ABS's September Challenge

Margaret Macdonals'd

"The White Rose and The Red Rose"

Serves as the inspiration for this months

Art Bead Scene Challenge.

This what I created last night.

I made my own earring finding/charm.

I cut out these brass triangles and then embossed them

with the 

Sizzix - Decoemboss die - Cherry Blossom Garden

Used alcohol ink - Current, then sealed with 

Vintaj sealer. 

My goal was to echo the translucency of the 

Red Rose ladies dress.

I was also drawn to the textures 

on the upper corners.

I also liked the accent of 

little blue beads in the painting.

The cube bead picks up a golden mossy green hue 

of the White Rose Ladies dress.

The bell flowers, although not roses help give it 

that feminine touch. 

I really like the fact that these earrings would not have 

come into existence with out this challenge.
