This week the newest “official” was released by Zentangle HQ in their latest newsletter: ING. The challenge this week is simple: try the new tangle!
ING was new to me so I first created a reference card for it to go into my tangle-binder.
I create little cards, sometimes with steps, for each new tangle I learn and arrange them semi-alphabetical in a binder.
I use inexpensive white cards and photo sleeves, both easily available here in Belgium from Hema. The cards are the same size as a standard photo and fit perfectly!
Each sleeve can hold 12 cards, 6 on each side, 3 large ones and 3 small ones (which are exactly 1/3 of a full card).
Back to the challenge. For my first tile I wanted to showcase the power of the tangle itself. I think the black background really makes it stand out, surrounded by a Nipa frame.
I did a second one, combining three ING strands, filled with Shattuck and Quabog.
Thank you for visiting and don’t forget to check out the other entries on Diva’s blog!
Very nice tile and what a good idea to make such pretty cards for your step outs.
Merci beacoup, Nat
Ha, een ‘buurvrouw’, altijd leuk!
Ik vind allebei je tiles erg mooi, vooral de eerste, daar blijf ik naar kijken.
Hihi, de wereld is klein. Dank je wel voor je fijne commentaar.
Your first Tile is a delight. Love the purity of the ING pattern and your Nipa frame is a perfect choice. (Love the shading in your Pearls.) Your ING design in the second tile is terrific. Love the interplay of angles, and your small pearl boarders are beautiful. Love your Step Out organizational technique. A wonderful reference book to browse through over and over. Wonderful post.
Thank you David for your lovely comment.
Mooie tiles! De eerste vind ik het mooiste, als ik moet kiezen ;-)
Both your tiles are great. The one with ING on the black makes t totally pop off the page.
Like both, but the first has the biggest WOW! Nicely done!
Wonderful tiles. I especially like the one surrounded by black with the Nippa. I like your organizational system too.
