Black, white and red

The Diva challenge this week (#272) is to make a tile using black, white and red.  Laura had accidentally picked up her red Micron, instead of the black one, and so she finished her tile with these colours. And she turned her 'mistake' into a challenge - remember no mistakes in zentangle ! It was a nice challenge for me. I make rarely a couloured tile, but now for this challenge is was easy because you only had to use red as an extra colour.  And I payed special attention to my shading here. Here are the patterns I used: Tripoli, Printemps, Sandswirl, Meer, Pea-Nuckle, Pozer, Antidots, Tipple.

zentangled shoes

Yes, I finally dit it ! I tangled some summer shoes for my youngest daughter.  In fact, it were my shoes but she grows up and up and has already the same foot size.  So I told her she could have the shoes, and that I would tangle them, to make them more hip for a teenager.  I hope they last a summer :)

Up to the Skye

This week the "I am the Diva Challenge" #270 is to make a tile using the new pattern (by Margaret Bremner) Skye.  I started a zentangle already in my sketch book last week, but did not finish it.  So, a good opportunity to finish it now.  The pattern gives lots of possibilities and is very nice to shade. Here you can see my result.

You can find the other Skye-tiles that are posted on the Diva website here:weekly-challenge-270.html

I also started to make a tile with the other new pattern that was posted last week: Ellish.  Also a very nice and fluent pattern.  This was last weeks Diva Challenge, but I post it here now.
