Literal Writer's Block: Sherlock BBC edition

Just what it says on the tin.


Thumbnail:






Did this on a 1" solid wood block.





Been a while since I did one of these. This time around, I had fun experimenting with something other than decoupage (my usual method). It also meant that without paper edges I could sand the finished block all the way to 2000 grit, so it feels wonderfully smooth.

Credit where it's due: For the little icons I started with clip art from public domain sources, then modified them. Except the last one, which is mine.





And finally...





ETA: Block #2 and ordering info

You really have a way with paper!
I want one of you to come teach me to do that wonderful paper cutting you've been doing lately. I'll feed you and take good care of you. :)
