Me first! I get to comment first! LOL. It's so coordinating how both of these challenges have similar coloring and worked well for you. My favorite is the NECKLACE. I can totally see a famous model walking down the cat walk wearing just this necklace as their accessory in a white string bikini. You rocked this challenge.
ReplyDeleteHi Heather, Great job. I hope you are feeling better now. My favorite is the necklace. It is very unique and creative.
ReplyDeleteLove all the designs especially those coral earrings! Those just rock!
ReplyDeleteYou made pretty darn good jewelry while sick, Heather! Hope you are feeling better soon. I am loving that chicklet bead necklace, and the anchor earrings are nifty too. Thanks for being in the Blue Fantasy Hop!
ReplyDeleteUgh, being sick during the Summer is No Fun! I hope you get better quickly now! You sure did create beautiful pieces despite not feeling up-to-par! Lisa sent you beautiful shades!..the bright blue necklace is my favorite!

ReplyDeleteGreat 'coral' earrings! Before reading the blog, that was my first reacting, coral... (-: Lovely colours... Take care.
ReplyDeleteI love when people are doing more than one challenge because then I get to see twice as many great designs. Stopped by for the Anchors hop, and I adore that beaded coral. Those are some great statement earrings.
ReplyDeleteoh wow love the idea of putting coral with your anchors! what a brilliant idea!! well done
ReplyDeleteBeautiful and inspired designs, Heather... despite being under the weather, you rose to the occasion :) I have to add how incredible the "coral" looks with your earring pair!
