This should be your FIRST laser. And LOTS more patterns!
This is my latest full set of designs for real no-stitch leather bags! 7 total, including 3 Clutches, and Envelope design, and 3 Coin Purse / Card Wallets! For the first time I am giving away 4 of these designs on my Facebook group! Please answer yes to the two entry questions to get access! Link is here!
groups/1492933021606126/
Special thanks to the WeCreat team for sending me such a cool laser to try out. I had a blast with it. If you want to buy one, I get a small fee. Here is my link:
shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=2344057&u=4190296&m=142145&urllink=&afftrack=
Everything can be found on my Etsy Store. I am offering each design for a "reasonably" low price, but if you are going to buy 2, you may as well grab the value pack with all three clutch designs (and all the others) for about the same price. This just makes it easier and less expensive if someone just wants one of the patterns. My Etsy link is here:
thisishowimadeit.etsy.com
I mention Build Dad Build and his great video on using this laser on mugs. His link is here:
ua-cam.com/video/PtjIhLABhdk/v-deo.htmlsi=BjaKp1Lv5Ma5QdGT
If you found his video more helpful than mine, he has a code for a discount in the description there as well! More than fine by me!
If you make these designs, please tag me on social media! I would love to see what you make, and share it! Please like, comment and subscribe! I am happy to answer any questions!!!
If you are making this on a Cricut Maker, please watch this more in depth video:

In this video I am going to use the laser to create a cover / mounting plate, to replace an older very expensive doorbell, with a new easy to use Ring Doorbell.

    when turning at corners, do not use a diamond punch, but use an ordinary awl by stretching a simple hole. Also do not use a die-cut punch, make a hole in the corner only with an awl. in this case, after the sewing, the rotation will look more neat.

    Love your video. I work with leather. Your creativity is absolutely on point! Can't wait to use your patterns. Thank you for trying out the We Create laser. I have a Cricuit Maker but it is a bit slow in cutting and tooling real leather. This laser may be a game changer for me. Did you have to case the leather before tooling it in the laser like you do for the Cricuit? I look forward to more of your videos. Thank you for sharing.

    Seeing you do a lot of spraying your dyes, could you offer tips on the process such as thinning cleanup in one of your next videos? I got the sprayer as you have not yet taken the time to experiment with it. Thanks, I just completed the small today. Magnetic snaps did not seem to hold well for me so I drilled it out and put it in a Loxx.
