@ barbieq25 - Each time I post something new, you're usually the first one to lend words of
praise, encouragement, sage advice or all of the above. I just can't thank you enough for being
there and paying it forward. :star: :coffee:
@ Helen - You just made my week! After reading what you wrote I had a Vector moment (Despicable
Me) shouting, Oh Yeah! Thank you ever so much for the glowing review and for challenging me to
work outside my comfort zone. :star:
@ NMD21 - Thanks for dropping by.
@ dug - No apologies necessary... I am honored you took the time to visit and appreciate your
words of encouragement. Thank you.
@ delpart - Many thanks. My initial intent was to use the same background as my Marble N Wood
piece. Spent more hours than I care to admit trying to get the glass ball and shadow to out shine
all that wood. I was quite pleased with the outcome after coming to the following conclusions.
1.) If it ain't working, you're forcing it.
2.) Sniveling about it dosen't help.
3.) Applying the Keep It Simple Simon method works 99% of the time, with a 1% chance that your
piece will turn out looking like something that came out of the north end of a south bound horse.
