:applesauce: :applesauce: The colors really give this one character! I think there must be something wrong with me because whenever I see your updates on this, it brings a smile to my face. Really, its a skull and shouldn't be cheerful, but it is. Looking forward to the next update!

What a fun colorful project!!!

We should all embrace the beauty of the skull, after all, we all have one and it provides us with a very important function :lol:

Yep!

And I think I just figured out why this one makes me smile...it reminds me of Geoff on the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. Geoff is very funny...what? He's not real? Shame on you for suggesting such a thing. :-)

I absolutely love love love this. My son would flip over this one as well but I would have to change the colours a bit. I don't think he would like all the pretty pastels. This definitely makes me want to stitch one up for him.
