I didnt get to photograph it because it was a rush job for a friend of mine for his wife on Valentines day .. But after she got it .. he brought it back for me to show you, guys ..

It's called "I Love You " and it was a rush job for a dear friend of mine .. coming down to the night before Feb 14 .. so things were down to the wire for it ..

The answer is no .. I didnt carve the flower .. I thought the silk one was so much prettier then any I could have carved ..

But anyway .. hope you like it .. it was a lot of fun ..

Wife's .. pay attention to this for next Valentines day .. I know your husbands can do a better job then I can ..

Hey Gene, ya did it again buddy, snuck this one in down here and I nearly missed it. As usual excellent little guy, I'm still able to sit here and hack away, I've completed a couple little items (acceptable, I think) but can't get to paints or where I take photos. Just wanted ya to know I haven't slackened off just yet.

He's just too adorable!! He makes you grin looking at him!


I've tried twice now to do a flat plane fella.. but something in me keeps wanting to 'round' off or put more detail into the project.
