Squares and curls

Just practising some golden oldies: Yincut, Paradox and Betweed.

Diva’s challenge #357

Laura asked for a Paradox monotangle, I decided to keep it plain and simple :-)

Joey’s challenge #192

Joey drew us a tubular or log-like 3D string and likes us to use Paradox. I drew this pattern yesterday for the Diva challenge, so I wanted to do it differently. Luckily I got some great inspiration of Michele Wynne’s entry for that challenge, so thank you, Michele! I dedicate this starry night to you :-)

Next to Paradox you see Fassett and Hamail. 

Diva challenge #342

Laura is challenging us to create a Duotangle with two lovely patterns: Paradox and Bunzo. I hadn’t drawn these two for some time, so I was pleased to get started. 

Thank you for visiting my blog! You’re comments always brighten my day :-)

Square One: Dreamdex

For Facebook's group Square One, we're focussing on Dreamdex (a new to me tangle). I needed some time to get the flow, but I quite like the pattern. 

Here you see it with Flux and Fescu, and Paradox as the odd man out ;-)

Diva challenge #301

We're doing a DuoTangle for the Diva challenge this week and we're using Paradox and Diva Dance. An inspiring combination!

Thank you for visiting my blog, you're comments are always much appreciated :-)

Joey's challenge #143

Joey gives us a holiday theme with a 'finish my tile' challenge starting with Verdigogh. I drew some festive elements to it:

Joey's challenge #130

Joey created a new 'finish my tile' challenge with Tipple in the corners. In the middle, I drew three lines of Ping and filled some spaces with Munchin and Paradox. Thank you for another nice challenge, Joey!

Joey's Challenge #126

I'm back home from some lovely holidays in the Southern States of the USA - we had a great time visiting Atlanta, Dollywood :-), Nashville, Memphis and New Orleans (just before the rain kept pouring down... :-( Take care everybody!).

So now I'm back on tangling - I've missed it, but was too busy creating memories ;-)

I'm glad to participate in Joey's challenge. She likes us to finish her tile on which there is 1 tangle. Nice idea! Het drew Paradox on the left side of the tile, I finished it off with another Paradox top right and Crescent Moon. It was fun!

Stacked tangles

Today, I felt like stacken. So, this happened with Paradox, Up N Down, Sevaw, Skye, Tipz and a little bit of Zedbra :-)

Diva's challenge #271

Beads of Courage is an arts in medicine program in Canada that helps kids with chronic or life threatening illnesses tell the story of their medical journey.

I really support this initiative!

So, I was pleased to see Laura's challenge: BEad INSPIRED by Beads of Courage. Although I also love colours, and support the Colour Run too (read more about this at Laura's blog), I decided to keep my challenge tile in black and white. Somehow, that's my favorite zentangle modus ;-)

Thank you for visiting my blog! You're comments always brighten up my day :-)

Playing with Croissant

Croissant is a pattern I didn't use before, but I love it! I put some Paradox and Fescu around it:

Playing with string #210

I like to look at the new strings at TanglePatterns.com from time to time. The newest string at this moment is #210 (!). I filled it with Paradox, Crescent Moon, CanT and Camelia.

White on black

It's been a while since I've last made a black tile with white ink on it. Paradox and Crescent Moon look so different! :-)

It's a String Thing #128

For Adele Bruno'schallenge, we're using string 129 and the tangles Hypnotic and Paradox. Nice!

Zenuari day 3: New to me

Today's prompt is to use tangles that are new to me. I used Plop, Bala and Wedge. And added a (not new to me ;-) ) little Paradox in the top right corner.

Not completely satisfied with the composition, but it was nice to try out new patterns. I liked Plop (bottom right) the most :-)

Sundoo string

Sundoo is the pattern I used as a string, and I filled it with Paradox, Kozy, Jemz, Marasu, Kiss and Mr. E.

Square One: Paradox

The Square One Facebook-group asks us to focus on the pattern Paradox. My version ended up on a bed of Inapods:

Diva's Weekly Challenge #187: Blind String

This week the challenge is to draw a string with our eyes closed. I decided to try and keep the string simple - in order to get not too many tiny sections. It's very nice to discover what you end up with, after opening your eyes :-)

I used Flux, Fife, Paradox and Inapod. Not sure if Paradox fits in with the other tangles, but that's how it goes ;-)

Here you can see the original string:
