I am first, I made this bead and loved it but it cracked (laucha again) so it sits in my kitchen window,  the ink blue looks really nice I reckon.

One of my favourite colours, brilliant.

This is the front and back of the bead, for those who don't know Ink Blue is great over periwinkle blue so on this bead I had a mix on the base of both white and periwinkle and it makes it look "shaded".
