Trying out the Faux Leather Technique with Masking Tape

G'day,
I found this fabulous idea on SCS and have wanted to have a try at it. My Upline Wendy actually held a project night for fathers day and created these wallets, so i wanted to have a go at making one with the Faux Leather Technique with masking tape.
I really love how it turned out and actually plan to make another for a friends birthday card this week. I will post pictures of it when i have completed it, im really eager to see what everone thinks of them.
Happy crafting eveyone!!
