I used a sketch for this and a new die that arrived in the mail yesterday - the gumboot.

    Beautiful card. It would make a lovely Mother's Day card.

    I have never heard of the term "gumboot" before. I love that. [Bunny]

    Hi Bunny. I don't know what you call them in USA; I know they are Wellington Boots in UK (presumably after the famous Duke of Wellington), we just call them gumboots here in NZ. I don't know the origin, but probably early settlers smeared their boots in gum to make them waterproof??
