Finished!!!



Close up:




The flash is fading the colour out but I wanted to show you guys! What do you think of the finish? The ribbon says "sit long talk much laugh often". The buttons and charms are various ones I've collected. But two of the buttons are from my gran's collection, my mums mum. I though it was a nice touch.

Well done on a super fast finish and beautiful presentation. The ribbon around the edge is just perfect and it is a lovely touch adding your gran's buttons. If I was your mum I would be so moved by such a special present.

What a brilliant finish - that ribbon matches the sentiment of the piece so well and the charms and buttons add a very personal touch!

I've only just seen this thread and it is fantastic. I love the way you have finished it as well. Your mum is going to be delighted. I see a lot of Lizzie Kate designs on here. Think I might have to go and investigate.!
