Acrylic inlay

Thanks everyone! So, I got the idea when I was wondering if I could do something like my mom’s hummingbird (Acrylic and walnut hummingbird) using clear acrylic as the frame instead of wood so that it could go on an LED base. Then I realized that some of what I used for that wasn’t really suited for this since the LED light wouldn’t shine up through it. I’m guessing that was the more opaque colors I used. And also the color changing might look weird on something that’s not really abstract. So I had already done a notebook cover with the compass and thought that might work. Now I am wondering what other colors of the acrylic would do. I liked that one so much I made a bigger version with the same colors since those are the only ones I had. I am looking forward to trying it again!
