Challenge 68 - Stircle & Hybrid

This week's challenge from the Diva, is to use the tangles *Stircle* and *Hybrid* in a zentangle!  I grabbed a couple glasses from the cupboard to make a round string, using the smaller glass to make the three overlapping circles.  It was fun to work in the round.  Thank you Laura for another Duo-tangle Challenge.

Weekly Challenge No. 67 - Amanda Day



This week we are celebrating Earth Day (or Amanda Day as it is called in Mesa diva), so we are creating zentangles or ZIA that honor mother Earth.  Thinking that a Zendala is a good way to feel connected with the earth and with each other I dove into my Zendala tin that came from zentangle and created this tile.  Remembering the red-thread challenge as a few weeks back, I added a red thread to represent how we are all connected in this world, and what we do effects others.  Thanks for a great challenge!


Also of note:  Michelin has come out with a Mandala of their own in the form of a revolutionary tire.  I know it's a tire (guy thing), but what a wonderful Mandala it is.  Who knew that engineers could have such a great sense of style too!  By the way this tire will never go flat.

Weekly Challenge 65 : UMT III


Using CZT J.J. LaBarber's tangle "Huggy Bear" was our challenge for this week.   It was a challenge for me, as I did not yet feel comfortable with it.  I've seen great things done with this tangle in other people's postsIt certainly looks a lot different from it's cousin "Huggins".

To supplement my entry this week I thought I would add some zendala's that I had put on note cards lately.  Hope you enjoy them.

Weekly Challenge: 63 Fengle


A little late is better than never, so I'm catching up with this "Fengle" entry.  Love this tangle, and it looks so different with all it's variations.  This is going into my group of favorite tangles for sure.  

Weekly Challenge: 64 - String Theory VIII - Fortune Teller

This Weeks Challenge I surprised myself - I actually got it done on Monday!!!  It was good to take some time to sit on the porch, enjoy the spring weather and relax doing a zentangle.  This has been a very busy year so far and I missed some tangle time.  I'm hoping that with this challenge my "fortune" has changed and I'll have more peaceful moments to enjoy Zentangle.   Thank you, Laura for a wonderful challenge this week.
