I admit, I tried to avoid the Zentangle craze, but then I saw Sandy Bartholomew's article in Cloth Paper Scissors
, and then checked out the Tangle of the Week on her blog. Next thing I know, I'm making Zentangle ATCs, though I wasn't able to keep to just black & white!
Another great source for design ideas is Molossus' blog Life Imitates Doodles, which provided inspiration for the Gem card below left:
The one on the right above was embossed metal, and I'll definitely have to try some on the sewing machine since there's a strong doodling link between the tangle patterns and the free-motion stitching I learned from Diane Gaudynski. In the meantime, it's ink pens & Twinkling H20 watercolors for me!

Yes, I've tried zentangles, but yours are spectacular!!! The addition of the color really makes them fabulous! Hugs, Terri xoxo
You're getting through your 'to do' list faster than I am, lol!
I do love what you're doing with the zentangles. You've got a bold, sassy style the produces lively work!
Thanks, everyone, for stopping by and leaving kind comments.
@Christine - just to warn you, the tangles are addictive ;o)
@Terri - I think you know we can't leave these things uncolored :D
@Molossus - thanks so much (and I only got the bloggin' done because I was procrastinating the housework! :o)
These are fantastic, Carolyn, and I'm very proud to say I own a couple! :D LOVE your use of Twinklling H20s! :D
Aw, thanks, Mel! *blush* :D
