Do You Stamp Before You Dye?

Recommended Posts

Or doesn't it make any difference. Or maybe it makes a difference if there are different kinds of applications like if a person is going to blacken the lines of the stamped leather.

I always stamp before I dye.

Dying the leather will affect how well it absorbs water for the casing stage, so typically you will get better results by stamping first.

You should never dye/stain first; all carving & tooling/stamping must be done before anything else to ensure the fullest result from your tools.
