This can be in any form you wish, faux stitching, hand written or drawn elements on your card, zentangle. As long as you create something with 'ink' by hand
I've often looked at Zentangle and must admit it fascinates me but I've never had a go - so............... here's my effort today. Definitely not perfect but don't think it's too bad for a first try. Might have another go during the week if I've got time. I used a double ended black Sharpie; ultra fine and fine tips. The sentiment is Stampin Up Pocket Silhouettes.
Karen this is great lovely patterns you have created..very eye catching...

ReplyDeleteWell I must say it looks perfect to me.

Ah - you beat me to it - I had planned to bring a zentangle-inspired card for club last week (not finished so won't be appearing on blog yet). Love your card though.
ReplyDeleteIt's very therapeutic! There is a stand of it at Shepton.

Your card is very attractive, there are so many different drawings to see.
ReplyDeleteGreat work!
An interesting zentangle - they are time consuming though and tend to get a bit addictive once you get into them.
ReplyDeleteGreat tangle Karen, well done for trying it!
