Leather and Lace bag

I have enjoyed making this bag so much!
I love the soft feel of the leather, and combined with the lace and crochet, well, I just had to indulge.

This bag can be found on my Etsy site.

Small leather journal

I have been following Shirley’s Three Part tutorial for making/binding a journal – she has a wonderful website that you might like to take a look at. Super instructions! Thank you, Shirley.
I made a small book using a variety of papers – scrap and watercolor leftovers, with a leather cover. The ornament is made with cardboard and metal pieces glued to a drink coaster, covered with aluminum tape, and painted with Lumieres.

You can see my end-papers here, first time for me!
