Diva Challenge #136, New Facebook Group for Tanglers

The Diva asked for color this week. Color she got:



I used Copics, my black Micron, and a purple Sharpie.
Tangles = Henna Drum, Squid



There is a new group on Facebook for people who like to use templates to add their tangles.  Ornate Animal Illustrations. I have done two so far. One in black and white and the second one has color added. Can you tell I am taking an online class from Strathmore with the background? They have free classes. Right now, I'm taking the one with Jane LaFazio and Joanne Sharpe and they both recommend a background border:

    1. I know you meant, Jean, Susan. After you look at so many of them it's easy to forget whose you're looking at :) I do appreciate your comments and that class is just a lot of fun too. Let me know if you have found any other great FREE online classes!

  6. Like your top tile. Reminds of something that could be a print on a wall covering.

    1. Thank you Donald. I have been looking at a lot of fabric prints lately that use some of our tangles. I think it works well in a lot of applications. Just because tangles can be so beautiful.
