Diva Challenge 217 Duotangle

This week's challenge is Duotangle with Dex and Bunzo. I have played with Bunzo a few times, but Dex is a new tangle for me. Considering my fondness for grid tangles, it works for me. Unfortunately, this tile was completed while at the dentist office. Normally, a book would occupy my time, but this helped me focus more and fret a little less...my relatively new bridge had cracked and needed to be replaced. Ugh. Alas, a temporary fix until after Memorial Day weekend. Thankfully, a new challenge will be ready for tackling at the next visit 😅

Diva Challenge #216 - May 4th Be With You

Ooh how fun!  OK technically, its a challenge with 'BRELLA..but who doesn't love a tangle that involves Star Wars? My artistic skills, limited that they are, would not enable me to make a fantastic Chewbacca.  My favorite character in Star Wars.  My mom bought me a stuffed Chewbacca doll (with belt) that I carried around for years.  I think I finally lost him in a move when I was 16.  So sad...hope he found a good home outside of the Millennium Falcon.  Rebellion fan that I am, the completed Death Star is the subject of my challenge.  I am looking forward to all the submissions. 

And I must say, I may have to make more than one this week!

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.

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.
