Day Seven


We've made it to the end of the first week. Today we learned about Tangleations, which are created when an original tangle is varied or altered.  A Tangleation can be created with a change of shape, tonal value, or several other changes, or combinations of changes. We were then to make an our tile (or ATC) using tangleations of the patterns we had already learned. I did mine using String #007-for the seventh day of course.

So ends week one, chapter one. Tomorrow we start chapter three.  Will you be joining me?

Thanks for stopping by.

Day 19

Image
Today the Diva announced the winners of the contest that was part of the 200th challenge celebration. I was in shock when I got an email from her yesterday that I was one of the winners!!!  I am so excited.  I rarely win anything, and to win a contest with a Diva challenge... a Zentangle challenge... well I just can't believe it.  You can see more of the challenge (over 200 participants!) please visit her website at  I am the Diva blog Challenge 201, this weeks challenge is to design a tile using the Moebius Syndrome Foundation's logo as our string in honor of Moebius Syndrome awareness. This is mine: And this is Day 19 from my tangle*a*day calendar, using the patterns Beeline, Cubine, and Rain. Thank you to all who stop by, and to those who leave comments. The comments are very encouraging and help keep me motivated.

Day Four

Image
The first thing that I completed today was a tile for the new "It''s New to Me" challenge by SuzyMosh Creations . Today's change was to do a TIA with a "new to you" tangle starting with the letter "T".  So I went to Linda's TanglePatterns.com and when I went on the "T" page there was only 1 or 2 that I was at all familiar with. I chose 2 for my tile. The border is done with Trimond by Beth Snoderly, and in the center is Tootle by Jennifer Hohensteiner. The second thing I completed was making a new cabinet for the jewelry I make, but that's a story for a different blog.. LOL.  The next thing that I completed in the way of Zentangle goes what Day Four of the six week course. In keeping with the previous day, I used string #004 and the three daily tangles were Shattuck, Nipa, and Jonqual. Thanks for stopping by. Please leave a comment.

February 15 & 16

This tile was inspired by a Joey's Weekly Challenge. The challenge this week is to draw circles, either in a pattern or random, with none overlapping, and each one filled with a different tangle. This tile is for SuzyMosh's  That's New to Me  weekly challenge. This week's random letter was "S". The New-To-Me pattern I selected was Scrumble by Jane Monk CZT.  The second pattern on here is for the group Square One:Purely Zentangle weekly focus. This week's One is Huggins, which is a Zentangle-original tangle pattern from Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas.

I'm finally back! Hopefully it won't be another month or so before I come here to update.  There's been a lot going on, including a wonderful vacation in Arizona! Maybe more about that later. In the meantime, here's a new tile I just finished. It's for  Diva's Weekly Challenge #218 , where we were challenged to use a white gel pen (I used Gelly Roll by Sakura) on black tile (I used an official Zentangle tile).  The tangles I used for this are Mooka and Zinger. I thought maybe that was a little too simple, so I've changed it a bit. Which one do you prefer, the original or this one? And here is black on white! Black Pigma Micron on white 3.5 x 3.5 Zentangle tile. Lightly shaded with regular graphite #2 pencil. And here again I used Mooka and Zinger. Also, some of you know that I also make jewelry. I have entered a contest to win a book about making Vintage style Jewelry . Wish me luck! I'll be back in a couple days w
