Diva Challenge #215 - Labyrinth

The challenge this week was to draw a labyrinth for the string.  Thank goodness for the tutorials or I may never have made it through the challenge. After many practice attempts, I finally made one I felt would tangle well.  I will save the others for future strings.

Made by Joey #57

Discovered the Made by Joey challenge after she commented on one of my posts.
Here is my first entry for her blog challenge.  The tile was a string made from markings in the sand.

Amanda Day - Diva Challenge #214

In celebration of Amanda Day (Earth Day) here is my Diva Challenge #214.  We cut trees down 2 years ago, but the one in our front yard still has a stump that is 7 feet tall.  It has sprouted new branches and I call it my CHIA (pet) tree.  I want to buy the old man face and make it look like a mini version of the ticket tree from the Stub Hub commercials...




Not my favorite tile, but I am sending it anyway.  It is the first time I have used a color other than black.

Diva Challenge #213 - Random Stencil String

The Diva's Challenge this week was to use random objects to create our strings. I used 2 pieces from my office.  An Autobot decal too small for my car and correction tape dispenser. 

Here is my string inspiration:


And the resulting tile:

Diva's Weekly Challenge #212-Fanz

I wish every vacation started with getting off the plane, grabbing our golf clubs and playing 18 holes before we even checked into our resort. We are back home and getting ready to gear up for our busy work season.  I used this week's challenge to refocus on our upcoming season and transition from vacation mode to work mode.  I really enjoyed Fanz (for the first time, yet again).  I love the endless variants for this tangle and look forward to seeing how everyone will incorporate it into their submissions.
