Fashionista Friday #7, BLING IT ON!

OMG! We are shocked here at the Shoe! For the first time ever, we had NO entries last week! I suppose that means, no Shoe of the week! *sigh* well...life goes on and there is more scrapping to do, so we will move on to a new week! Maybe this one will be more appealing to y'all! This weeks challenge is a popular one I believe.....BLING! Yes, as simple as that, add BLING to your project, make it sparkle!! The more sparkle the better!!! Check our our shiny samples:
