Thank you! Very glad you like it! Of course it can be kept this simple and smooth, but the whole smooth red back just begs to be carved out! I am thinking of a Dragon Hair stick, carve the dragon up the length, wrap him around the top where the Y/Y is sunk in. Its an idea Cherry Blossoms and branches would be sweet too!
Sharon it dumped on us last night and is snowing again now-we are re-filling the 4 wheeler...ran out the first tank before 10 this morning!

Great job!!
If you fix a paper between the layers with a non strong glue you do not need use any saw for separation.
