Congratulations, Melanie! You did a fine job on those. Wasn't really that hard, was it? Great job. I like your idea for the backer. Maybe try one with a backer (1/4" thick) cut just about 1/4" bigger than the piece. so it gives a border. Paint it a Christmas color, you could even work it so you paint the backer green where the holly shows and red on the rest, or something to that effect, or is it affect, not sure which goes here.
