Beauty should always be shared and not kept to oneself.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The following individual recipes will be added to the Polymer Clay Members Library during the month of Nov-2010 in Vol-030 [A-Series]:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><strong>Dry Grass <\/strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">(Recipe 030-1A)<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><strong>Morning Dew <\/strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">(Recipe 030-2A)<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><strong>Smoky Blue <\/strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">(Recipe 030-3A)<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><strong>Deep Shade<\/strong><strong><em><em> <\/em><\/em><\/strong><\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><strong> <\/strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">(Recipe 030-4A)<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"> <\/span><\/em><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><em>Dry Grass<\/em> is the Golden Wheat color of the dried grasses in the neighboring field. <em>Morning Dew<\/em>, <em>Smoky Blue<\/em> and <em>Deep Shade<\/em> are varying shades of dusky Blues making up the background colors in this photo. It should be noted that White would be a wonderful addition to this palette as the representation of the sparkling frost that has encrusted the dried grasses. Since Premo White on it&#8217;s own is the perfect White for this and would therefore not need a recipe, I decided not to include it in this color palette.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #800000;\">Dear Cindy, There you go again&#8230; teaching us how to smile and work happily with our artistic muse. Your color recipes are making me burst with excitement!!! I will be trying the new color combinations this evening (who knows what lovelies I will come up with now!). You have really inspired me, and I have tons of ideas running through my mind now that I see how combining colors from the clay packages creates COUNTLESS POSSIBILITIES!!! :) You are teaching me that working with color in PC is very similar to working with color in other mediums. I have been painting with oils, water colors, and acrylics for years, and got really excited about polymer clay when I just happened to run across your blog. Since then, my painting is on the back burner while I excitedly follow your examples with my new found love&#8230; polymer clay!!!\u00a0 Thank you from the bottom of 1\/2 part white, 1\/2 part translucent, and 1\/8 part alizarin crimson heart :) Sincerely<\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #800000;\"> <\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #800000;\">. <\/span><\/span>~Cindy-E<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Cindy, The recipes are inspiring and most appreciated.
