Thanks for the responses everybody, I realize it was a very broad question. I got anxious last night to start and had no scrap to practice on so I just went in swinging. It didn't come out great but I'm happy with it for my first attempt at really anything artistic other than music.

Hello everyone, I'm brand new to leathercraft and to this site so I hope you'll be patient with me. I'm designing a tooling template for a leather journal, I know how I want it to look, but I'm unsure which stamps to use to produce the image. I have a swivel knife, camouflage, beveler, pear shader, veiner, seeder, and background tool. I've attached my design so far, I know what I want to do with the outermost border; it's the compass rose that I'm unsure of. I'd greatly appreciate any tips or suggestions. Panel 1 is the outside cover, panel 2 is the back of the journal, and panel 3 is the inside flap
