RE: [flasah] Oak Leaf

 

Dale, that's how you get practice, and experience. Also, if you haven't sealed it yet, you
could do a bit more backgrounding to even it out. If possible, you could do a resist stain
on the leaves and branches and leave the background dark to cover the stain...Hank

I probably should have waited until I had practiced a little more before
I did it, but I did that Oak Leaf pattern on a wallet back. The
photocarve didn't call for a background tool, but I used one anyway to
cover up some mistakes... unfortunately I couldn't cover 'em all up.
I'll probably dye all the background and the outer areas just to cover
up the discoloration in one corner (which didn't show up until I cased
the leather with hot water).

Without any lace, I've been thinking about stitching it, but I'm afraid
those holes are just too big for stitching.
