How To Stamp Leather:
     The leather that has to be used for stamping and carving is called tooling leather, vegetable tanned leather, bark tanned leather or carving leather.  This type of leather is an undyed firm leather that is a natural pinkish type color as shown with ths stampings above.  These leathers will retain the stamp image but other leathers such as garment leather and soft bag leathers are chrome tanned and will not take the stamped image.  All stamping is done before the leather is dyed.
     First you need to dampen the top surface only of the leather with a damp sponge of water.  The leather is ready to be stamped when the water darkens the leather.  When the color starts to lighten, you will have to dampen the leather again with more water.  Don't add so much water that there are pools of it sitting on the surface.  It should all be absorbed into the leather.
