THE TASTE OF 'TIPPLE'

I Am the Diva CZT

Weekly Challenge #224

"Monotangle: 'Tipple' "

   It was so nice to see that this week's challenge was to use the tangle, 'Tipple'. This tangle just fits anywhere and everywhere. 

   Sunday, I received a recipe from my sister for Chia pudding. It is very much like Tapioca pudding. It is quite yummy! Anyways, when I made it, I looked at it and thought, this looks just like 'Tipple'. Then today I was driving my kiddos to the library and it started sprinkling on my windshield. (Not to get excited about that sprinkle here in CA,....... that's all it was. Just a two minute sprinkle!) Well, as those few sprinkles hit my windshield, they kind of separated into little balls of water. I just had to share this excitement with my kids and say, "Look, there's 'Tipple', again!" So twice I had inspiration coming at me for this week's challenge.

  

   I added some fruit to give it that touch of color. Prismacolor pencils were used for the fruit.

   I can't wait to share with you, all of my endeavors while at my CZT seminar. IT WAS SUCH AN AMAZING ADVENTURE!!! 

   Have an amazing week ya' all!!! 

Thank you, to all of you, for the lovely comments that you share with me!

  Oh, I just wanted to share with you this delicious recipe for Chia Pudding. It also includes the nutritional benefits. Enjoy the taste of 'Tipple'. :0)

NEW OFFICIAL TANGLE-'ARUKAS'

I Am the Diva, CZT

Weekly Challenge #197

New Official Tangle 'Arukas'

   It's so good to have Laura back!! "Laura it is soooooo wonderful to hear that Artoo's surgery is very hopeful! That lil' guy is the cutest and what a brave lil' soul he is too!!! Welcome home!!"

   Laura comes back and gives us a really fun and beautiful new tangle, straight from Zentangle themselves!!! 'Arukas, is, Sakura, backwards!!! (very clever!!) Well, if you are not familiar with Sakura, it is the #1 brand of pen used for Zentangle!!Actually it is the Micron, Sakura that is used most. What an awesome product it is too. Or should I say, all of their products!!

   So in tribute to Sakura, I have used their Gelly Roll Stardust to enhance the effect I wanted for this Zia! It is so much fun to work with!

Just look at how that Stardust shines on the paper!! Too much fun!!

Tangles used: 'Sakura', 'Wud', 'Mooka', 'Doolee Do' and 'SitZen' (If you notice, the angle of this picture, didn't show the sparkle that much.)

   Being that it is the second week of Advent, only two candles are lit. Next week will be the rose colored one!! I just love Advent!!

   I've been trying to bring the cheer and joy of giving into our home and teach my children what Christmas really is about. So every night when we sit down to dinner we light our candles, say Grace, and then each of us share what we did in the day to make someone smile!! It really does put a thought in the kids head, like wow, it actually is something to work at to go out of their way to do something for someone!! And then you have my youngest (4 years old), that says, "Mom, if I just smile at someone, then they smile!!" So really, it doesn't take take too much to make someone smile! 

   Anyway,  my Share Humanity, "One little word,'" is coming to an end with 2014. And I believe, that those little 'smiles' are still one of the best ways to Share Humanity!!

   So, with that said, I challenge all of you to go spread a Smile, and Share Humanity!

NEW OFFICIAL TANGLE 'ING', and INCHIE 'RED'

I Am the DIVA, CZT

Weekly Challenge #184

New Official Tangle: 'ING' by Molly

   This week's challenge is to use Molly's new Official Tangle, 'ING'. It was fun, and it reminded me so much of Origami! I thought later that I should've tried to make a swan out of 'ING'. Maybe I'll give that a try another time. Thank you Molly, for such a fun tangle!

Tangles used; 'ING', 'Paradox', Tipple', and 'Maryhill'

"I JUST WANT TO GIVE A BIG SHOUT OUT, TO ALL OF THOSE WHO TRIED MY TANGLE 'X-DID'!! EVERYONE'S TILES WERE BEAUTIFUL, AND IT WAS SO EXCITING TO SEE HOW CREATIVE EVERYONE WAS WITH IT! THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH AND FOR ALL THE WONDERFULLY FRIENDLY COMMENTS!!!!"

Ps. If you had troubles leaving comments on my blog, I think I have solved the problem. But by doing that, all my previous comments were deleted. So I'm sorry if I don't get back to you if you had left a question. I don't have the original comments. But I think the problem is solved. (I will soon find out.) 

Have a blessed week!

Every Inchie Monday

Weekly Challenge

'Red'

   Sunday night, I was racking my brain, thinking, what am I going to do for this week's challenge?????? Hmmmmmmmm. Well, so coincidental, my kids happened to be watching a movie called 'Hoodwinked!'. It so happens that in the movie, Little Red Riding Hood, is referred to as, "Red". (They didn't end up watching the whole thing, but it was enough to give me inspiration.)

So here is 'Red'.

I actually had a visual in my head of what I wanted to do, but wasn't sure if it was going to turn out. I don't have fabric around my house. So I had to use paper.

   I used my embossing tool and added some shading. Pictures don't really do things justice sometimes, but there really are ripples in her cape.

   Have an awesome week and we'll see you next week!!
