January is winding to a close and so is our Group Challenge at the B'sue Boutiques Creative Group at Facebook
The challenge was our FIRST group challenge, but I have the feeling that we are just beginning to get our group creativity soaring! There were many contributions. The challenge closes at midnight tonight, January 31, 2013.
Here are a few of the photos uploaded to our Group Challenge Pinterest Board in the last week or so (I'm trying to feature some of the ones that I haven't put in the newsletter or other featured places, yet!)
This one is from Elizabeth Hildred of Mad Scientist Designs at Etsy. She has used one of the filigree bow tie brooch tops from the B'sue Boutiques website.
Patricia Tassery-Stefani just joined us a bit ago and offered this cool fashion pendant:
Love the beaded key! And then, Pam Anger offered this centerpiece necklace with polymer clay roses:
I would love to own that, wouldn't you? And my pal, Cindy McMurray, snuck this one in, and I didn't even notice til I was checking the board today:
That's funky and chunky! Speaking of which, I thought Susan Bowerman's memory wire bracelet was, too:
Jennifer Jazwick-Smith inked some brass from one of her B'sue orders and made this cutie:
Ahhhh.....the charms of tea!
Rene Byrd of Designs Bloom turned in something spectacular:
I loved Jann Tague's piece....I think I might have put this on my business page once, but can't remember! Oh well....bears repeating. This one was, as she said, outside her usual style....but who can tell!
I admired this necklace by Isabelle Featherston:
And Ingrid of Lilisgems made this lovely confection:
Noelle of Angelno Designs in France designed this very unique cuff bracelet:
I LIKE that one.....great idea! And her pal, Manu Roue, also of France, made these cute octopus earrings:
These are all just recent highlights! I loved the diverse creativity and especially, all the participation!
Tomorrow night, Friday, February 1, we'll announce the winner of the 25.00 gift certificate at the Creative Group The winner is to be chosen by simple random drawing which we will do here at the shop. I will have someone pick a number and that's it!
Everyone who participated is a winner, though. Our challenges are not just about who might win the prize; they are about growing, thinking outside the box, and sharing ideas. Any time you are able to enter a blog hop or a challenge, you should definitely take advantage of the opportunity to expand artistic horizons and do something you might not normally have done.
You will ALWAYS learn something new about your art, in the process!
All the creations are wonderful.

I love the fact that they are all so refreshing to look at. The colors are so fresh and so in for the coming spring! I love everything about it, especially the octopus earrings. =)
