Wow, the tiger frame is amazing! I love the added shine to it! And I think the white sets off the piece rather nicely. :D

Ooh, your tiger is gorgeous! The white edge on the mat is perfect, it highlights the light/white areas of the tiger... :)

I kept coming back and looking at the framed tiger and I know what the white reminds me of now.

I think having the thin white band round gives it the effect of looking more like a photograph.
I mean it's such a detailed stitch it looks photo like anyway, but the band of white, gives it that look, just like the old photographs.
