Your Opinions Please
« on: January 20, 2013, 06:45:31 am »
This is the result of my last three days work (I'm not a fast cutter and need to stop quite often and walk about due to leg problems) Which colour of backer do you think looks best? I like the black one, but thought I would try the green one as one of these is for a friend in Ireland. all opinions and criticism welcomed.

I am not going to be much help because they both are stunning! Either one is just beautiful!  Being that they are Irish and the plaque represents Ireland however, I suggest going with the green.  You aren't going to lose either way though. Truly beautiful!

I like them both.  I believe you could put many different colors behind that cutting and it would still look great. The back does not detract form the excellent cutting

Lovely looking work, and another vote for the green.  Well done.
