JAILED JOHNNY, INCHIE 'CATHEDRAL', and TWINCHIE, 'FEATHERS'

Weekly Challenge #153: UMT v.24
'Jailed Johnny' by Sadelle Wiltshire, CZT

   So when I first read the title of this tangle I wasn't sure what it was gonna look like. I like the name, but my head was just in ponder of what it would look like. (Poor Laura, had a migraine so she was not able to use this tangle on her blog to show us an example of it used. Laura, I hope you are feeling better! I am so surprised you could even do a Monday post!.......Your dedication is amazing!)
   So back to poor Jailed Johnny. What did he do in the first placed to go to jail? These are things I'm thinking about before I even had seen the breakdown of this tangle. So right away I'm thinkin' I gotta Set Johnny Free!!! And so here is my Jailed Johnny,...........Set Free!!

   Please don't forget to go and check out all the other entries! Oh and you must go to Sadelle's blog The Tangled Pumpkin, to see her other tangle Pop-Pop! I really want to give that one a try too! Oh, and keep up with my posts because I am finally going to be posting my own tangle! Hopefully in time for Valentine's Day! It won't be linked to the Diva's challenge so check back in a couple days! 
Anywho, have a great week!!

Thank you to all, who visit and leave a token of Kindness!!

'Cathedral'

   Back in the year 2005, my husband, both my parents, and I were able to take a trip to Italy. It was an amazing trip!! And yes, there are Cathedrals everywhere!! The one that stood out and what inspired me for this week's challenge, though, was Cattedrale di San Rufino di Assisi! (please click on name of cathedral and take a peak at this extraordinary cathedral)  Man, if I only knew about Zentangle back then!! San Rufino has inspiration inside, outside, everywhere for Zentangle!(It's funny how some things just stand out in our memories, more than others. And I wonder, if I went back there, if it would be just as impressionable as it was then,...?) Anyways, here is my depiction of cathedral.
This is called the Rose Window of Saint Rufino Cathedral (click on image to enlarge)
It was very difficult to get all the fine detail into this Inchie, so it was the best I could do!

Have a blessed and happy week!!

Weekly Challenge
'Ballet'

   OK, don't give me a hard time for my choice of a picture for 'Ballet', butt, (hahaha, no pun intended), being that I am a massage therapist, I always watch ballet dancers with such intensity! I am amazed at their muscle control and love watching how the muscles are put to use. I guess you could say the kinesiology of ballet, is phenominal!!!! So this was my 'quick' attempt at trying to portray ballet, for this weeks challenge!
   Please don't forget to take a peak at all of the other fabulous entries! The Inchie world is growing, so why don't you join in the fun!!!! 
   Thank you to all who left messages on my post last week! XO's. I know I didn't get to leave messages on all of your blogs, I tried! Some weeks are a little crazier than others and it seemed to be an overwhelming one!

'Idols'

   This was kind of hard for me, because I am not a person that really has movie star idols! But there are amazing people in the world that have done great things, so I kind thought I would go with that!!

But we can do small things with Great LOVE!!"

Ok, please don't be to hard on me with this portrait, but I have never done portraits before . So this is the best I can do!!
(it really is hard to create wrinkles!)
With that in mind, 
may the rest of your week be blessed!!

MOEBIUS SYNDROME AWARENESS, INCHIE 'BROWN', and TWINCHIE 'GLASS'

Weekly Challenge #151: String Theory
Moebius Syndrome Awareness

   Moebius Syndrome is a congenital nerve disorder affecting cranial VI and VII nerves controlling the lateral movement of the face. Moebius is a spectrum disorder - so some cases are more severe than others. Our dear friend Laura from I Am the Diva CZT, has a son, Artoo, who suffers from this disorder. She is focusing this Weeks Challenge on the Awareness of this Syndrome. I think this is a great idea and a wonderful way to let people, in the world, become aware of all of our differences. And yet embrace those differences!!
   This is my first time with the Diva's Weekly Challenges to know and learn about Moebius Syndrome! Thank you, Laura for making me aware!!! Your little Artoo is a bright, wonderful, and happy little boy!!! He and his brother remind me of my two boys. They are best buds!! Whenever you share pictures with us, he exudes 'happiness'!!!! So 'You keep on Smiling Artoo'!!!! xo's
Laura, I'm donating this to MSAD if it can be used with/for anything it is yours!
I love your passion!!
