rosiart Report post Posted November 26, 2012 I have been contemplating this for a while and finally got it done. This was a first for me to use the Copic markers for colouring the flowers and leaves. It was a learning experience as they behave a lot differently on leather than on smooth cardstock. I used the brown hilite to pull the colours together.

Genyfer, the hardest thing I found was that I didn't have the same blending capabilities with the leather as with the smooth cardstocks. I ended up using a lot more of the lighter colours than I would have normally. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beaverslayer Report post Posted November 27, 2012 rosiart, very nicely done, it looks real good. Another thing you can use is Sharpies and Pentel also makes some very good colored markers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks Beaverslayer. I will have to try the others some time . For a previous hobby I acquired a lot of Copics so I'm just glad to have another use for them.

immiketoo Report post Posted November 27, 2012 Looks good. The only critique is the stem work looks a little uneven. The color helps hide it and no one but a fellow carver would notice it, but I thought I'd point it out. I really love the combination of the veg and chrome tanned leathers, and your background really ties in well with the rest of the purse. How about some pics of the inside?

rosiart Report post Posted November 27, 2012 Well, there isn't much to see as I lined it. This fabric is probably a mistake as it is a cotton, but I liked the print and can always replace it when it wears out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
