I made this card for the technique lovers challenge to make faux suede. It was super easy. You break the fibers of the cardstock down and then peel the layers apart. I found it worked best with smaller panels. I kept hearing "Don't you step on my blue suede shoes..." when I was reading about this technique, so I had to do blue suede. I also made two little panels of brown suede. I added paper leaves. I stamped flourishes in blue ink on the base of the card and made faux buttons that I tied twine to.
