Crackle Paste and Pleather Scraps
Last Friday, I went to Britex with two of my lovelies. I was in search of some inspiration. I ended up raiding the pleather scrap box. Here’s most of what I bought: And here are two works I’ve had in progress since last weekend. In the one on the left, I tried using crackle paste. […]
