This was done in Inkscape. Here's a copy with black outline. You need the SVG file if you want to change it yourself but this forum doesn't allow that file type. I can email it if you want.

Yes I would love to get the file, Thanks Ray!    I need to start to learn to fish!   "Teach a man to fish..."

Do you still have my Email?

Thanks again!

Ray,

A Huge Thank You to you and everyone that helped with this project.   You really helped to give my Uncle a great gift in his time of grief!

Attached isn't the best picture of the finished project but it was the best I could do with a gimp camera and bad lighting.

I stack cut 2, one was attached to the box of ashes they buried on Saturday, and the other I framed to give to my uncle.  He said to tell you that you did a wonderful job on the conversion and he especially loved what you did with her hair!

Thank you so much!

Walter

You did a great job. I like the roses at the bottom - my art teacher says if you want a piece to stand out, add a little red to it.

I'm happy to hear that your uncle liked it.

The roses were a must.

Even in his 80's my uncle kept a rose garden and every day he would go out and cut a rose for her.  She loved them, and he loved her.
