The slower pace coupled with a permanent station gives me the ability to work on my blog, Zentangle, and watch reality TV that I don't want my husband to know I indulge in! Don't get me wrong, I still love working at my other paramedic job but this new one is a nice change of pace and hopefully will be a nice adjunct to my nursing school schedule starting January.
Last week I asked you all to take a guess at what my next "milestone" and would be and I promised a little gift for the winner. Well, the winning answer, provided by Magda Aurora, was 100,000 page views. So Magda, I will be contacting you shortly to get your address so I can send out your gift.
Then I got to thinking. All the other suggestions were so good that I should acknowledge them all with a giveaway so we will be having giveaways for the following events when they occur:
- The 50th Zendala Dare (I can barely fathom this one)
- When I have a baby (that's a lot of pressure people!)
- 250 followers
- When I have 50 entries on the linky machine within 1 week after the Dare is posted (we are probably pretty close to this one)
- The 1 year anniversary of the Zendala Dare
So now you have a template and a whole lot of giveaways to look forward to!
Zendala Dare #28
This weeks template is pretty straightforward, at least in my opinion. It has a mix of straight and curved lines so it should appeal to most of you.
Tangles: Lotus Pods, Crescent Moon, Purk, Echoism, DL Sunray |
Many times I will try to leave some negative space when creating a Zendala but this template would not allow it! No matter how hard I tried the template kept yelling "No negative space, please not negative space" Let me tell you something, a talking template is a creepy thing so just do what is says and no one gets hurt.
Have a great week and remember to link up below.

ReplyDeleteHow fun! I toyed with the idea of shading in the "eggs" in the middle, but decided I liked the simplicity of it as is.
ReplyDeleteThis was a fun template to do. If I have time, whether I post them or not, may try some others. Will definitely save the template and use later. Thanks for the challenge.

ReplyDeleteI love this template, Erin! I'll definitely be using it again and again =). Woot! for being able to wear yoga pants when you're not on calls -- being in comfortable clothing at work makes such a difference in how a person feels!!
