Diva's Weekly Challenge #211-FLUX

Thank you Laura for this week's challenge.  That you found time this week to post is amazing.  Best wishes to her and her family.  Newbie that I am, this is the first time I have tangled with Flux and had just finished reading the step out when Laura posted her challenge

A Blog is Born...

I wanted to participate in The Diva's Weekly Challenges, so a blog is born.  As I know nothing about blogs, it will be an interesting learning experience.  Fortunately, my twin brother is a pro.  I will soon bombard him with many texts and phone calls. Of course, I haven't informed him yet...

At the end of February, I paid a surprise visit to my mom in Reno. Thanks to my wonderful husband and above mentioned brother, we were able to keep the visit a surprise. Challenging for me was not posting on FB about visit and the subsequent flight cancellation that begged to be ranted about online.  I survived and Mom was overjoyed.

Mom's house is a craft bonanza.  Always has been.  We would spend hours on the weekend crafting and hanging out.  This visit was no different.  Aided by a skiing tumble, she introduced me to Zentangle®.  And since the introduction, I have been tangling every day.  I tend to craft more with paper and beads, art is my Mom and brother's area of expertise. But here I am, taking this new experience and enjoying every moment.  The methods that turn simple strokes into beautiful creations.  I am hooked.

With that being said, here is the first entry for the Diva Challenge
