While I was at it, I used the opportunity to use up some of my leather scraps and practice some stamping. The stamping did not turn out that well, but I got to make something useful from scraps that was taking up space.

Not your garden variety envelope
Lately I have been doing a lot of financials and bill paying, which I hate doing. So what do I do when I don't want to do something? You guessed it, procrastinate by doing something else. I told myself that I needed to have something to put all my loose receipts in so that they were contained. This leather envelope is what I came up with.

I can't wait to do more of these!

Great idea! Will you add it to your line?
Thanks everyone! I have already cut out a few pieces and may embellish. I am not sure about the stamping unless I use vegetable tanned leather.
