Life Finds a Way- Card Holder
Not only is this the first time I’ve carved a human skull, this is the by far my favorite card holder in the bunch! The entire holder was left natural, or undyed, so I could use the Antiquing to really enhance all of the cracks and crevasses. Besides the fungus, my favorite element is the sky. The goal was to highlight a halo around the skull with a mixture of blues and black. On the other side I used a triangle basketweave stamp and lifters to give it an extreme texture.
Designed for a concert goer’s best friend, I created the card holder to hold only the essentials. It can hold up to 5 cards and a small wad of cash!
Dimensions: 3 ⅝” tallest point, to 1 ¾” shortest point, 2 ¾” wide
Each card holder has at least one fully-tooled side, with no specific side being the front or back. Although it starts off very stiff, overtime leather will relax and stretch out with wear.
