Ambassador Luke Hatley Posted April 2, 2009 Ambassador Report Posted April 2, 2009 Nice looking cover, He must be a special Brother Inlaw to receive so much Leather tooling. Looking at the Deer and the Cougar brought back many fond memorys, the first Leather Craft Class i took was by Paul Burnett and we did the Deer being attacked by the Cougar. Quote Luke

Hi, I think the deer might be AS? I found it on a doodle page and it fitted well, brother inlaw loves to hunt deer, (I think mother nature should do the deed so this is my way of saying so *LOL*) I'm making these covers for the male part of the family (girls gets purses) I have to leave some meories when moving back over seas to people here that I love Thanks Ed, well boo boo being not to seal the leather correctly before applying antique on the fall picture, it's very obvious on the field mouse and the background behind him IRL...And I like the idea that's no one is perfect, makes everything much more "humain" Edited April 2, 2009 by Tina Quote "He who works with his hands is a laborer.

I really like your color. You did a fantastic job coloring the piece. What products and procedure did you use for coloring the dayplanner? Again great job. Doug Hi Doug. I'm using Angelus spirit dyes (and load of reducers to get manny more shades) Then I use neatfoot oil and let it be for at least 24 hours. Now I have Angelus acryllic finish (comes in matte, satin, gloss or high gloss) and again let it be for another 24 hours. Ontop this one I have the old Tandy medium brown antique, I'm using the few drops left, wish I could get some more and last a top coat of finish again to secure the antiquing. I hope this helps but I have seen other methods used as well, I guess we all get our "little thing" going after a while *LOL* Quote "He who works with his hands is a laborer.
