" A Little Help from a Friend " - Weekly Challenge #22

Here is the Diva's challenge for this week:  "Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to enlist the help of someone other than yourself who will draw the string on your tile or Zentangle Inspired Art."

I like this!  No stress.  String was drawn by my handsome DH of 47 years...and I relaxed into my Zentangle.  Thank you, Laura, for another fun challenge.

Traditional Zentangle using traditional supplies/tools.

...... and the string:

String for above Zentangle.

Happy tangling!

p.s.  Happy Birthday, David!  Love you.

" OoF " - Weekly Challenge # 21

This week the Diva has challenged us to create a Zentangle tile or ZIA using the new Official tangle
" Oof ".... (which was introduced in the Zentangle Newsletter).

For some reason, this pattern has me scratching my head.  I can't seem to wrap my brain around it so that it makes sense... but it sure is fun to play with.  Here, I have used it kinda-like a string.  One single little OoF. 

"OoF" - 3.5" tile; Sakura Micron black #01 & #005

Will keep practicing.....

Happy tangling!

" Royal Wedding" - Weekly Challenge #20

This week's challenge from the Diva is to take inspiration from the recent Royal Wedding and tangle a memory.

Princess Catherine's dress was lovely, and the simplicity of style with lace accent was stunning.  I love lace... and have never thought of 'drawing' or 'tangling' it.... until the Diva's challenge.

So here is my attempt at an interpretation of 'lace'. (*note: my lace is 'hand-made'.  Perhaps, someday, I'll attempt a tangle of  'machine-made'  lace.  Perhaps.)  8-)

Happy tangling!
