Custom Leather Stamp Queston: Differences In Material?

[handsw]

thanks but if you have seen both the methods I think I will choose the second one (after) because otherwise I can't continue the project until the stamp arrives and because there will not be a a color difference (but I am not sure of that) between the part stamped and the background.

I've messed up a few finished items trying something new so I tend to try things out on scrap if I have the time. Hope to see a picture when its all done!
