Hi all
Today I hope you'll have found your way here via Suzannes Blog, Snaps and Snippets. If not, and you've got lost along the way, you'll find the whole list of participants below.
Today my LO has no layers! ... Wowee that was harder than I thought!
As you will see, this is VERY different for me, as I have had a go at Zentangle! Now, don't judge me on my tangle.. it was only the second attempt I'd had at it, and it took me ages to do a whole 12 x 12 to fill it in... I know I have a long way to go, but I've got the book now and I can only get better!
But anyway... here it is, no paper layering, simply doodling, a photo of my daughter in laws wedding bouquet and the title.
I played with adding some other embellishments...but tbh, I like it enough as it is without confusing it with more embellishments.. so although it's completely and utterly different and I'm rather pleased with it now... although to begin with I wasn't too sure about it!
The idea was also inspired by a challenge over on the 'White with One' blog where I was challenged to create a LO with White and Liquorice only.. well I think you can say I've done that here!
Thanks for stopping by, do continue on the journey and hop on over to Lesleys Blog to see what she's been up to... here's the whole list of participants too in case you get lost along the way.
Happy Hopping!
Had a go at zentangle - you look like a pro to me - scares me as does the one layer challenge but you've rocked it :)
ReplyDeleteOh thanks.. I was a little worried about sharing it in case you all thought it was rubbish!
DeleteWow that is fantastic I could never have done that zentange in a month of Sundays. It certainly makes the photo pop and yes the title did need a backing to make it show up. well done you, no layering would have scared me to death
ReplyDeleteAww.. thanks Mary! That means a lot. x
DeleteAwesome tangling Elaine - you've done a great job, so don't knock it! A beautiful counterfoil to the bouquet - and a lovely page for your album.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm feeling better about it already
Deleteoooh zentangle! we love zentangling! you should have a look at some of my mam's work... she loves this style :) jx
ReplyDeleteAmazing patience, Elaine! And beautiful layout! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeletewow, that zentangling is amazing! totally brilliant and nothing I would have the patience to do so I'm in awe. It's the perfect background for that beautiful photograph - such lovely flowers. Thanks so much for sharing and you should be very proud!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful layout wow you rocked the 1 layering challenge. I haven't thought about this technique you make it took so cool!
ReplyDeleteThe intricacy of that background certainly stands in for several layers. Great idea.
ReplyDeleteMy comment just got lost in cyberspace! Love your tangle it's a perfect frame for the wedding bouquet.
ReplyDeleteAwesome page, and the tangle is gorgeous on its own. Fantastic take on challenge 1.

amazing zentangle. love u'r take on the challenge. though u'r LO is sort of one layered, the zentangle in itself gives it so much dimension. beautiful work.

ReplyDeleteYou are a natural at the tangle!
Amazing how soft it reads even though it is stark b/w!
Shows up your photo amazingly :D
that's super cool! You rocked the one layer... I really stuggled with it.. .but got it in the end...I think! LOL
ReplyDeleteOh wow! I really must have a go - this is fab!

Wow, if this is just your second try, you are sure going to be at the head of the tangle troupe in no time. And the B&W background really lets the photo shine. A+
ReplyDeleteSorry I'm so late getting around this hop!
ReplyDeleteWow! I've done small tangles in the past and got bored, this must have taken you ages! It really packs a punch, great work.
Looks great and you have far more patience than I would! Thanks for joining us at WW1.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful job with the challenge-and a great layout!
