Hi, leathercraft folks! This is Hahn.
I made a super simple and easy minimalist cardholder
[Material & Thickness]
Leather : Buttero / Dakota Vegetable Tanned Leather (Italy) Thickness : 1.8t / 1.5t ( 5oz/ 4oz)

I used thick paper for the leather pattern.
Print as actual size then, paste to thicker paper.
Cutting the Leather and Edge Creasing



Cut the leather follow the pattern, then crease and bevel the edge line
Dying Edges


I used edge finisher and sponge
Applying Leather Gum




I used Tokonole(Leather gum) and used wood slicker for burnishing edge
Paste Card Slot





Mark with an awl on the base leather panel.
then glue and paste the card slot panel.
Assemble Whole Parts




Before assembling, dye the back side of the leather.
Cutting , Stitching and Burnishing





Cut the base panel then stitching .
+ beveling, dying, burnishing process again.
and It's done already.
