Diva's Challenge #174 Superimposing Strings

Laura, the Diva, is recouperating from the CZT Seminar and Chewie's 6th birthday (can you believe it? Chewie's 6th birthday!) Happy belated Birthday Chewie. And Artoo's a bit under the weather,  so CZT Aimee Belair is filling in this week.
Your mission this time is to place a string on top of another string for your Zentangle tile.

I used 2 different versions of my initial
 superimposed one on top of the other upside down.
 This was the result:
 I'm quite happy with it, but I decided to try another one in color, and since my color is Purple, here it is:
 I used a purple Sakura Micron 01 for the outline, white Sakura Gelly Roll for accent, and Prismacolor pencils in Lilac and Parma Violet for shading; on purple card stock.

Be sure to visit the Diva's site to see the other wonderful entries; it's amazing how different all the responses are. Maybe you'll be inspired to try out one of the Challenges yourself.

Thanks for visiting; please leave a comment, favorable or not. I'd love to hear your thoughts. That's how we learn and grow; and how we know someone out there is paying attention.

Have a wonderful day; see you all next time.

  1. I like them both but because I too love purple, I especially like the purple one. I like all the space you leave around your tangle.

    1. Thanks for your comment, Kia. Glad you like the purple one. This one just felt finished as is; anything added would have seemed cluttered and detracted from the main tangles.

    1. Thanks for stopping by, Jean. Yes, I did have fun with this one! I may even try another.I haven't had much chance to check out everyone else's tiles these last few weeks, but I hope to rectify that in the future.
