Maybe start with some simple Isometric shapes (Cube/Triangle/Sphere) and see how that goes. the play around with those, maybe make a small house (still isometric)..
Or, if you don't like to do isometric, or just not in the mood, then all I can really suggest is kind of just work on smaller things, to build your skill with using colors. And how you shade and use your shine effect in them. (Good way to test shine effect is to make a pole, try your best to make it look rounded without just straight pillow shading.)
Maybe make some smaller tiles, landscaping kinds. Grass (keep it around 3-5 colors), Mud, Sand, Cliffs.... This is a good forum to view on where to start when beginning tiles - http://www.wayofthepixel.net/pixelation/index.php?topic=2302.0
