About a month back I stumbled across this post from Linda at Craftaholics Anonymous , a handmade gift exchange!

I thought it would be a lot of fun to participate in, and jumped on board.
(Google+ is good for some things. Like having so few people use it, that you actually get to see some of the things posted that aren’t all jumbled together on Facebook – HA!).
I had so much fun trying to come up with something for that special person that was picked for me to give a gift to. Getting their Pinterest board information so I could see their personal style. And just finding out more about someone else that I may not have ever come to know!
With a yen for working with leather, I decided upon a scalloped leather clutch…
This little piece can be used as a business card holder, credit card holder, mini wallet, or even a gift card holder. Or you can make one larger to use as a full size clutch!
Wanting to work more with the leather and see how I could play with it, I added a fun scalloped trim to the envelope front…
I love the way it turned out, and I hope my giftee does to!
Want to make one of your own? Here’s how…
And there you have it! It wasn’t that hard to make, I would say the biggest thing was getting the needle through some of the many pieces of leather. And just by pushing the end down on a hard sturdy surface, it would slip right on through.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and until next time…
Happy Sewing!
