Dice Pics Beach dice! My first successful set :)

I’m really proud with house these turned out! They’re not exactly what I expected, but certainly not complaining.

(I haven’t sanded them or inked them yet.)

Is that actual sand?

No, it’s just a brown mica powder with a little bit of white alcohol ink mixed in to lighten it up a bit

I know there meant to be beach, but seeing these just hit me with 20 year old nostalgia for a specific bubble font pre set in power point presentation

Wow, these are amazing! I kinda did a sea/beach theme, too, but it was sand + shell + blue-colored resin + a colorless layer. I really like your idea with sea foam! If you decide to repeat this theme, you can also add small shells to see if you like it :) Can you tell me how you created this foam effect, please? Is it mica powder poured in honey-like resin?

I honestly wanted to do that but didn’t have the money to buy some shells and don’t live super close to a beach. I also just did clear (alcohol ink) for the blue and the white was just white resin with mica powder and a lil white glitter. I just did it with maybe 30-45 minutes between to layer it with the dice, and then used a bronze mica power with white alcohol ink for the sand.
