In this post, I concentrating on testing CiM - Creation is Messy's pale green transparent named Limelight.
Described as "a clean, cool green with no hints of yellow with a tendency to develop micro bubbles". I did see this in the plain spacers, but when I used it to encase, the bubbling was not as noticeable.
It is a beautiful pale tint to encase silver glass reactions.
In these beads below, I used Limelight as a base and an encasement for Double Helix's Psyche, it's newer Skiron and rare Aurae Light.
First up, the "recipe" was Limelight base, layer of silver glass, encase with more Limelight and scrolls/dots of Aurae Light.
This green is pure and clean, I really like the result!
Next up, a simpler look of the encased silver glass reaction. The Double Helix Psyche glass was reduced and then encased with Limelight to capture the blues/ pinks and amber hues.
Last but not least, Limelight was tested with Double Helix's newer Skiron which is a silver striking rainbow glass.
I am always challenged with striking glasses versus those that react with a reduction flame. I may be due to the fact that I tend to work in a cooler flame, but I thought I would try the same test with Limelight as I did with the results already described above.
So same recipe as the other beads above, but I substituted Skiron for Psyche.
I got more amber than rainbow, so I definitely will need more practice with this new glass.
I paired with bead with Aurae Light spacers and a CiM Frozen bead with dots of Aurae Light.
Frozen is a opal white that when silver glass is applied turns the surface a pretty golden tint that compliments the silver glass droplets.
Til next post, have a great day!
Smiles,
