Step 6 Embossing the Cover


I learned this trick in art school.. We had all kinds of ways to fake embossing, from glueing a extra sheet of paper on top to pushing the image in with a spoon.. This leather is so soft it pushes in with the cap from a ball point. I am sure it will look better over time with more pushing and adjustments. But it looks really nice now. There are times I surprise my self.
