HI Everyone ! I crafted this heart Saturday for a major event I attended. A 50 years Grade School Reunion! Wow! The name of the grade school in Phoenix was Montebello. I went there all 8 years with over 200 other local neighborhood chums. What a blast from the past! Well the heart was made under pressure. Wanted something new & nice to show & tell. It came out well. But the big pressure was when it and the chain it was attached to; fell from my neck. Lost heart! I was heartbroken. I wouldn’t have attended the event if I couldn’t find it. I had to back track to about 5 different locations and found it lying in a parking lot. Lesson learned! Be sure to attach the lobster clasp securely. I’m sure I learned that in grade school but I was probably goofing off that day. Schools out! Ed O the rock came from Beefstock! A B.I.F. stone mostly

That's a beauty, Ed! ...Lesson learned! Be sure to attach the lobster clasp securely. I’m sure I learned that in grade school but I was probably goofing off that day. ROFL! Thank goodness you were able to find it after losing it!

Under pressure, you say. So, heart under big pressure. This is where the intense red color is from. Mostly.
Beautiful, the reunion of the two halves (A.K.A. the seam) is perfect. And there's a simmetry in the patterns of the two halves, also.

Thanks everyone ! Actually that cut was done on opposite ends of the slab. So symmetry was forced by me mostly

Yes I was really bummed out when it was lost Mostly because I hadn’t taken a picture of it yet At least with a picture I have something to show Luckily it was found though!
Thanks for the reunion analogy folks I hadn’t thought of that angle
I’m still trying to understand the significance of the reunion? It was really fabulous rocking & talking with all those names of the past. Lucky man to be able to attend. So many gone. Healing re-union hearts are next on my grind list
