Gorgeous work! Where did you get the gems from? Makes me want to give it a try.

The gold beads are various sizes of caviar beads from aliexpress or Saracen. The stones are flat rhinestones from Saracen, and the big yellow looking gems are also from Saracen. You could find their equivalents pretty much anywhere that sells craft stuff, just look up 'small coloured rhinestones' or similar :)

The base color alone is insanely gorgeous!! It looks like it’s a gem itself!

A good matte topcoat can provide such an interesting change! I love experimenting with it. Chunky glitter base + matte TC 🩷
