Zentangle over load!!!!

I have been a little side tracked over the last couple of day's but here is the sneeky lookie at some ATC's I have ready for a swap.... I am really finding these relaxing to do and I at the mo that's a good thing.... so as you can see there are plenty... and more still happening...


These ones are also up for a swap on UKS....



I was asked to explain the process of how I come up with my doodles and if I had any templates, well I don't actually have a template it's just a basic technique I use as I am still learning, so I have put a little how to together of how I get started.....

This is How I Zentangle.... (hope this makes sense)...

a) I start by placing a dot in each corner of my chosen paper/card...


b) I then just join the dot's how I want to... (you can just free hand draw a base pattern without the dot's but I am still learning my self so what ever you want to do to make a base pattern will work)

c) Then it's doodle time, use any pattern you like to fill in the spaces that you have made by joining the dot's...

d) Hey Ho you have ZENTANGLED!!!!

Well I hope this help's and sorry if I have confused you more, please google this as there is loads of information out there and some fab pieces of work to help get inspiration but at the end of the day it's your own doodle!!!!

Busy! Busy! Busy!

I have been so busy since dad in-law came out of hospital on Saturday, he has on-going medical need's so have had plenty to sort out for him now he's home ... and I think he is going to need extra help too but that is something to think about!!! But to unwind when I get home I have been Zentangling and it is very addictive!!! it has surprised me how relaxing it is just to sit and doodle and what with everything that is going on at the mo it is just the ticket....

I have made 6/10 ATC's in readiness for a swap over on UKS (hopefully it will get the go ahead soon) ... Sorry no pic's but want to keep them a surprise... maybe I'll post a sneeky peek tomoz when I have a little more time...

It is very Addictive

I think maybe I have become slightly addicted to Zentangles.... I started this one at my local crop but due to a phone call I didn't get to play very long (had to pick dad in-law up from hospital)... so with dad all settled back at home, I finished playing and added some colour to this one, think it tured out ok would love your opinion.....



Havin fun with these doodles, Thanks frances look what you have started :0)...

Carried Away!!!

I think I got carried away with my doodles (zentagles) last night and ended up making a couple of Atc's, I have a 3rd on the go but thought I'd share the two that are finished... Hope you like!!

Well I have a Dentist appointment today which I am not looking forward to very much (I have a Dentist phobia).... Do ya think I can doodle while I'm havin a check up lol lol....

Zentangle!!!

I have been doodling since I can remember and it's usually while on the phone but have just discovered something while taking part in an ATC swap (Frances aka New2This) ZENTANGLES, I had to google this to find out more, very fascinating... I feel more doodles coming on :0)...

Think I should have used a different note pad but thought this wasn't to bad for an attempt at a Zentangle to show what I came up with tonight...

Circle Journal's

I kinda want to take part in another journal because I enjoy taking part in them but since my last Circle Journal never made it home to me, I am havin a bit of a moment to wether I join another!

This Cj should have come home in Oct/Nov '09 so it has been a while, do I just take the plunge and have another go??

I guess this is something to think about, mind you this is the 2nd Cj to missing..... heavy thinking!!
