Diva Challenge is Stripes!!!

This week Laura Harms challenged us to use stripes.

For the past three years I have faithfully tangled my 

Carole Ohl Tangle A Day calendar.

This week, with time constraints, this worked best for me.

Stripes show up a lot in my calendar.

And I love the option of trying new tangles in each day's box.

Thank you Laura for a fun challenge and the opportunity to share

Carole Ohl's brilliant calendar.

Auraknot and Bunzo

It is Diva Challenge time again!

Sometimes Laura (the Diva) takes her challenges a bit to seriously.

And so, we have to take them seriously.

These two tangles, Auraknot and Bunzo were difficult for me to

"meld" together.

I love Auraknow, love the process of drawing it and love the result.

Maybe I will give this another go later in the week.

Carole Ohl's "tangle a day"

I treated myself to  Carole Ohl's "tangle a day" calendar for 2012.   This is so much fun for those who enjoy the Zentangle (a registered trademark) art form.  I am not a Certified Zentangle Teacher but was fortunate enough to take a class in Zentangle.  I was hooked.  As you know, I follow the Diva Challenges religiously.  This calendar is another way to enjoy your Zentangle daily.  There are several ways to use the Calendar.  I have been entering a tangle a day but on '19,20,21 I had a single string running through all three days.  It is a wonderful way to practice my tangles, try new tangles and remember to old ones hidden in tangle books filed away in drawers.  I ordered my calendar directly from Carole Ohl at 'openseedarts.blogspot.com' but it can be ordered from greydenpress.com/store/.
Treat yourself!
