Today, I took Eni Oken's Art Raffle app for a spin. This tile is the result! For my first tile in eons, it’s not bad! If you tangle, you should get this FREE app, it’s lots of fun!

For the first project in the new Zentangle Project pack for grey tiles, we are creating a small, rearrangeable puzzle of four Bijou tiles, all with the same tangles. These can be assembled into your own mosaic and arranged in different designs depending on how you place each little tile. This is my first tile. I got carried away with the Diva Dance, on the second side, so I will be redoing this.
This is my first Zentangle created on a new grey Zentangle tile. This new color was just released by the company this week. The color is a soft, light grey, that looks good with the entire range of Zentangle tools. I love having a grey tile because it allows me to add both shading and highlights for a full range of values. Right now, you can get the tiles in various sizes from your local CZT.
I decided to give dingsplatZ a try this weekend. It was fun to do this on the fawn colored paper. It allowed me to add both highlights and shadows!

Finally, a gold and maroon tile from Eni Oken's Crazy Gold Auraknot lesson. While I liked the idea of this, it turned out harder to do than it looked. I found that the widest marking gold pen that I had was kind of sketchy when used to fill in the solid ribbons. On the other hand, I found one with a very fine line that I liked along for creating the patterned details.
Another tile from Eni Oken's Crazy Gold Auraknot lesson! I am making progress with the lesson. Here, I’ve added the designs to the stripes of the tangle. I stuck with the black and white because I just wanted to get a feel for how to do it. I’ll finally be using metallic ink on the next one!

Button, button. Amanda has jumped on the Zenbutton band wagon! She’s done a few others, but this one is one of my favorites so far. I really wanted to share it with everyone so you could see more things that can be done with fragments. In just a couple more weeks, Amanda and I will be heading to Rhode Island for CZT 30. We’re so excited, and we hope to learn lots to share with all of you here, when we come back. While we are gone, make sure you follow us on Facebook (there’s a link over there on the top, right side of this page!) We will be posting pics of our adventures for you!
