To make paper that looks like crushed leather, you need

• Brown paper bags, with a flat section as big as you want your paper to be
• Irish breakfast tea-about 10 bags
• Paintbrush
  
• An iron and ironing board
• Cloth you don't mind getting stained with tea
  
• Gloss mod podge
• Cardstock as big as your piece of paper
• Rolling pin
• Flat pan as big as your paper
  

How to make it: First, steep the tea. Use 10 bags and enough boiling water to make the pan about an inch full. While you're waiting, cut out your paper. In ten minutes or so, take the tea bags out of the pan(squeezing them first) and put the paper in. Wait another ten minutes.  I suggest you read Harry Potter in this time. Now crush the wet paper in your hand over and over, making sure there are lots of tiny wrinkles. Don't tear it. Put it on a flat surface and crinkle it again, then crease the folds with the rolling pin. Then you can iron it. Put a piece of cloth under and over it, and crumple it up again. Iron it while crumpled up. Then iron it while flat, but iron the wrinkles in, not out. Work it like that until you're happy with the number of wrinkles. Now flatten it with your hands. Brush on a thin layer of mod podge, and wait for it to dry. Then glue the card onto the back with mod podge. It's finished!
