Leather cuff.











Here is another cuff I made using Tim Holtz's new alteration die. This one is made from leather that I embossed through the cuttlebug, takes a few rolls but it does emboss, then lightly sand it to really bring the pattern out.
The leather look lace is made from that awful plastic doiley placemats that you can get from Spotlight by the meter. Trim out the pattern that takes your fancy, rub and pounce alcohol ink on the motif until you get the coverage you like, then rub over some rub and buff and you have lace look trim that is not only half the price, but very durable for wearable art. Thanks to the lovely Linda on her lovely comments about my last cuff and if you go to her blog she has a wonderful giveaway. (Linda I pinched your lace idea for behind the cuff too..)LOL
Love Sarah
