Just wanted to mention . . .

I've been reading through quite a few blogs lately

and I've noticed a trend ~ unhappiness.

I don't know if it's the weather, economy, or who knows.

I would love to pass around my happy thoughts ~

so to all of you who are willing to accept them ~ here they are!

GOOD VIBRATIONS!

I love this quote . . .

"Don't do anything that you don't really want to do.

Keep yourself in a place of feeling good.

Reach for the thought that feels better -- and watch what happens."

--- Abraham

Have an exceptionally wonderful day!

Now Available

I have had so many people ask me where they can buy my

blank Tangle/Pattern Cards, that I have decided

to sell them through my Etsy Store.

 

The link is to your left or you can just

click through here.

Thanks to all of you who have asked!

Look!

I taught a Zentangle Class a couple of weeks ago
and one of my students, Ginny, sent this card to me.

The egg stamp is from Stamp Francisco
Copic Markers used are E00, E01, E11, E33, E35, E37 for the egg
and W1 for the shadows.
AND, of course, her tangled bird.
What a beautiful ZIA ~ thank you Ginny!

Tangle/Pattern Cards

For quite some time now I have been

using these Tangle/Pattern Cards
as a way to keep my patterns with me.
They remind me of Paint Chips, so . . .
I call them my Zen Chips!


They are very cool! and extremely useful!

front and back

Whenever I find a new pattern I draw the steps
on the back of the card and then recreate
it on the front. I have a line to write the name of the pattern
and a line to write the designer's name.

Challenge #7 ~ Breathe!

If you haven't participated in the Weekly Challenge ~ 

START TODAY!

Go to i am the diva web site and take the plunge!

This week's challenge is ~

"Your challenge, should you choose to accept it - is to create

a tile or piece using conscious, even breath. To Relax. Breathe. Smile."

                                                                                    ~ The Diva

This instantly popped into my head ~ all I could think of while

doing this challenge was all of the pollen coming from

our cedar trees and that because it is so cold you can see your breath,

sometimes making it hard to BREATHE.

The awesome thing about these challenges is that we all

interpret the challenge differently.

By the way ~ you will relax, breathe and then smile!

Cross Advertising!!!

Some of you already know about me and my business Elizabeth's Creations. Elizabeth's Creations has been around since 1998 and like so many businesses, it has changed, grown, evolved over the years.

I know this is my Zentangle Blog, but I am taking liberties here by advertising for ONE of the other "components" of my business which is Quilling and Husking. The other, by the way, is FeltWork.

So . . . without further ado ~

They are finally here!
