Because i 'm going to move to an other city , i must say good bye to several of my importend caring and helping friends.
I thought it would be nice to make a small present for them.
I was allready started with a other goodbye gift for my choire, so i thought i will use the design i have made some months ago for that as well.
I always weare a heart earing in one of my ears so it's a sort of statement for me, and all those people know that as well;-D
so they will remember me easely.LOL
I thought i will make it easy and quick but after all i wasn't satified and have done more with it.
I'm now fine with the result and think it's good to give away.
