A new tie and a pair of slippers

Hi I really hope you will like this card :)  It uses 'all tied up' a tatty teddy stamp that I fell in love with for my children's fathers day craft class.  I have stamped him in chocolate chip and coloured him using the belnder brush~ (this is for you Buffy).. I really think he looks great.  We used a variety of stampin up ribbons cut and knotted to look like ties.  My sister in law has even used some diamond patterned ribbon to cut out socks!  The card is white confetti card sponged round the edges with our distress ink 'tea stain', the punch used for the bottom of the furniture was the curly label extra large.
... and we made these fantastic slippers too!  Inside each one is a chocolate surprise.  I cannot take credit for the idea, I found it whilst blog hopping here, I just thought it was a brilliant use for the pillow box die that we have in the mini catalogue.  I have used regal series paper, stampin up buttons and twill tape to decorate.  You can purchase the pattern from the web site but I cut mine by eye!... they are joined together with certainly celery ribbon. 
Do have a go, it's a brilliant idea.. you could make them for anyone if you used different papers and sparkly or girlie decorations.  Let me know what you think, I would love to see your comments x x

  2. I bought the template for the Pillow box slippers and mine certainly didn't look as good as yours! I love the little dresser and the ties hanging out of the drawers. Totally awesome and completely gorgeous. Thanks for sharing them. x
