The blue ones look closer to Monarch opal (also known as sterling opal) which is a beautiful synthetic opal I've been obsessed with for a minute. You should google it... you'll totally understand. It's beautiful! I was actually looking for a tutorial to recreate monarch opal when i found your video... now ive got a few fun idea. :)
Thank you so much!

Fantastique 🥰

[@MaceHuntarr]

So, I want to see, and make, faux smoky quartz, considering it's my birthstone, and almost June. I think it would be cool.

[@susanrapp3109]

How did you get the sparkle effect? Was it in the alcohol inks or did you add glitter to the polymer clay? I watched the whole video and it was not clear to me where the sparkle effect came from. Thank you.🙂

[@JessamaTutorials]

Opal flakes were added to translucent polymer clay. That's where the sparkle came from. The alcohol ink just added the color. After baking I added resin and that's what gave it a glassy finish.

Thanks very much for your reply. Mystery resolved! LoL.
I've enjoyed your tutorials and have learned a lot. 🙂

[@livethegoodlife1740]

What resin do you use please?
UV resin?

[@JessamaTutorials]

I use two UV resins: Magic Gloss and this one. www.etsy.com/au/listing/1156630149

[@juniflickan87]

Hi. I need to ask, what is the name on the clay with glitters in it?

[@esterfabiani7096]

Jassama hello! I follow your videos with great interest and I hope to learn at least some of your techniques ^ _ ^ can you tell me what surface you work on? because I tried to work on my kitchen table and the clay sticks all ... I see that you can put both alcohol and acrylic paints in this surface and clean them easily! maybe I can buy myself a layer of that material to put it on the table and work with.

[@JessamaTutorials]

I work on a glazed ceramic tile.
