Monochromatic Makes

Well Hello all. Couldn't sleep Again so I thought I'd use the time to catch up on my blog instead of recounting the huge flock of sheep I've spent the last week or so counting!!! lol.
I really like working in black n white at the moment and I made my latest card using the new love of my life - zentangle - well sort of - my version of it anyway!!!

My image is a Make it crafty digistamp called girl with locks. I love her - she's soooo sweet. The background was created using black distress ink and a splodgeaway mask. The ticket sentiment is from Kanban and the ribbon is from Debbi Moore. A bit of stickles finished it off.

A closer look at my image. I coloured her hair and skin with promarkers and 'tangled' her clothes and hair ribbon. As I'm only just starting out on the zentangle road they are only very simple tangles but I really enjoyed doing it - soooo relaxing- and they do look quite effective! I got so engrossed the time flew by. I was in a little world all of my own lol.


Sticking with the monochromatic theme my daughter informed me that my gorjus grandson, Kian, has grown out of all the jackets n cardis I crocheted him when he was born n asked me to get my hook out again. I bought this gorjus pattern off etsy and got cracking.I really enjoyed creating it as it was worked in 1 piece from the neck down and was interesting. Really pleased with how it's turned out n am now doing a beige n cream one the same !!!

Anyway I'm off to see if I can get some sleep! Thanx for stopping by n I would really appreciate any  feedback if you've got time.  Bye for now. Hugz, Jayne xxxxx
