I made this batch today on a whim and glad I did. Its scented with raspberry patchouli FO, colored with powdered parsley, ultramarine violet and bee pollen. I wish the "yellow" was more gold in color but I'm still pretty happy with it. I did a spoon swirl and to my surprise I got a "tree" and a wonderful "butterfly" out of the swirls!! So happy with this!

Looks great! I love the contrast of the vibrant colors. The 'accidental' butterfly looks beautiful and when I saw the tree, the first thing that popped into my head was "it looks like the Tree of Life"! :clap:
 
Those are very cool indeed! Probably couldn't do it again that way if you tried which is so sad. I've certainly had some happy accidents when I cut my soaps but unable to get the same effect again doing the same darn thing!
