Polymer Clay Faux Leather

Tooled Leather? No, it's polymer clay, what else? I had such a good time experimenting with this technique. I got to use my leather stamping tools so that was fun.
Some deep texture patterns and
one or two of my own designs.
I'm about halfway done with the buttons. Really taking a lot more time than I had anticipated.

Love your Faux Leather, Marlene! And I love the textures and carvings. You will have to demo this for the guild. How about sending it in to the Polymer Cafe again!

Thanks Lupe! I would love to demo it for the guild-I will sign up on the 20th. I think I will have an article in the next issue of Polymer Cafe' on a couple of teapots, but we'll see. Fingers crossed. - Marlene
