I am making a square box approx 9"dX12w" and am thinking about the design elements for the lid.
I like the look of relief carvings for something like this as opposed to vcarving. I have an idea for the center but the rest of it looks "empty" and i have gone thru all of my decorative element/corners dover cd's and haven't seen anything that i realy like, plus in this instance in my minds eye the mixing of relief and vcarving just ain't "floatin my boat".
So if anyone has either pictures or sources for inspiration they could give me i'd appreciate it. I have looked in the usual places but haven't seen anything that hit me just right.
It is one of those funny things where you don't know what you want but when you see it you know that will be just what you wanted.
