A week in pictures...

 Another week has flown by fast as lightning!

Here is some of the creative stuff I worked on this past week...

Joey's weekly tangle challenge #59: Mumsy on black

 I have a hard time with mumsy... Compensated with colors and lots of glittery gelly roll!!

It was fun after all and I like the result despite the tricky mumsy...

Thursday my son will be 7! Incredible as it seems like just yesterday he was a baby!

I have been working on a birthday sign for his door...

Something I did a few years back and it's now a tradition of which I am lately reminded daily by my daughter... The signs stay on the door till their next birthday, so I try my best!!

Finally I got this one done...

I found the animal letters on pinterest... Let's just hope he'll love it even though it's more cute than cool...

The balloons I made with washi tape on paper...

It has been approved by the birthday committee... (Aka my daughter...)

Needlework Tuesday

 I put my Sofie's Universe on hold because I saw these amazing dreamcatchers on pinterest made with a doily. I just really have to try it!

Inside my journal

Last weeks pages in my journal...

And last but certainly not least...

Every Inchie Monday #19: Diagram

This was a tough one... It took a few tries...

But here's my diagram of my Zen...

Back in black...

TACKLE IT TUESDAY, TANGLES STARTING WITH Y AND Z

 

String: I drew a border with loops...

Y-ful power, a new tangle I have seen used so many times, never getting around to trying it, so thank you!

Yomaho, I think I've already learned another tangle that is very much like this one...

Zopfe, a new tangle I learned for the tangled thursday biweekly challenge...

Zinger, well known...

Zilly, much like Zinger...

Zescen, great tangle, very nice to draw...

And yesterdays creativeness...

New "challenge" from madebyjoey...
 

"Inside my sketch book..."

 Every friday Joey will share pages from her sketch book and she invites us all to join in...

I don't really have a sketch book (all though I am planning on making a cut-n-paste one as Joeys have done.) So for this (or last week, I fininshed the pages yesterday but the content was made last week.) I will share my tangle-journal/diary...

 Whatever I drew during the past week is put in between the pages of my journal. Then I finish 2 pages for each week during the weekend... (Or whenever I find the time/feel like it...) Using some of the tiles/drawings I made and some pretty paper. Then I write or draw/tangle or watercolor...

I usually have a lot more stuff than I have room for on two pages. So I layer it all and make sure almost everything can be lifted to see what's hiding underneath.

Sometimes I make a pocket on a page or glue two pages together to make a pocket for storage.

Under this first tile I wrote about a book I read last week and under the second I wrote a little story about how my son takes after me...

I tangled a little here and there with new tangles I learned last week...

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...

Happy Valentines Day...

 Valentines Day is not really a day we celebrate in Denmark...

All though the stores try their best to make it so. There's all kinds of hearty-things for sale... Don't they just wish they could make a moneymachine out of that day too...

Well, I guess it's kinda getting to me... Little hearts have sneaked their way into my work today, turning everything into Valentangles... <3

Now hang on, because I was so in the zen zone today... Here we go...

It's A String Thing #79

String: #76

Tangles: Buttercup - Puf - Pozer - Inapod

Great challenge. Inapod is now a new favorite of mine.

This is only my 3rd zendala, but I'm really loving this way of tangleling...

Diva's #204: Valentangle

This is actually my second submission as I really was not happy with the first one, I decided to give it another go. I like this so much better!
I went all in on pink and hearty tangles...

I really, really love drawing with these... The little dots are so perfect... I need to get me some black tiles!
