All about the shoes...

I am not fashionable. I own that. I dress for comfort. As such, I would wear my Keen sandals year round if I didn't live in Minnesota, the land of 8 month winter.

Both the Efferdares and Studio Calico had fashion challenges recently, so I figured that was God's way of saying it's time to scrap your love of these shoes. So here it is:


I used Studio Calico's Back 40 for it. This is probably my 10th layout from the kit plus one add-on. Product wise, I am less than satisfied with those Basic Grey journaling spots. The adhesive damages the image on the underneath journaling spot, if that makes sense. Picture sticky notes that, when you remove one from its stack, tears the note underneath. That's these spots. Bleh. But I want to get some uses out of them, so I used them.

The photo I took by setting the timer on my camera, setting it on the floor, and yelling at my boys to stop jumping while I waited for the camera to snap. I then added a Coffeeshop action to it, Attic Vintage. I like it!

I've only done one LO with that kit so far (you've done 10! holey moley) so I'll keep that sticky problem with the BG spots in mind.
I had to laugh at your description of how you got the photo.
8 month winters... jeez...

BTW the LO design is awesome and the title is great.
Also btw -- are you doing LOAD this time 'round?

Love the shoes but must say they look like clown shoes from a straight on floor shot. Reminds me of the time I took a picture of my daughter with the camera on my knees. Boy did she look like she had humongous knockers. ;) Teach her to avoid pictures of herself.

Ummmm, throw on some wool socks with those sandals and you'd be a fashionista in Maine. LOL!
