Ive been making leaves this week and decided to try a few in Light amber, ive added teal spacers inbetween . The larger leaf has a bit of frit added as I wanted to see what effect it would have .

Those colours go so well together x

Gaynor: could that be CiM maple? It's a little browner and less orange of an amber.

I had the same thought! Etched BHB discs with intense black: mid amber, amber and dark amber (which is a bit too dark for this application).



These rounds all have two tones of amber in each: light, mid, amber, and dark. Except for the middle bead which has the darker three.
