Weekly Challenge #73: UMT v.V: Bridgen

I think this might be another challenge I have to do more than once, 'cause I. LOVE. BRIDGEN. And I sure do love those danglies. Technically, I don't think they'd qualify as a tangle pattern, but they're so... happy. I may never do another tile without them. :oD

Update: I know I'm breaking some serious Zentangle rules here, but I lean pretty hard toward whimsical/cutesy ALL THE TIME and I've been dying to ignore the rules (no up or down, no representational art) and really have some fun with this pattern. So I threw in a few of my favorite things, and threw the rules out the window.

Just this once.

Weekly Challenge #72: "Tanglation Nation - Crescent Moon"

I had buckets o' fun with this weekly challenge. 

I learned how to draw Crescent Moon early on, and I didn't realize until recently that I was drawing it wrong. Yes, yes, I know there are no mistakes in Zentangle... but I can tell you that my crescent moon looks much better now than it used to. 

Because it was WRONG. ;o)

I could do this challenge every day until the next one surfaces. Thanks to Laura, as always, for the adventure!

 I was inspired by the little dangly things I've been seeing in Tangleville, so I test drove a few... gotta say, they're reeeally fun to draw.

Very soon I'll be kicking off a two-week contest for a free tangle jar, and once I get that under way we can get going on a bookmark swap. Keep an eye on facebook for info. Can't wait! I hope whoever gets mine likes those little dangly things, 'cause I am ALL OVER THAT. 

:oD
