And we're back! Melanie and Joy's Caribbean Cricut vacation and "week after" recovery is over and we're so glad to be crafting again!
Welcome to today's fun boot scootin' easy card! I used the boot from the Just Because Cards cartridge and using the flip and weld feature on the Gypsy, I created a shaped card.
I set the size at 5" for the boot shadow layer and created the deep pink card layer. Then, using the boot layers, I made all the other parts. The card measures approximately 5" tall by 3" wide. It would make a really cute card to go on a gift bag also due to it's smaller size.
I love to use the Cuttlebug Tiny Bubbles folder to add texture to my cuts - especially things like balls, whales, fish and of course, these boots. By sanding some of the bubbles, I created an ostrich/leather like texture for the boots. Some gems and faux stitching finish things off.
I love, love, love this "Brave Girls" stamp set by Melody Ross for Unity Stamps (see HERE to buy them). How cute and inspiring is this message!
Want to see a "guy version" of this card? Check out my personal blog at Obsessed with Scrapbooking to see the complementary card.
I will have the Gypsy file up for this boot card tomorrow and will have a link to it. Working out some issues with 4shared...
Melanie is doing some fun, funky stuff with the Imagine machine on her blog, Courtney Lane Designs! Don't miss out on her project today!
Have a great day!

Love, love, love the hot pink boot! I still need to play with my gypsy to figure out how to make a shape card by flipping and welding. By the way, that would make a great tutorial video if you have the time.

This card is soooooo cute. I have a friend that's a huge cowgirl who would just love this! I'm definitely going to have to make this somehow.
Very cute card...I love to make shaped cards, but have not done a boot yet. The "bubbles" cuttlebug folder worked great for the embossing. TFS.
Kathryn
Oh yes! What a neat card! thanks for the idea!
Very cute! I love how you embossed the texture, too. I also like the brown one on your blog.
I love this card! I haven't tried using Gypsy to make a shape into a card, yet. When you have the video up, I'm sure it will explain it all. Thanks, Joy. BethAnn M.
Cute boot card!
This is so cute! I am a new gypsy user, so I love that you used the flip and weld. Cannot wait to try this. Thank you for the inspiration!
I love cowboy boots, and so also I looove this card its adorable!
Great boot card! Love that its pink! TFS
hugs,
joni
Love it! Very cute for a dance party invite too.
Does one have to have a Gypsy in order to get this to work? Yes, I know one should - but I don't yet and am unsure what/how they tie in.
Making a shaped card is much cuter than the actual card in Just Because. I imagine that I could adapt the directions using Design Studio ??
Your card is soooo super cute!! Love the bling!!
This just brings out the Cowgirl in all of us-great idea and always love another way to use my Cricut cartridges!
Cute card! Thanks for sharing.

What a cute card. I'm going to have to scraplift the idea...my 3year old GS wanted cowboy boots for his birthday last week and when he got them he was thrilled and I was thinking I needed to do a layout with boots and here you go! Thanks so much for the inspiration.
Love your boot card. I used to have blue boots, loved them. I don't have anything for welding the card, but could use a brad to make mine. Thanks for sharing.
