Hello to all.
We are into a great stretch of beautiful weather here on my island. I hope that you are enjoying the spring where you call home as well.
Todays share was created with the inspiration of our esteemed leader. I was spending some time on the Stamping and Blogging site.....fabulous I must say, and I happened upon a video Sandi did a while back using the Zentangle technique. I have been wanting to play with this for some time now so....away I went.
This is sooooo much fun. I could spend a day playing and can see a picture book of my own happening. It sure opens up a new world of design. Here I have a closer view for you.
I tried a few different "tangles" , I think that is what the designs are called. And of course popped a flower inside as well.
I left the art piece pretty basic as I didn't want to take away from the flower designs. The sentiment is a "oops" ..from the set Peaceful Petals.... There is always one that gets left in the current area.
Please let me know what you think, I would love to hear from you. Here is the sketch we had for this week and again I hope you will play along with us on the Sketch and Stamp site. the link is right after the sketch.
Here are the links for all the products I used today .
And our sketch....
And now off to see what these talented ladies have in store for you today. Have fun.
Should you need a demonstrator I would love to be yours. Just drop me a line or give me call.

Oh wow, would never have thought to do that with the flowers, what a fab and fun idea.

you little zentangling fool, your card is absolutely lovely and I agree, that technique is totally addictive....
