Weekly Challenge #126: "Stencil Fun" #2


This week's Diva challenge was to tangle with a stencil. This was indeed a challenge for me as I had no stencils. So I improvised and used the handles of my scissors as my stencil. I ended up with a fan-like string. 

Here is my second entry: 


Tangles used were: Golven, Waves, Inapod, Coaster, Arc Flower, Ixorus, and Por Fin.

Weekly Challenge #126: "Stencil Fun"


This week's Diva challenge was to tangle with a stencil. This was indeed a challenge for me as I had no stencils. So I improvised and used the side of a plastic basket as my stencil. I ended up with a grid string and decided to make it weave tangles through it. 

Here is my entry:



Tangles used were: Piza, Palrevo, Z-Trik, Fang, Love Line, Coaster, Snugz, Girlande, Fancy Nancy, and Arckles.

This is the string I used from the plastic storage basket:

Weekly Challenge #123: "Guest Post: Is it a Zentangle?"


The challenge for this week is: can you do a Zentangle without using existing patterns or tangeleations* of them? And what are your experiences while doing so? 

Wow, this was interesting.  I spent a while thinking about what that actually means.  My interpretation of this assignment is to create a Zentangle without any known tangles.

My entry for this week:

Weekly Challenge #122: "Grid (un)Locked"

This weeks challenge from the Diva is to use a grid seed from Rick and Maria's Zentangle Newsletter or come up with your own.  I decided to come up with my own.  I actually came up with three.  It was fun.

The first one, Thor, I used two variations of in the tile.  Guess which movie I saw the pattern in.  =) The second one on the bottom I called Webbed,.  The third I haven't come up with a name for it.

Here is my entry:
I hope you like it.
