Looks good. All the symbolism makes it special. The rose is nice. The stamp you used for the border is good. Nice work.

The only thing I would do differently on the border is to cut it with a swivel knife and bevel that before doing any stamping. That defines the space and keeps things even.

 

I agree.  The stamp that I used was interesting, but I had a heck of a time keeping my line straight.  Cutting a couple lines with a swivel knife first would have helped a lot.  It actually bothered me enough that I went and did another one for him, but used a rope boarder instead:

There were still a couple problems with it, but I think it looked a lot better.

Yes, really good job. I recently wrote an article about the most popular coffee for my site and would like to insert your pictures for a more attractive effect. Do you mind if I copy these images with a link to this forum for my article?

Thanks.  I don't have a problem with you using the images.  I guess the forum admins will have to weigh in as to if they want you to include a link back here.

That rope border really made a difference. The green and red on the rose is also a nice addition. Very nice looking. He should be pleased with it.
