Beady Back Track: April's ABS challenge and Stringing Magazine

Dragonfly Necklace by Bonnin Designs with pendant by Earthenwood

You may recall that our first Art Bead Scene monthly challenge was launched in April and the theme was Taking Flight. We had so many great entries for the challenge...it was a real joy to see all the creative work our readers made with art beads!
I was leafing through my latest copy of Stringing Magazine, and found out about a new challenge that they are running that I thought would be perfect for our readers, especialy for those of you who entered our April challenge. It is their own challenge, also with a flight theme! This is your chance to be published...come on, you already did the work...why not submit? See below for details, taken from Stringing, Summer 2007, page 9:


"We often hear from readers how much they enjoy the titles of the projects featured in Stringing. So we decided to create a beading challenge: In every issue, we'll give you a fun title for a project, and you create a piece based on that title. Our favorites will be featured in the Winter 2007 issue of Stringing, and all of the submissions will be posted on our website, stringingmagazine.com. The first title is "I'll Fly Away". Please send a high-resolution JPEG(300 dpi) of your project to stringing (at) interweave (dot) com no later than August 6, 2007."

We encourage you to submit and wish you all luck!
