Zen in the sun...

It's here! 
The sun, the heat... Summer... Finally...
Just as we were about to give up hope it arrived.
So I had a little zen in the sun, and some of it with my trusty microns...
 
 
B-string with B-tangles...

A B to see... Get it? I'm so witty when it's this late... ;)

B-string with a whole lot of B-tangles is how I tackled Tuesday this week...
Be Vee, Bales on a string, Borbz, Btweed, Buttercup, Beadlines and two more that were new to me along with Be Vee, but I cannot remember the names right now...
Added some dangles as all the white space inside the B were poking at my eyes... I also tried for a drop shadow, something I think looks so amazing when I see it done, but man, it is hard to get just right.

I'm already contemplating how to attack next weeks C-string...

Tripoli - Tearce - Tracery

These were all new to me. I have seen Tearce used several times and really liked the look. I like it even more now that I have tried it.
Tripoli is so versatile I will also be using that again for sure.


Inside my journal
Last weeks entry in my journal.
The backing paper is a paperbag that came with some washi tapes I bought on ebay. I thought it was cute so I put it to use.

That's new to me...

That's new to me #1

The "That's new to me!" weekly challenge is new to me...
I love learning new patterns, great idea for a challenge...

I surfed right over to tanglepatterns and found a new to me tangle starting with the letter T, which is this weeks promt...

Tearce is what I fell for and I really like it...
Also sneeked in my favorite, which coincidently also is a T tangle; tipple...
I tried really hard to make a light and airy tile as I always seem to fill every empty space... I think I succeded...


And in the spirit of using my good stuff... I used an official zentangle tile...
I love them, but my budget says no to US airmailing prices... :|
