that is a really good effect! I made the photo really big for a good look and your sanding is so neat. Yummy colour too!

I’m glad it stood up to your closer look, Gillian! I did nothing special, sanded it over a trash can with a small sanding block. I find that if I put it down on the table, I push too hard, and mess up the embossing.

I think that is why mine always looks like it has been savaged! Good tip, thanks!

Apparently, I tend to be a zealous sander! 😉
