I have been spending some time looking at the work of other artists online as a source of inspiration. I uploaded some of my pictures to Flikr,and joined some of the groups there that share their polymer work. Yesterday I noticed these wonderful buterfly beads by Jaels Jewels. She has some lovely colored butterflies but this translucent one I find just amazing:

If you click on the bead it will take you to her Flikr account so you can see some of her other work.
