Hello~ Ashley has a great video on how to use brown cardstock and make it look like faux leather. I was hesitant to try it because I didn't have any glycerin so I didn't know if the technique would work but it did and I love the results!
I was hoping the opportunity would arise for me to use the new Kind Of Corny set. I LOVE it!! (insert singing voice here) I got a bit impatient for my leather to dry so I ended up using a flat iron on it. Worked like a charm!
Look how awesome that "leather" looks! I added just a bit of Gathered Twigs distress Ink to bring out the wrinkles. I used the same sentiment from Year Of Psalms August that Ashley used because it is just perfect with the corn.
I've been enjoying seeing some amazing projects out there and have tried to keep up with commenting but time has gotten the best of me and all I can say is YOU ARE ALL WINNERS in my book!
If you've taken the time to stop in and visit and left me a comment, I thank you so much. Your thoughtfulness means more than you know. It's a busy time for all of us who are trying to keep up.
See you at the InLinkz! Blessings ~ Birgit

Wow, love your card Birgit and you've certainly mastered the leather look!
Love how you colored the kernels on the corn although I'm not sure how you did it. Beautiful fall card.
Amazing card design! Thanks for participating in SAF!
This is so gorgeous! I love the leather look. You nailed it. Perfect for autumn.
Love the way your pretty golden yellow indian corn pops off of the chocolatey background!!
Very cool, looks just like leather, love your corn with it!
Gorgeous card - love the leather look paired with your fall stamp/sentiment! Perfect!
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL card Birgit! I love that sentiment from the Psalms and how perfect it is with the corn and leather background! I didn't have any glycerin either, but love how the background turned out and will definitely have to remember this one as it's so perfect for masculine cards!
Your leather look is fabulous, Birgit! Great stamps used for this technique also.
