A Little Zentangle..


There's some days when I just want to doodle, not have anything special in mind, not worry about coloring inside the lines, or cutting images out.  After a few hours of doodling with no purpose, I just had to do something meaningful.  So I decided to Zentangle (to me this is doodling with structure).  I made this card for my best friend's daughter who is of college age and I knew would like the look.  I was going to stay with just black and white, but decided to add a little red to give it a little more pizzazz.  A little red led to alot more red and then red in the background.  I used the "Funky Double Birthday Cake" digi from http://www.sassycherylsdigis.com/.  This is a great digi for a birthday card.



It came out better than I thought it would when I started.  I think she'll like it.  You have to have patience to Zentangle, a small thing I'm usually short on.  I like the end result but it takes the fun out of doodling because  you're trying to make everything perfect.   Thanks for stopping by to check out my blog.
