Hi,
There is an entire forum dedicated to showcasing GlassDiversions frit blends here: http://www.wetcanvas.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=233.
Also, you can view what customers did with my blends here: http://www.glassdiversions.com/gallery.html.
Hope that helps.
Thanks so much,
Robin

=) Clear, normally Vetrofond, most of them were made by dipping a clear rod into the frit blend and using it to make a footprint, and then encasing.
Have fun playing!

Morning from Finland !
I used BE white and clear...and all beads with PRISM frit was craked !
Denim and Vineyards Vines was fine .
I have used BE before and I anneal they in the kiln
Maybe it is best to try Uroboros with frits...?

These beads below were made with moretti white base, Prism frit and then clear moretti swirled around. I haven't had a problem with cracking with these.
I have tried System 96 with Prism but found them to be too dark.
The single bead below the set is made with moretti white and I "gravity" melted Prism frit and then encased in clear, it turned out well too.
I haven't yet tried my Bullseye glass with frit but you would think it would be fine if the COE's are close.

If I order white and clear...so are they so different ??

Thanks for the nice comments! 
I just mean that the System 96 white I have is not totally opaque so when you add frit to it there is not the "eye-popping" vibrant colours that you get with Moretti White. I hope that makes sense? I don't know if System 96 makes a more opaque white.
