Fay Prozora Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 I'm trying to figure out a nice color background for my woodpecker fret work that I did. Some one had thought a bark or some thing of such would look nice. They have some bark like fabric at Joanns so I might look there and get a piece if it looks good. Any way, if this was your, what would you chose? Here are a few pictures to get an idea... Have a great day Fay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heppnerguy Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 I personally like black for most scrolling projects because it usually stands out the best, but this one would be nice to do with different background. I am just going to wait and see what you choose.. will check back to view it Dick heppnerguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Johnson Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 Good day Fay Very nice cutting. I prefer the black background. As for adding some natural effect around edges and as a suggestion you could glue on pieces of fungus which is available in the forest and grows at the base of trees. I've used it on a few of my projects. The fungus is like bark and very fine grass intertwined. Good thing is it's free and natural. There are other possibilities as well which I'm sure others will post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fay Prozora Posted February 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 Going to look at other colors, maybe even some colors of woodpeckers to see the colors are on the bird and see if I can tape together some color paper to see how it would look. I might decide to use some resin to make it like a stained glass thing. Have a great day Fay amazingkevin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
