Hi, everyone! Cat Kerr here! Glad to be back to share another tutorial!
I've been obsessed with leather lately. I've been working on
wallets and book covers and even jewelry. I've been cutting and
shaping and stitching and dying it. I've also been painting it, which
is what originally led me to start thinking of leather as not only a workable
material which can be cut, stitched and dyed but also as a possible
substrate that can be embossed, stamped, and you guessed it...stenciled.
Today I'm making a simple leather cuff, but honestly, there's
nothing simple about it. What I mean is that my video shows you how to add
design to leather using one application, but there is
so much more design possibility here. The cuff part will always be created the
same way and with StencilGirl® Products’
store full of amazing
stencils to choose from, well... there's no limit to the design
opportunity! Plus, keep in mind that leather paint works almost the same way as
acrylic paint (it doesn't crack when you bend it, which is great for
cuffs). That means you can end up creating a work of art...for your wrist. How
cool is that!
