I have so many favorite pieces of bling I could not mention them all, but one of my favorite things about all the clear ones is that they can be colored to match anything. Here I used CRW-07CA-101(small in corner) love how these little pieces just adds the perfect touch and look, and I used CR-07CA-101. I have used Copic markers (G21 andYG61) to color them green.
