just some stuff i finished today, poor Cher said she was bored of batting penguins and playing Kitty Canon so, here is a grouping (on the infamous plate scale) and some close ups: these are tw 14 x 10 mm brazilian agate cabs in prefab settings (i got from Kingsley North), aka "Christmas Presents On The Hoof": here is a 25mm x 18mm cab of Rainbow Jasper i got from Kim (Rockyraccoon), great stuff to work with... next up, also from Kim, a piece of Rosetta stone, very soft but took a nice polish: and lastly what i believe to be some very colorful pet wood that i don't remember (duh) where i got it from, might have been off eBay (?). the only reason i say it might be pet wood is the overall look of the slab compared to other less colorful slabs of pet wood i have collected. if it isn't pet wood, maybe ome kind of jasper? who knows...all suggestions appreciated! hope you are feeling better Cher, and thanks all for looking!! KD

Oooooo KD you've been holding out on us, those are beautiful and will make great Christmas presents. I love the two Brazilians, you did great on those. That rosetta stone is really pretty, is that something you can't tumble? Thanks for the pics, I've not only killed the kitty a million times and batted penquins forever but have solitaired myself sick! *smile* This is much better to look at!

Very pretty KD, My Jeannine would like to see the back of the Brazilians as she would like to know how it is made.
Thanks for posting this for Cher, the poor thing has it rather tough at the moment...I'm feeling real sorry for her.

I think the Brazilian agate is my favorite. But, as Mr. Burns would say... EEEEXXXELENT!
