The green definitely came out better, though I think the blue could come out just as good too if it had the same transparency(?) to it? You probably already have an idea of what you'd do different next time, if I had to guess

Yep. The blue mica powder isn't as sparkly as the green. The next blank I make with blue will need more blue powder and probably a dash of silver to bring out the same "crystal" effect that the green one has.
