Creative Belt Stamping is a pattern and instruction pack featuring ten original belt designs created by the late Paul Burnett. Developed as part of the Learning Leather Looseleaf Lessons series, this collection focuses on repeatable stamping layouts for 1-1/2 inch belts, combining structured design with practical tooling instruction.

Each design is presented with both layout guidance and tooling sequences, helping leatherworkers understand not just where to place impressions, but how to build rhythm, spacing, and consistency across a full belt length. The included tips cover everything from layout and spacing to coloring and finishing techniques, making this a useful reference for both learning and execution. The ten designs range from approachable patterns to more complex “challenge” layouts, offering room to grow within a single collection.

These patterns are made available in partnership with the family of the late Paul Burnett. Each purchase financially contributes to his family while helping share his work with a new generation of leatherworkers, ensuring that his teaching and artistic legacy remain accessible.
