I am not a shoe girl in real life, it is 'Dawgs' and 'Crocks' for me. However that does not mean that I don't know a great shoe when I see it. Even I would be tempted to buy these if they came in a larger size left and right. To see other samples of this shoe colored, visit me at fairyrocks.blogspot.com
Stamp your image using Lindy's Embossing powder with a watermark ink. Then color with copic markers. For this Shoe I used Copic Markers:
Y15-YR23-R46-R24-R43-V25-00blender
Hint: I test on the scrap side of my image as I go, to see what color combination I like best.
I used glossy accents on the clock face, after that was dry I carefully cut the shoe and tags out.
Cut complimentary color card stock for a card background. For the purpose of illustration, These photos do not show the Prima Mask inked with Fire Brick Red Distress ink. Cut a center piece for your card out of contrasting paper. Next cut about a 1/4" inside border, leave the lower edge attached. Lay your shoe image over where you will attach your tabs. Mark and cut strategic strips to fold and glue your image to the card. Prefit your image and cut strips so you can mount your shoe. Note the free standing center mount should be mounted to your image first and dry fitted so you know where to glue it to the card. A few careful folds and you can have a pop forward shoe. Note: Ink a background before you attach your shoe image.

This is a side view your first fold will be even with the lower edge of your card. The second determines how far you want it to pop. The remaining tab will be attached to your image. Note center tab attaches to your shoe image first. Always do a dry fit or temporary tack before you glue permanently. You could also use Wobbles or Glue Dots.

Decorate with whatever bits you have on hand. Cut your words out separately and mount on strips. Tuck behind the shoe top. I used a chipboard wing on the heel cuff, as well as bingo bits and findings from Tim Holtz. See the latest Prima bits, they are wonderful.
Because there is still a little Dorothy in me, I say "Forget a 'Red Hatter's Club', I need 'Red Shoes' !!"
