Leatherette Earrings | Silhouette Leatherette Sheets

Well, this week we are focusing on St David’s day and using Leatherette Sheets.

So I decided to make some earrings using a Celtic design.

I opened a letter sized design space and added my design, I had chosen a Celtic design which I thought would transfer beautifully to earrings.

I then resized it to 2ins tall.

I un-grouped the design and removed the intricate design, leaving the solid one, duplicated this and cut from black leatherette

I duplicated the intricate shape.

Initially, I had intended to cut the intricate shape from rose gold leatherette but it was to intricate to do so.

I then decided to cut it from metallic red vinyl.

It took a little time to weed the vinyl but once I had done so it was really easy to add to the leatherette and it adhered really well.

I also made a display stand for my earrings as I thought they looked so pretty and deserved to be shown off to their full potential.
