Emerald Lake by Ruolin Shi

So much fun! I really enjoyed the little puzzles within the puzzle. Such thoughtful design.

The visual pun took me a minute

I couldn't figure out why there were jewel-shaped whimsies instead of the usual animals in this one, and then it hit me--_Emerald_ Lake. Nice one, guys. The cut style on the bottom here was a nice change from Stumpcraft's standard, more swirly style, a bit blocky without going full-on geometric. And the color-line cutting for the alternate solution worked really well.

Super fun!

I don't normally like challenging puzzles, but I took a chance on this and I loved it! It wasn't so hard that I was frustrated, but wasn't so easy I was bored. And the finished piece is so beautiful! My only wish (as unrealistic as it is) is that I came with some extra pieces so I could make the little picture and have them both!
