How to decorate the shoes:

Step 1

Cut leaf shapes out of the Cricut iron on, or select leaf shapes in Cricut Design Space™ and cut using your Cricut machine. Remember your design will need to be mirrored. If using a machine, use a Weeder Tool to remove the negative pieces of iron-on so just your design remains on the clear liner.
