Ben's B'day Exchange

Way back in December, Ben gave me one of the coolest b'day presents ever: 2 frames. One of them for me to keep, the other for me to make pretty and then give back to him.

Ben's picture looks like this:


Kind of creepy, also awesome.

I finished mine up and gave it to him in February, and it looks like this:


He used sheet music for "If You're Going to San Francisco" as his backdrop and he gave me a Key to Dicotyledons to make my art on. I added some dried flower petals, to go along with the flower theme. I think it worked out quite nicely.

Thanks Ben! Birthday presents that not only encourage, but FORCE the recipient to make things are the very best.
