Beautiful! I'd seen this before, but hadn't realized how beautiful a design it was. The detail is exquisite. Great finish!

Wow!!! She looks better than the picture on the package! (I've looked at this kit a fair few times). I love the effect of the fabric on her sleeve & dress, gorgeous!

That is gorgeous! Absolutely beautiful! I am at a loss for words!

As for framing, I was at JoAnns yesterday and they were having a framing sale. I know that it was 50-60% off. I believe it was 50% off for one custom frame, 60% for two custom frames. (But don't quote me! :D)
