You are the first leather earring video I've found which knows how to open a jump ring. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

@veronicaallen2721 4 жыл бұрын

Thank you for explaining how to use a jump ring, the visual of the larger jump ring was perfect! I've been trying to make earrings, but I couldn't figure out how to use the jump ring .

What a great idea to emboss! I’m so glad I saw this before I did anything else. So far I’ve just been cutting my leather and I plan on taking this project with me this summer when I go with my husband on his truck. I’ll have to emboss some before I leave. Thank you so much for sharing your ideas.

Fab earrings & great tute. I do make jewelry & discovered TE about a month ago. I have since purchased several of your dies & so excited about your new Designer Dangles line you just released. I'm about to pop in the shop & purchase the new ones but I remembered your tutorial. Great explanations. I am looking forward to trying the embossing process for my first time. Thank you so much. PS: I love using my Sizzix Big Shot for cutting.

Is there a way to cut them without the holes, in order to make the pinched petal style vs the teardrop style? Thanks!

@TayloredExpressions 4 жыл бұрын

No, the holes are included on the dies.

I love this!! Do these also cut through real leather?

@TayloredExpressions 4 жыл бұрын

No, leather is too thick for our dies. If you can find a super thin one, maybe, but I can't guarantee it.

Sable Kirkland a Sizzix Big Shot die cutting machine

Can these be made without that machine?

@TayloredExpressions 5 жыл бұрын

No, you will need a die-cutting machine to cut out the shapes (nothing else has enough pressure - trust me, when I first started, I tried a list of things with no success.. LOL)

What is the solution you cover the leather with at the 13:25 mark. I am near deaf and I can not make out what you are calling it. It looks tempting to do and is this on your website? Thanks for the video.

Embossing Powder! :)

@@TayloredExpressions Thanks for answering so fast, but that is not what I was actually asking about. You used some on a solution on the leather before you inked it. You saturated it quite a bit. Thanks again

@TayloredExpressions 3 жыл бұрын

@@rblues4u I believe that's the powder tool. It's an anti-static tool that's applied before stamping and embossing so that the embossing powder only sticks to the portions that have been stamped. Does this look like it? www.tayloredexpressions.com/ek-tools-powder-tool-applicator/

@@TayloredExpressions thank you so much for responding. Do you know if your "die cut plates" would work in a school style die cut machine? It's a decent size and thought it would be a good way for me to just get started. I can use it whenever I want. Your thoughts? It is the Accucut school style die cut machine.

Ok, so will all Sizzix die cut machines work with these plates? Like the side kick? I am just trying to be practical before I get too far into it to make sure I can handle it.
