Challenge 82 - Using Brayd

I don't always have time to get something posted for the challenges at I am the Diva, but this week, I managed to get a tile done and it's ready to post! This week the challenge was the UMT (use my tangle) challenge, where we are challenged to use a specific tangle.  This week's tangle is Brayd.  I've tried this tangle a time or two, but was never totally satisfied with my results, so I thought I'd give it another try.

So, this is what I ended up with. Very simple and straightforward...just the tangle, Brayd.  There are some really great tangles submitted to the challenge this week...pop on over to I am the Diva and check out all the other entries.

Thanks so much for stopping in!  Come visit anytime!  If you leave a comment, please know that it's much appreciated!  Until next time...

Diva and a Dare Challenges

Here's my entries for two of the weekly tangle challenges.  This first tangle is for the challenge #16 issued by Erin at The Bright Owl blogspot.  Here's the template she's given us this week.

My tile turned out to be about 5 x 5 inches.  Very simple tangles.  Does anyone recognize the scalloped tangles on the four petals?  I thought I'd drawn a new tangle, but I'm not sure if it's already out there and I just don't know it.  I've posted my directions at the end of this post.

This second tangle is also about 5 x 5 inches and was drawn using this template that Erin from The Bright Owl provided for the Diva Challenge this week.  

I'm not sure of all the tangles I used on this one...just went with the flow.  I really liked how this one turned out.

Here's the steps to the tangle that I'm calling "Fanz".  If anyone know whether this has already been put out there by someone else, please let me know. It's a great "fill in" tangle and I think I'll be using it often.

That's it for me today.  Thanks a million for stopping by! Until next time.....

Challenge 74 - Eccentric Circles

The challenge this week at I am the Diva is to create a tile using eccentric circles (meaning not having a common center) and not perfectly round...okay, I can draw some not quite round circles!  I ended up using a mono tangle (striping) for my tangle....with that one small exception...can you see it?

I might just do another before the week is out, but right now, this is my "eccentric circles" tangle.  If you'd like to see some of the other gorgeous work in the challenge, just pop on over to the challenge blog and take a peek at some of them!

Thanks a million for stopping by!  Your comments are always appreciated and they most definitely brighten my day!!  Until next time...

Hugs!
