated ribbon to the toe of the shoe and then added the medallion. The shoe is distressed with Vintage Photo distress ink. I wanted so bad to put a tassel on those shoes but I realized there will be many more pairs to come :-)
In addition I made a card to go along with the set. It was sweet to pull out another JustRite Stampers set called Girl Time Borders and Centers Set and use the sentiment that says Pretty Shoes Sure Can Cure The Blues. I stamped the sentiment and cut it in half and inserted in on both sides of my medallion. I cut down the Spellbinders Scalloped Edge Frame to fit the area that I needed and bordered the bottom of the card with ruffled ribbon.

OMGosh, Becca…I am speechless!!
I love the stamp set (of course) but these SHOES!!!!!!!!!! LOL!!

Love these shoes … what a great idea for a bridal shower … you are so very talented … I love visiting your blog … I learn so much and it makes me want to create … thanks for sharing
niesamowite, buty po prostu wymiataj?, wygl?daj? tak realnie
Boy are you one crafty clever lady Becca, those shoes are to die for.
I love this! I am a shoe person!! I wear a size 4 1/2 in dress shoes, and not the children’s size 4 which is more like a ladies size 6, so I have to order my dress shoes when I find some I like but the up side is that I can wear children’s size 3 in flats and boots. These look like Cinderella shoes and I love them – I would buy 3 or 4 pairs in different colors, please.
I tell U you can never have to many shoes and I do like your and the card to
Those shoes are too cute. They remind me of the shoes I would wear before I had enough since to value my feet.

These shoes are absolutely AMAZING. Great job!

I never knew you could make shoes……how amazing….thank you for sharing….
***THUD*** Absolutely INCREDIBLE Becca!!!
What a fun project. Your shoes look amazing and so real.
I love the design paper and how you ahve distressed the edges.
Those medallions look great on them. It’s nice to see another way of using them. Super job as usual Becca.
Hugs Marion
Awesome shoes! Looooove them! Great work as usual!!

Becca, For a shoe lover this is a fantastic project. Saturday may have a new pair of shoes in my future(or 2 or 3 or…).
carol b.
I’m speechless…your work is so meticulously well done and amzing!!!!
These shoes are stunning. I just watched the video tutorial and am amazed at how simple the process seems. Somehow though, you make them look even more amazing then the originals she made. You are amazing! Can you tell that I’m amazed?? LOL!
Fantastic shoes!! Do you have the modified template? My M-I-L collects shoes so this would be just perfect for her!!! Love it! Thanks for the inspiration.
TOOOOO Cute!!!!!!!!!!!!
A lady can never have too many pairs of shoes!!! These are lovely and so is the card. Thank you, Becca.
Sally Gasparri
This is stunning and I would love to try this, but what did you use for your heel on these shoes? Just wondering because your heel on these shoes looks more like a real heal than what the lady had used in her video. Thanks for shaing.
Oh where do you get all your wonderful ideas? I LOVE them! Very cute yet so elegent.
You are simply amazing and the shoes remind me of the “good old days” trying to walk in Mama’s high heels. Even today I am not good at walking in high heels (of course, I had a serious ankle break which didn’t help) :)
Wow, Wow, and Wow again. You never cease to amaze and impress me. I really have never cared about any of the shoes I’ve
seen before but this time I have changed my mind! Terrific Becca!
Well done and beautiful workmanship. Thanks for sharing.
The card is lovely – so clever to cut the sentiment in half and make it fit what you wanted! Those lovely shoes – stunning, my dear, simply stunning! Ginger Rogers would have danced beautifully in them. :-)
What fabulous shoes, I love them, and the card is gorgeous, love how you did the ribbon.
Love this project!!!!!!
You are just one Fabulous creative person! Those shoes are beautiful! And the card is gorgeous too. When looking at the picture before reading your post, I thought those ‘toe covers’ were really!
Becca,
Your shoes are beautiful, gorgeous, darling, and amazing! I could go on and on but I think you get the idea! I agree with some of the earlier posters – I like your shoes better than the original! They are cute too but yours are unbelievable. Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent with us. I look forward to checking your site to view your fantastic artwork! Thank you! Brenda
Oh Becca! What a beautiful and super-creative project! How DO you come with this lovely stuff! I would love shoes like that…. so pretty.

That is the most beautiful shoes I have ever seen. Pitty they’re not real. I would have bought them to wear. Thanks for sharing.

as always, gorgeous art pieces.
neat pair of shoes. Nice card to go with it.
These are absolutely beautiful. I love to make 3-D items. I just have one question: Were these your first attempt? It usually takes me a several tries to make an item, and these are incredible!
I’m sure Marie would have loved to have these in her collection. What a masterpiece. I watched the video and was really impressed at how easy and fun it is to make these. The papers are so beautiful and the adornments really finish it off. Thanks for showing us your creation.
Beautiful!
God bless you.
