Zendala Dare #44

February is my birthday month and so far I have been blessed with a fabulous surprise party, breakfast at my favorite restaurant on my actual birthday, an impromptu Superbowl/birthday party on the ambulance and tomorrow my girlfriends are taking me to Reno for what I'm sure will be a fun weekend of Scrabble and helping orphans.  Yeah, right.  So this post will have to be short because I still need to finish laundry, pack my suitcase and find my feather birthday boa but I wanted to make sure that you had your Zendala Dare to work on while I was gone!  

Before we get to that I thought I would share what I did for the Diva Challenge.  This week was a UMT (Use My Tangle) challenge and the tangle was Dansk by Margaret Bremner.  I have used Dansk before and what really attracts me to this tangle is the amount of depth you can create.  I like this one in the same way that I like Printemps.  The key to these tangles looking great really lies in the shading.

Tangle: Dansk

Tangles:  Tawk, Tipple, Dansk, Chemystery,
Pystyl, Knightsbridge

Zendala Dare #44

Link to Zendala #44 templates

I chose this template because it is so different from what we have been doing for the past few weeks.  I like the simplicity of it and the challenge of the straight lines.

Tangles: Tink, Amaze, Paradox, Fang

I was surprised with how much depth I was able to achieve with this template.  I feel like all the tangles worked really well in the spaces I used and I especially like the "new to me" tangle Fang.  It's kind of an optical illusion and so easy to do!

I hope you all have a great week and don't
