Patterns for carving or stamping

[Frodo]

I found a color by numbers site on my phone.  And noticed a lot of the patterns would make some really nice leather patterns

the site name is Zen Color. I think posting the link would be considered spam so you will have to look it up by name

here is one of the patterns

We have here 'adult' coloring books. 'Adult' as in grown-up, not as in the naughty sense. They are meant to help with mental health and well being.

They have some cool deigns in them which I've thought would do well on leather. And there are some coloring books meant for children which have great designs. An example; I have a childrens coloring book with the pages of the Book of Kells as color-in artwork

edit; I went looking for my 'Book of Kells' coloring book and remembered I'd given it away

Hundreds on the Shelf at Walmart if you are looking for the paper type

if you are talking about digital  I have not looked so I have not seen anY

Do you want me to pick up some from Walmart for you?

the postage should not be expensive , because they would be considered educational

Very kind of you to offer but we have lots and lots in our versions of Wally World, called ASDA and Tesco

When they say "Never do anything that you can't undo" ... I don't think this is what was intended!

Seriously tho, that sux.   But welcome back, and thanks for the suggestion!

Over the years, I've picked up a number of "coloring books" to use as tooling patterns.  If the size isn't quite what I'm looking for, I've got a scanner/printer/copier that I can use to scan and re-size to fit the space needed.  For somebody like me that can barely manage a line with a ruler and pencil, these things are just great!!

@Frodo, sorry about your truck. How did that happen?

Those books all have such charming and cheerful designs. There are books with undersea and mountain sceneries as well, which are beautiful. 

The mandalas are very complicated though, the first one you have shown here @Frodo.
