These beads were created with Val Cox Dreamscape frit blend. This frit has been in my stash for years and I just haven't used it up. Lately, I have been trying to just start using up this frit because I have so much now. This set has a bit more range than the Teal frit.

This blend was created by using Dreamscape, white, and shimmering goldstone with an encased method. The beads are a gorgeous shade of green with hints of turquoise. The white really brightens up the blend. This has been a new thing lately to add some white into my frits and it changes up the color completely.

These beads were created with the frit on the exterior with an added twist. I stuck with blues and purples for my base glass colors and one has a transparent. The cool colors look great with the blend colors that are mostly blues, greens, and purples. The purple base glass added a nice contrast and it looks beautiful with the cool frit colors.

Here are a few close ups of this frit blend with the colors. The violet new continues to be one of my favorite choices due to the reactions it creates. The frit really spreads on this glass.

Today, I will make up a few beads with this blend by itself without the added white. I remember it was a bit darker in color. I am sure the blues will be dominant, but we will see.
