Stamping On Leather

Today I tried something a little different. Still stamping related but on a new surface. I've had these pouch kits for some time now and wanted to decorate them. Since I'm not good at free hand painting, I really didn't know what to do with them. Today I was cleaning out my craft room and they fell into my hands again. This time I thought why not stamp on them? I was scared of messing them up at first, but I really like how they turned out. 

With the first one I started slow by just using the Celebrate Sunflower. I used the Stampin Blends in Daffodil Delight and Old Olive to color them. 

Than I got a little braver and tried a little bigger image. I went with the Ornate Style stamp set. This time I sponged the bag with a little color to give it a different look. I also added some sparkles. Doesn't it look like one of those western purses.  

For the third one I went with the Free As A Bird stamp set, but wasn't really happy with it because the image wasn't big enough. So I just added the flower from the same stamp set. Problem solved!

Since I loved how that little flower turned out, I decided to make another one with just the flower. This one I wanted to look a little more worn. So I used some acrylic paint and thinned it down with water and just sponged the entire purse. 

This actually turned out to be my daughters favorite and she snatched right away.
