Desc:	Autumn Leaves
Glass:	COE 90 Bullseye turquoise blue 1116-30 and clear with white wispies 2130-00F frit: red, orange, canary yellow and jade green opal powders other: fiber paper, Ferro gold paint pen, and GlasTac
Method:	A leaf-shaped craft punch from Michael's was used to punch leaves from thin fiber paper, which did not provide adequate depth. Another piece of fiber paper was too thick, so for every leaf on these squares, two leaves from the original fiber paper were glued together. Each fiber paper leaf was slathered with glue and sprinkled with powder frit. The frit side was glued to the clear and white wispy glass square. The fiber paper side was placed on the kiln shelf topped with turquoise blue, then fired to full fuse. To get the leaves on top, the squares were cleaned then signed with gold pen, all the while keeping the fiber paper leaves in place. The squares were fired a second time with the fiber paper up to fire polish them.
