Greeting Fellow
Tanglers!
This week at over at i am the diva the challenge is a UMT, use my tangle, featuring Amphora by
ZenLilyMoon. I had a bit of a break this past week after getting through parent
teacher conferences at school. A whole crew of us oldsters with a few youngs
thrown in, went north skiing, for a long weekend. A good time was had by all,
and we all came back with no major injuries! Here we all are at the top,
overlooking Lake Superior. It was a beautiful sunny day, something that we have
been lacking lately.

I used a ATC that I had received
from Michele Wynne, one of the traveling tangles, to do this week’s diva
challenge. I did make the mistake of going way to small, but I think that I
managed to save it with a few white additions.
I couldn't find the photo of Michele’s start. (Frown)
But you can see it here in Michele's Blog.
It is the top right hand one in the group of six.
I decided that I wanted
to try it again but a little larger, and pulled out a tile from Heidi Whitney
another of my Travelling tangle friends. This is a sweet bijou sized tile. I
really like it much better bigger, and I can see that this is a tangle that will be used
again. Both of the tiles for this challenge were colored using the tissue paper
dying method.
Heidi’s start.
Finally finished the
last Travelling tangle from Stephanie, at everything is art. I decided to break
out the Copic markers and add a bit of color, as we have been having quite a
few gray days and I am craving some sun and some color.
Stephanie's start.
I have found that working on others starts a challenge but a fun one! I do have to ponder what I am going to do a bit, but am getting better at just jumping right in.
Thanks for stopping by,
and for all of your lovely comments!
They do make my day!
Have a great week and
Tangle on!
I agree, the larger scale really works. And the last tile, looks like liquorice all sorts - fun! delicious!
