I can’t believe it’s November!

 Even though my county is experiencing a drought life is still good. Trees are still green, the grass is brown with small hints that it was once green, and we have a little cooler weather. I’ll take it!

I was recently in Reading, Pennsylvania attending a 3 day Zentangle retreat, hosted by my good friend Mary Rose Feldman. We learned new techniques, discovered new tools and different ways to use them, and the projects were super fun. 

Needless to say i returned home with more pens and pencils and papers, and frames and a couple of projects to complete. I did have a favorite project, the moving picture. 

So while I was searching my stash for some frames, i found a small one and thought, huh. I wonder if the project would work with a colored tile and fit the frame. I set to work prepping my materials, selecting my tile colors, and removing the back of the frame. Thats a story for another time. 

I was able to complete my tiles and place them in the frame. The project turned out better than I expected. What do you think?


Thank you Mary Rose for another great project.

A Colourful Challenge

Image
I am an early riser. What can I say? Might as well get up and tangle for a while. And that's what I did since I already watched Downton Abbey last night. Good season opener. I didn't want to show the mess I created in the bathroom this morning I submit this tangle as my daily challenge to create something. Daily challenge for Monday I am still having trouble writing 2015 as you can tell by my signature. I need to go back and correct that to TY 15. I also did the challenge from I am the Diva . I had to use the tangle Hitch from HeidiSue. I also used another tangle from HeidiSue called Concert. Hitch within Hitch with Concert in the supporting section! I'm off to work on my tangle*a*day calendar . I am still working on Sundays picture so they might have to run together! Isn't that exciting! And I get to mail my little glitter swaps this morning. Back to the tea party Terri

Feels Like the First Time...

Image
I always liked that song and all the others by Foreigner. This project is first time for me. I have been following Adele Bruno and the It's a String part on her blog. I decided to start working on more tiles instead of a journal so I start submitting my interpretation of tangles, too. I submitted a tangle to Tickled to Tangle . I need to use 3 tangles: Kiss by Katie Booth, Lealad by Lily Moon and Twizted by CZT Terri Brown. I had used Lealad before in a swap and really liked it. The other 2 tangles were new to me so I had fun learning. With a little more practice they will start looking better for me. Submitted for your approval! Today I'm working in the studio getting ready to attend a retreat this weekend. I will still find loads of time to work in a tangle or two between tasks. Have a great day and tangle on! Terri

Bijou Fun

Image
Bijou Tiles Bijou is a little snail (fictional of course) that traveled back from Paris with Rick and Maria. He has delighted in drawing his own tangles in the garden and as a result the perfect 2" tile was born. I had several little Bijou tiles on my desk that were screaming at me to work with them! Please! So I did. I tried out a couple of new tangles on them. But they needed more. So I shaded them. Still not working for me. Light Bulb! Water color pencils! Brilliant! And this is what I ended up with! 3 little Bijou's all in a row. 3 little Bijou's I'm off to work on a dollhouse project with a friend this afternoon and club meeting Saturday! Those are on my other blog . Have a great weekend and create something exciting!
