Color Challenge

Well, today is the reveal day for the Challenge of Color 2011 hosted by the lovely Erin of Treasures Found.   Now there are many wonderful bloggers taking part in this blog hop, so click over to Treasures Found for the full list and start hopping.  I will be visiting all the blog starting Thursday (my next day off)!  Here are the few pieces I managed to get completed.  I do have a couple others in process and in my head so will be continuing this color scheme for a little while longer.

Now here is the picture I received to use as inspiration!

Here is the Bracelet I completed:
I know it is hard to tell (sorry for the horrible night pictures) but those green beads are a gorgeous sea green!

Here is Earring #1
 Earring #2



Earrings # 3


I will be replacing these horrible  pictures tomorrow morning, if possible.  Thank you for visiting!

    That palette would have been a huge challenge for me - but you did a really great job! I love your use of the red wire - it really evokes the feel of that picture!

    I love the smooth beads in your bracelet. Are they gemstones? And your earring pairs are all so sweet!

    Your palette had all the same values which would have been a big challenge for me. But you pulled it off in a great way. Lovely pieces.

    Your palette and bracelet are beautiful. I would have added a hint of the mustard in the bracelet for it to be perfect. Maybe tiny seed beads or tiny bi- cone crystals?

    That was clever to use red wire, for a little extra punch of color! I chose "red" too, and I think I would have struggled with this palette, but you did great.

    You had such a strong hued palette...it's good you found such inspiration in it that you are going to continue to use it. I love the big brownish red beads you used...beautiful with the green.

    Even if you feel the colors are off in the photos, the designs are really nice -- I think the bracelet is my favorite. It echoes the colors AND the Asian feel of the inspiration photo!

    Very pretty jewellery and a great interpretation of your palette! My fave's the first pair of earrings. I like that the design is simple, but with finishing touches (i.e. the bead caps) that really make them more than just simple. Well done!
