Hi friends –  I’m up in  NY visiting with Mom and my sister. Before I left on Tuesday, I shared my Realeather project(s) for the month. In the livestream, I show how to create FIVE leather ornaments (well 4 1/2 anyway) using the Sizzix 3D Ornaments die and Realeather products. Click on the graphic to watch!

The die has been reduced from $35 to $28! You can find them HERE.
