Nothing inspiring for this one. The base is Olive.

Lovely eye candy, I'm never sure about the colour so stay away from olives and greens but you have both inspired me to order some greens and have a play.
Lovely beads Trudy.
Trudi that heart is gorgeous
Thank you .. glad I got the right green this time!! :)
It's not nor,ally a colour I'd use but I like it with the blue!
Still not much on here - love the heart Trudi and your etched bead Linda ;D

pretty fritties x
Lovely beads so far, this is not a colour I have (I don't think), but it does look rather tempting after seeing what prettiness you have all come up with. x
Hiya ;D
Rather late entry from me for this one - I had made a focal with Olive Green last weekend, but then the bugger wouldn't come off the mandrel, so I had to try again this weekend.
Here is a set made with Olive Green, etched, over Acid Lemon Yellow, and with Val Cox's Sunflower Fields frit (courtesy of a sample given to me by marklaird!)... It's a nice colour when etched I think.
