At the beginning of December Claire from the Art Elements team announced
that the themed challenge would be 'white'. To read the original blog post

White could have been pure, with accents, in various tones or whatever we decided met the theme. I designed these earrings specifically for the challenge.
I saw these gorgeous red creek jasper drops in my bead stash and decided they were a perfect start for the theme. I combined them with these wonderful lampwork beads with various tones of white and splashes of brick red. I call these Southwestern Snow and they are available for sale HERE.
But as I look at some of my other new creations I think this theme got a hold of my design muse. White abounds!

Lovely earrings, the pearls are the perfect choice for this challenge
ReplyDeleteYou have managed to make many festive looking earrings that are elegant. Some maybe be perfect for Christian brides who like handmade jewellery.
ReplyDeleteOh, they are all very pretty, but I love Goldenrod the most!
ReplyDeleteooo those last two ear rings sets are amazing! the third one the white pearls with the gold....stunning!
ReplyDeleteI love Gold paired with White. So elegant! And, as a native Cali gal, I'd much rather see the white caps of the ocean waves than the mountains. And sometimes we could see Mt. Baldy while down at the beach!! Though I like that we had the best situation: Beach, Desert, Mountains .. all less than an hour away! Alysen
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! These are some really spectacular earrings. I'm particularly drawn to the Tutus and Leaves of Pearls. But, they're all really fabulous. Awesome job with white!!
ReplyDeleteLovely designs. I really like the contrast between the metal and the white components.
ReplyDeleteWhat a collection of lovely earrings!
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love the Southwestern Snow earrings.
ReplyDeleteI love all your earrings but the first pair really speak to me. I love the designs in the jasper. A really nice contrast with the white.

ReplyDeleteThanks all! I did have some fun with this challenge!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great winter collection.
ReplyDeleteI love the golden snowflakes. They are just beautiful and my favorite.
ReplyDeleteGreat earring designs. The pearl earrings are all very elegant and the jasper pair are my favorite. They made me think of a pinto pony until I read your description and now I can totally see snow on the red rock mountains.
ReplyDeleteEach more beautiful than the other! I like how you've combined gold and white. The tutu earrings made me chuckle, I'd wear them every day! :)
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful and elegant earring designs!
ReplyDeleteThe white and gold is so regal, so winter! I love the Southwestern Snow! And my fav? Those MoP feathers are divine! Thanks for joining us!
ReplyDeleteWow, you really were productive! Your earrings are lovely and elegant! They not only fit the theme white wonderfully but also are festive for the holidays! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for participating in the december theme challenge at Art Elements! And also taking part in the first challenge I hosted! :)
All your interpretations are cool! The first pair reminds of snowy mountains, indeed! And pearls always bring elegance in!
ReplyDeleteWow! Lots of fun designs here! That first pair is my favorite... probably because I love gemstones! Your name for it is great too. The ones with the "tutus" are adorable too! Nice work.
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone! This was definitely fun! Now to see what is next. :)
