Hi, all!

A few days ago, I received a pack from Brian (Beefjello) which contained, besides other great stuff, a small agate slab:

Ioana claimed it as she first saw it and today I had time to cab it for her:

I managed to find a pattern that resembles to a hand-written capital "I", which enchanted her even more.

And that's the back-light picture:

Thanks for looking,

Adrian
