Beautiful job... 1 oz of Glycerin to 4 oz of water... 1 parts to 4 parts... 1 cap full isn't enough unless you want it dryer. I have used 1 part glycerin to 8 parts of water... at 10:45 you didn't have it wet enough... you could have totally submerged it in the glycerin/water combination... it would not have hurt it.
Thanks for this great tutorial. I made a faux leather a while back and used a thick brown bag. It turned out just great too and looked so similar to yours. I love the feel & smell of it. TFS
Maybe it would rub off onto the inside paper a bit. Especially if it’s only been a few days dried. I have some paper I did years ago and nothing comes off
What a fab idea!!Can liquid shoe polish....which comes in a bottle with a sponge..kiwi brand..for suede etc...be also used?would be less messy....thank you!
You were saying not sure who first did this method is was a craft lady called Shenna Douglas, she can be seen on the craft TV programme called Hochanda . She did not use shoe polish tho, she used distress ink.. I have not tried it with card, I have only used what Sheena said which is Kraft Card, but I might try the card like you did as it looks really good.
@@SonyaBatten if you don't want people commenting on your video I think you can turn that off I appreciate your efforts though. I was only saying that you could have made the video shorter then it would have been more interesting to watch.

My friend, the silver bit on the side of the shoe polish can is to open it. Just twist it and the lid will open up.
Haha yes I know this but totally forgot under pressure of filming 🤭
If you use the solid core cardstock you won't get the white spots or tears. The color goes all the way through and it looks like real leather.
Great tutorial , thank you. just a little tip lol that little metal catch on the side of the tin, you just twist it and the lid will pop off.

I haven't seen this done before. Great idea!
Thank you, I am going to try this... Linda L , She is right, the little tab on side twist it and the can will open.
LOVE, LOVE THIS IDEA. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS GREAT TUTORIAL.
Thanks! Just takes a while to fully dry, or you can get a heat gun onto it.
New subscriber here...loved your tutorial...I'm definitely going to try this method...thank you for sharing...Hugs from Arizona USA
New subscriber, I really enjoyed your tutorial as you were so clear with all your instructions! Thank you for sharing!
You are welcome!
If you have no glycerine then a hair condition will work as well. It has the same chemical and relaxes the fibres.
Will it rub off even after it’s dried? Like if i did it to the inside of the book cover, would it rub off onto the papers inside?

The silver wing nut thing on side of shoe polish can is there to open it just twist
I am definitely going to give this a try. TFS!!

No I don’t think so that is too watery and not ‘waxy’ enough
@@SonyaBatten thk u for answering my query！

Won't this card leather rip when sewed? It is paper after all.

if you rub the glycerine and water in with a cloth then you wont get the little white spots and holes
Thanks and I love this. Definitely subscribed and hope to enjoy your technique in my “Scarlet Ribbon Studio”
