Monday again?? That can't be right!

Tackle it Tuesday

I came by a tutorial by Lynn Mead on dewdrops on pinterest and just went for it...

I think it takes a little practice... But I guess it's ok for a first try... 

String #6

Pea-fea, Zonked, Beadlines

Zendala Dare #2

Having fun with the old zendala dares while waiting for a new one...

This was a really great template!

Maryhill, Rick's Paradox, Fasset, Beadlines

I love Maryhill, it's so beautiful, though I find it hard to fit it into a tile...

But this circular center was calling for Maryhill...

I love it when it just draws itself!

Inside my journal...

Last weeks pages in my journal...

 Last week's Tackle it Tuesday's tile is hiding out underneath Zendala dare #1...

Under two tiles is a note about a book I read this week and notes about our week...

 Every Inchie Monday #18: Leopard

That's not much to show for an entire week!

It seems I will be working overtime for at least the next week too...

If only there were more hours in a day...

...And more days in the weekend...

Who ever decided that we work 5 days and have only 2 days off,

when the opposite would be so much more fun?!

Scratch that...

The Diva's Weekly Challenge #206: "Tools/Trade"

 "This week's challenge is to try using tools or materials you've never used before for tangling."

 How perfect that I today received a package from Amazon containing black tiles and some scratch tiles too...

The scratch tiles I saw someone use on a blog, do not remember who or where, but I really wanted to try this. Also it was something I knew would drag the kids away from their ipads and do something creative for a while...

Black tiles I haven't tried tangling before. Only some scraps of black paper last week when I bought some white gelly rolls.

So my submission for this weeks diva challenge is these two...

Wavy border, Locar, Maryhill, Poke-leaf, Tipple

Inaura, Inapod, Poke-leaf, Eke

Drawing white on black was very enjoyable. Luckily the pack I bought contains 75 tiles, so I'll be playing more with that.

The scratch tile was really fun to do. I remember loving thise as a child.

For the next one I'll dig out a knitting needle and see if the lines can be cleaner with that. The nib on the little stick that came with the pack is rather thick and makes very uneven lines when drawing round...

My daugther did some flowers and hearts on hers. My son scratched his name and then proceeded to scratch off all of the black... That's my boy, so thorough...
