Boot Camp Contest



My local scrapbooking store, Scrapbook Workshoppe, is having a boot decorating contest.  It is for charity and the funds raised will go to help families of deployed soldiers.  To qualify for a prize, you have to have at least three Tim Holtz products used on your boot.  I just had to give it a whirl!!!  I chose a regular old cowboy boot and spray painted it white.  I then used distress ink and Maya Mist to color it and my flowers green.  I then cut, painted, inked and glammed up all of the die cuts.  Then finished it off with some ribbon, lace and trimmings!  I haven't decided what its final purpose will be, but I am imagining it will be a fun place to store my heat gun!  If you live locally, I hope you give this challenge a whirl.  If you decide you want to alter a boot of your own, send me a link so I can show pictures to my friends at Scrapbook Workshoppe!

Here are some close-ups:



Thanks for stopping by!
