The background print on this one has a story… 

The print on the boot reminded me of a print I designed for the former day job. (I have a confession: when the company moved office, I took home most of my library of design printouts because they were going to trash them). So I tore through the closet where I keep the binders and couldn’t find the art! Argh! Then I remembered that I also copied all my design work onto an external hard drive when we were sent home for covid. Success! 

Created in 2007. 18 tears ago! What?????

Putting the binders back in the closet? Not as successful, yet. I keep tripping over them.

Another customer request!
I debated whether to find a different D shoe, as I have personal trauma from the artist Salvador Dali.

(That story is for later).

But guess what, the shoe is cute, has fun design elements, and I will put aside my lingering issue with Senior Dali.
