Here's a Tom question for you: What's wrong with this picture? If you solved 8824 and 9465, then it will be easy to figure out.

This is great! It was tricky, and I kept messing up so it took me couple of tries. The bow in the middle is amazing, and so is the shadow of the string. The lipstick is a neat touch. My only complaint is that it looks like one letter instead of a stack of them tied together.

Since the bureau belongs to a woman, (I guess that from the ladies underwear and butterfly shirt that I hope don't belong to a man... O.o), I assume the owner of the bureau kissed the letters from her sweetheart, instead of her sweetheart kissing them and leaving a lipstick stain? :) Other than wondering about that, I'm not sure what's wrong with it... I'm turning into a really bad detective!

I can't wait for the next one in this series!

Diana, you are a really good detective. You are exactly correct, there is no lipstick mark on the real letter.

I did try to make a stack of letters, but then the puzzle would not be solvable. I tried different ways, and gave up. I figured it would be hard enough with the bow, and that took some work to make it solvable.

i love it - the black shadow under the blue bow gives this image a nice depth. i also like the angle of the stack of letters against the black background - it makes the image pop out at you. beautifully designed.

Un poco duro de resolver, hasta que te das cuenta de lo que es y la secuencia de azules y negros.

Todos tenemos lotes de cartas como esas...

Lleno de buenos recuerdos, espero.
