Maybe it is just because your trial border does too, but when I cover the orange with my hand, I keep wanting to move that triangle, or maybe trade it with the one on the right side. Keep fiddling. You are doing well with these!Elsie Montgomeryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13739927333538419518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18204679.post-90555762534104348632009-04-07T06:09:00.000-07:002009-04-07T06:09:00.000-07:00That first one is perfect.

For the eraser carving, see if you can find linoleum block cutters those will work, as long as they're sharp.

There is even one of these tools in small manicure sets -- think removing cuticles.

In my humble opinion the yellow takes away from the white which stands out with the black and solid border! It's strikingly beautiful.Lynn Cohenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12094038275377357886noreply@blogger.com
