From the sublime to the ridiculous.

I took a wee break from the monster board to do this...it was for a friend's project, a tiny picture frame. IRL it's kinda cute. I actually used EssDee board. It wasn't bad. I really liked the image (my cat again) I used so I'm going to do a small board like it.

1 inch in diameter...I tried to show actual size with the 1st pic...even this is a bit big.


Looks kinda crappy blown up.

Re: From the sublime to the ridiculous.

Now THAT is an extremely cool challenge! For the record btw, your "crappy" is something most of us aspire to.

Re: From the sublime to the ridiculous.

Thank you everyone for the way too kind comments. I can say with certainty, this is the smallest board I ever scratched!

Re: From the sublime to the ridiculous.

Now I can definitely say you've lost your marbles but at least the cat has found them.

How long did it take you? Excellent stuff!!

Re: From the sublime to the ridiculous.

Now to top that you'll have to scratch your cat on a grain of rice!
I do believe you have just confirmed your insanity.
Great job!
