Grateful Bird card all leather accents


I made this card as a Thank You for my friend for giving me their leather scraps for card and crafting. I stamped the base card in Old Olive and cut the sentiment, the bird cage and bird from thin pieces of leather using my Big Shot. I am happy to see that the ink took very well to the pieces of leather and stamping also the sentiment was clear.

Please see the video where I take you through the card making process if you like.

Dove mini album

Here is a 4" x 6" mini album which I created by cutting the black 12 x 12 textured card stock into 4 x 6 pieces. You get 6 pages from one piece!


The cover denotes hand made roses I created by using 3/4 satin ribbon.. The dove is cut very a very thin piece of leather, it feels like suede.
The pocket pages are 1 1/2" strips of Stampin Up card stock that I cut with my Tim Holtz Sizzix edge die and inked them. The flower ensemble is made using a Sizzlet die and paper flowers from Michaels and pearls from Stampin' Up.

 
Thanks for viewing and your comments, and here is a video to show you all the details.

4 x 6 leather swirl mini album

I love how this came out! All paper and card stock from Recollection at Michael's.
The swirl on the cover is a Sizzix die that I cut out of very thin leather!!! Inked and added Stampin' Up flat back pearls, all hot glued in place.


The flowers are also from Michael's recollection collection I got in the clearance section. The lace is vintage lace I bought at  a quilt show hot glued to the covers and a piece tied to the Cinch binding.
The charm on the side is three layers of the leather that I die cut, glued, inked and punched a hole with my Crop-A-Dile. Added a couple jump rings to a seed bead necklace I broke down to make the dangle.

The pages are all 4 x 6 double matted and used the labels Cuttlebug embossing and cutting die. They are inked and raised on foam squares.

You can watch the video for more details, thanks for stopping by would love comments.
