I've had the pleasure of working with some really great ob material lately. Hope you enjoy! Utah Gold Sheen and Snowflake from Don (dlcgems.com). He also sent me some very cool snowflake that is IN gold sheen, but I haven't cabbed those pieces yet!: Purple Sheen from my friend Frank: Velvet from Roy!: The shine: (And, I entered this one in the killer cab contest): Another angle: Thanks for taking some of your time to check out some of mine!!!

Phenomenal! Those are all fantastic, but those velvet are spectacular. I still don't know how you do it. I'm going to go back and look at your earlier post about your method. Thanks for sharing.

Those really turned out terrific Krystee! I'm really fond of that gold sheen material. You sure get a killer polish on this stuff.

Krystee, when i first joined I saw some lace obsidian you did and was so excited I bought like - well let's just say WAY MORE than I should have (it's pretty ridiculous actually)
As I play with it though, I can't get that high gloss you do.
Do you have a recipe/tutorial/secret you could share?
Thanks! Love your obsidian cabs.
