"Fake Leather" ATC

International swap, open to newbies, who have a delightfully filled out profile!

Did you know?

If you crumple up a brown paper bag, spray it with water, and then iron it, it will look like leather? And if you do it several times, it becomes as pliable and wrinkly as the real stuff!

I know, we already have "pleather" -- that fake combo of leather and plastic...

So, what would we call THIS? "BEATHER!" Because it's lots cheaper, and yes, BEATHER than the other fake stuff, because you make it yourself!

What an awfully great idea!

DETAILS: You will have TWO partners. (For you newbies, that means you'll get TWO ratings!)

Make TWO ATCs, profound little things, by using only "BEATHER!", mounted on a stiff backing, (a cut-up cereal box works great!) then send ONE of them to each of your swap partners.

Attach your BEATHER to the backing, and decorate from there, to your heart's delight! You can color pieces, to use on your ATC, but let's not be critical with what your swap partner creates and sends you. This might be a brand new craft for that person, and the MOST important part of this swap, is that it be FUN!

(And It's just possible, that we've invented a new word!!)

Decorating the ATC can be using whatever technique you choose, hopefully with smaller pieces of BEATHER! This is completely Sender's choice!

Three weeks until swap closes, then another three weeks to send them.

And most important, have FUN with them.

Also,, please do not try to pass them off as genuine leather! I assume NO responsibility! 😀
