Diva Challenge #83 - Mooka and Assunta

Oh, Laura - challenge indeed!!  I love mooka, but have had real difficulty with assunta.  I'd decided to "skip" this week's challenge, but it's been niggling in the back of my mind all week. Of course, in seeing other people rise to the challenge (quite literally), I realized my reservations about assunta were fairly common.  So, my goal today was to power through it.... after going to buy some new school supplies, checking in at Michaels to get new Sakura pens, visiting a dollar store, enjoying the Teacher Appreciation Day at Staples, making lunch, doing laundry, playing FarmVille.... basically anything to help me avoid it!  I finally sat down and made myself do it.  I must say, I didn't find it as frustrating as I'd expected.  Just like usual, procrastinate, build it up in my mind, only to find out that it's not as bad as I thought :)  Challenge complete!

Diva Challenge #82 - Brayd

The challenge this week is a UMT (Use My Tangle) and the tangle to use is Brayd, by Michele Beauchamp.  In honour of the "use my tangle" theme, I also included my tangle Flourish in the background.  Kept it pretty simple this week - not feeling tangle-icious today.  Perhaps I'll try another one later on this week :)

Brayd, Flourish

Angel Fish

So I've skipped the Diva Challenge this week because I can't seem to get the UMT design down pat!  I've tried another new one though - I attempted to use Angel Fish (as posted on tanglepatterns.com) a Fescu/Dragonair-inspired design from Marizaan van Beek.  In her steps for the design, she showed how she infused Sanibelle with it, and of course, I love Sanibelle... so I had to try it too!  Turns out, I love how the tile turned out and had to share!
