The only thing I added color to was to the flowers. 

 

I found this picture over on another site and since I'm kinda in to flowers it got my interest up real quick..

 

The picture is all blurry and my printer was running out of ink so I had to trace where I thought I needed to scroll saw in to smaller pieces so I could hold them in my hand while grinding the unwanted wood away. 

 This is the picture I traced out then scroll sawed on the lines. My pretty boots. 

I ended up with 32 pieces of maple in this puzzle not counting the flower petals.

 

Only the flowers got a little color added.

  Next picture is where I made little cups and lowered the insides of them so the petals would have a raised ridge to start

laying the petals while the glue sets up.  Then if the flower didn't come out good enough to suit me I could remove that flower and try making a better one. But thankfully they were all accepted on the first try!!! 

   I could remove the inside piece of wood and using the band saw cut some of the top off so it would set down enough to leave a slope for the petals to lay on. Clear as mud huh?

Wow, Jess! Wish I had your for detail and color. 

More, Jesse....more!

That came out beautiful!
