Heres a wonderful piece of Japanese Embroidery that just screamed for simple.

Hey, now there are some neat silver and gold heavier threads and flosses that are used for tying flies......Yah, I do that too.Originally posted by elsa:
I have never thought of doing that! What a cool idea--I am doing a certificate for a friend, I purchased a black leather mat and a lovely deep blue silk and have been playing with ideas on how to add a bit of silver--because the cert. has a silver seal. Didn't really want to add a third mat for cost reasons and size. humm...I get to play!!

You could also try a thin silver ribbon. I love adding ribbons to mats.Originally posted by elsa:

Paul, I would love to see what you have.
FYI, From what I was told, the next PPFA print competition is going to be an Oriental design from Chris Pascke (sp?).
I completely agree, not only is it contrived, but it just gets old after a while.Originally posted by Pamela DeSimone, CPF:
Not the right word, is it? I had to look it up, because what I thought it meant wasn't right. I did mean it in a bad way. Like the person who designed it had no imagination.
I'm not seeing the light blue.
