La Bella Joya: The Mini-Charm Challenge

Marcie Abney of La Bella Joya blog is hosting a mini-charm challenge.  She has a mini-charm pattern in the April/May issue of Beadwork.  Create your own version of the charm using it however you want, earrings, necklace, bracelet, etc.  Take a picture and email it to Marcie.  She will hold a random drawing on April 6th and the winner will receive a free tutorial of your choice from her shop.  (She has some gorgeous ones.)

Valentine's Day necklace

My Beading Happily Ever After Valentine's challenge necklace is on their blog.  Here is a link:  http://beadhappilyeverafter.com/blog/  I am about half way done the page.

Really pleased with it as it is out of comfort zone. 


What do you think?   Usually I am just a stinger but the hearts have some black in them and I thought of the black chain that I had.  Made matching earring from the small red and black hearts.

Thanks for stopping by.
