In the forums at http://cs.artjewelrymag.com/artcs/forums/ we have started doing monthly challenges.  (Actually, we have been doing this for a couple of months but they just updated the forums so everything is new.)  This months challenges was yellow and black (using those colors on a project).  How we used them was left up to the artist.  The whole idea was to get us to try something new.

  I decided to use six different yellows and create a butterfly cane.  Actually it is two canes that I then combine to make butterflies.  These two lovelies are on a barrette.

  Of course, I have ends of the canes to create beads from.  Here are two larger focal beads that I made.  I do like them.
