So, I've been meaning to redo this wrap for a while now, I hated the first bail and the cab has been sitting on my desk for a while staring at me. It's one of my first cabs and a very early wrap from some material that I got in the Traveling Rock Box a long time ago. It came from hummingbirdstones and hummingbirdstones2. The same material that they just sold some boxes of. In fact, that's what inspired me to get off my butt and do it! Hopefully the do-over looks better, thanks for looking!

Nicely done on the redo, Mike! The new version looks so nice and clean and lets the patterns in the rock stand out more.

Since I haven't figured out how to put all responses in one quote yet, thank you for the nice comments, everyone!  I also like the redo on the wrap my friend! Okay...to the right of the "like" button (the thumbs up), there's a circle thingy with a downward arrow. Click on that. It'll bring up a drop down menu. Click on "Select Post". Do this for each person you want to quote. Once you get each of the posts selected that you want, go to the bottom of the page and click on "Reply" (Not Post Quick Reply). This will take you to the "Create Post" page, where it'll have everyone's quote listed. Just make sure you type your reply outside (below) the box that has the person's quote in it. Easy-peasy! |

Thanks Jason, I like it better, also. The bail on the old one was wrapped- which is ok- but it was way too small in my opionion.
Yeah, that seems pretty easy- even for an old man like me...   |

I like the new wrap, good work. The cab really stands out to me and really surprised how much it resembles some flowers or a piece of fine art. Never really expected that so I'll be paying more attention to St. John's from now on.

Yep, miket, that was a nice little slice of St Johns. It looks even better now in that new wrap.
I like the way the wrap just blends into the sides of the stone, and the new bail is a very nice touch.
