Sometimes the prettiest flowers, grow in the ugliest places! This beautiful Blue Cornflower was growing in a weedy ditch<\/span> alongside a parking lot. It was just so pretty, I had to bring it home for Doug to photograph, so it could be used as inspiration for a new color recipe palette!<\/span><\/p>\n

Although the green pod at the base of this flower is extremely cool, I decided to use only blues and purples for this palette. That’s because I’ve already provided you with quite a few green shades in previous palettes.<\/span><\/p>\n

The mica content in the pearl clay makes the recipes perfect for using in mica shift projects… yet another technique I must add to the growing list of polymer clay how to videos<\/a> for filming.<\/span><\/p>\n

By adding some translucent to these recipes, they would also make very lovely rose petals for a Variegated Rose Bead<\/a> project.<\/span><\/p>\n

The following individual recipes will be added to the Polymer Clay Members Library during the month of July’09 in Volume-014 [A-Series]:<\/span><\/p>\n
