LET THE VOTING BEGIN!

Welcome to the Second Aspiring Metalsmiths Team Challenge.

As you remember, this challenge was brought to us by the lovely Julie of Wabi Brooks Studio. She asked us to interpret this lovely and classic limerick about spring:

"Spring has sprung,
The grass is riz.
I wonder where
the birdies is?"

Votes are to be cast on the following critieria:
1) The creation which best embodies, expresses, and otherwise personifies the chosen theme,
2) The creation which best demonstrates creativity and thinking-out-of-the-boxness.

So without further ado, here are our entries!

Laura from Simply Adorning




Vicki from Alegra Jewelry


Asa from ASAP Designs


Pennee from All Wired Up Jewelry


Claire from Brightstar109


Lori from LoriCitSay


Anna from Anna's Inspirations


Deb from AWE Shop


Clarity of Scrollwork Designs




Amy of Amy Nicoles


Whoa boy, this is gonna be hard!!

By the way if I've missed your entry, messed up your name, or otherwise totally botched this post please let me know! Otherwise, get to voting because the challenge ends SUNDAY AT MIDNIGHT!!

Good luck to all, can't wait to see where this takes us :)

  1. Ok this vote was EXCRUCIATING!! I finally cast my vote for Deb of Aweshop, but it was such a close call between that and Asa's entry. I love Asa's within an inch of it's life but Deb's just has a certain flow to it that I couldn't get away from. Beautiful work every one of you!!

  5. These were all great pieces. Such a hard decision. Awesome work.
    I would love to know just a little bit about the materials used in some of the pieces. Perhaps in future challenges the artists could submit a short materials/explanation statement.

  6. I think everyone outdid themselves this time! You all are improving so much, which is great to see. The challenges are obviously doing what they are meant to! I'm sad I couldn't finish my piece in time, but I'm ready to take on the next challenge, whatever it may be. Now, off to vote!
