Your attention to detail is amazing. 
I think the colors are just right. Do you plan to make more projects like these?

I was wondering how you cut out the circles so perfectly. Are there better quality circle cutter’s available?
Thanks for that, Wood Guy.  I do have another project like this in mind, but I'm not going to tackle it right away. 
Here's the circle cutter I used.  I chose it for a couple reasons.  It had both a trammel point and a non-marring foot that slips over the point.  Also, it has a wheel-style cutter.  I've found that these work better on veneer because they're less likely to track with the grain when cutting.  It worked well enough for this project, but because the tool flexes, the circles are not perfect, and fitting circle to hole could have gaps and tight spots.  There must be better tools out there, but for a one-off project, I wouldn't be willing to spend a lot for it.

It came out great! 
Now I challenge you to take what you learned here, and incoperate it into a design of your own
Thanks, Ty.  Now you're really pushing me out of my comfort zone!  😃
