Here we go.
I created a goat milk soap with carribbean blue, sage green, yellow, buttercup, and sparkling snowflake micas. The snowflake was used to lighten up the buttercup to a lighter yellow despite looking orange at first! The yellows made up 50% of the batter with the other two colors evenly split for the other 50%. I used a slab mold which I had only used one other time but couldn't decide how I wanted to cut it to best see the patterns. So...I cut the slab in half and cut one section into smaller bars and the other side was rotated 90 degrees and cut again that way which revealed the swirls. The bars look like ocean waves breaking over on the beach side while the other cut shows the swirls (and all kinds of faces ). The scent is a mix of sage, rosemary, and grapefruit essential oils - heavy on the sage.

View attachment 1000009718.jpgThis was created with Nurture Handmade Soap colors, Love and Sunshine Mica with TD to lighten it(combo@ 56%), yellow vibrance [email protected]%, yellow [email protected]%, celadon green& lime a peel Mica @14.5% combined. The flowers are Cornflower blue enviroglitter and Caribbean blue. The bees are yellow vibrance and activated charcoal, they are painted with water& black onyx enviroglitter to help them stand out. All embeds were made with the standard disks that came with my small extruder.
This is my rough drawing 3rd photo. 4th photo is yellows still in the pitchers & bowl.

It's not asking if I want to add the thumbnail pictures, but the cell signal isn't good here.
I can't wait to see all the other pretty soaps!
Thanks for the inspiration @dibbles !!
