Fantastic! Looks like you are really embracing SUMMER! I love the colors you used in the earrings- very HAPPY!
Glad you got to play along with us!! I hope you had a good time!
Wow, so beautiful. I really enjoyed all your pieces. It's funny, I have all the components of that first pair of earrings in my stash, too.
All lovely and so colorful! I love the first pair of earrings - those Czech cathedral beads are gorgeous. I like how you used the kit along with your own beads to make each piece unique and interesting. Nicely done!
Beautiful pieces - I love the hollywood glam necklace - makes a statement but won't weigh your neck down :-)
Alice, those mango highlights make me happy! I love your designs :) When Lorelei announced this challenge, I went to the site right away, I even had a kit in my shopping cart. The sober reality is: some packages take close to a month to reach me in Canada from the U.S., leaving me little time to enjoy creating on a deadline. So I decided to enjoy the beads from the spectator's viewpoint :)
Beautiful work. I love the way you put colours together.
Alice - kaboom! Love the bright colors in your earrings. The Hollywood Glam necklace I'm particularly drawn to. The Mykonos components are wonderful aren't they?
I love what you did with the kit and the bright colorful earrrings.
So much summery goodness ... LOVE the colors you chose! I suddenly have an uncontrollable need to escape to a tropical island!!!
Love the bright colors too with the muted colors of the stash!
Wow, I love all your pieces. Those earrings colors are fantastic! I love each of the necklaces too. It's so fun to see how everyone used the materials. Yours are great!
Looks like you had a blast with your kit! That Boro Boro necklace is just darling!
Great idea to add all those sunny colours to the kit. Everything looks yummy
Beautiful work! My favorite is the first pair of earrings!
I LOVE your colour choices! I never thought to piput bright oranges and yellows with the subdued tones of the components but it really lifts evrything.
Love the popping colours and especially the earrings with Petra's drops, such cool designs.
Your pieces are all wonderful!
Your designs are so pretty. You create with color and balance, very nice.
I love that Bora Bora necklace! Such pretty blue colors.
