I would like to introduce you to Swimmy, the handsome Betta Fish that swims in a bowl on my desk. He was a birthday gift from my daughter – she named him too… can’t you tell? Swimmy is the inspiration for the Volume-12 [A-Series] color palette that will be released in the members library next month (May’09).<\/span><\/p>\n

I’ve been meaning to do some color recipes using the colors of this pretty tropical fish for awhile, but kept forgetting to get my DH Doug to take a picture of him.<\/span><\/p>\n

Well as it turns out, my computer was having some problems the other day. So when Doug was working on it at my desk, I reminded him to take a shot of Swimmy. And now here he is!<\/span><\/p>\n

What I love about the colors of this Betta fish, is how the deep rich Betta Red<\/em> and the warm Thailand Sun<\/em> yellow of his scales, are outlined individually by the dark Beechwood<\/em> brown. And the biggest surprise of all, is the shimmery Mermaid<\/em> turquoise that appears in the folds of his tail when he opens them for show!<\/span><\/p>\n

I hope you enjoy this Betta fish polymer clay color palette. The following individual recipes will be added to the Polymer Clay Members Library during the month of May’09 in Volume-012 [A-Series]:<\/span><\/p>\n
