It’s difficult to believe that it’s been so long since I last posted. Suffice it to say that life has been hectic for me recently. Back in September I rejoined the labor force (after being a stay-at-home mom for a good while). I got a part-time job as an Administrative Assistant at a childcare center, and I am really enjoying it. In addition, I am also going to be an assistant art teacher with a local art studio. So happy!
So, back to posting about my latest artistic endeavors. A good place to start is with tangling. This week the Diva’s challenge is to create a Valentangle. I’m a little late, but I have four valentangles (all monotangles) to share.
The first one features Heartswell by Helen Williams of A Little Lime. The step-outs are here. This tile was created as a gift for a coworker.
The second one is Cross-Ur-Heart, deconstructed by Jenna Black. You can find the step-outs here. This radial pattern can also be thought of as a zendala. I like the feeling of depth which results from the shading and the radiating lines. This tile was also made as a gift.
The third tile is a Heartsmeet monotangle. This heart-y grid pattern is by Lynn Hensley, and the step-outs are available here. Let’s just say that I was on a heart-themed tangling roll which continued on with the fourth tile.
And lastly I did another “hearts-in-a-grid tangle” featuring Heartfully, also by Helen Williams.
Hope everyone had a lovely Valentine’s Day!
Thank you for visiting.
Welcome back! I think it’s a good thing to have a job again after being a staying at home mom for some time. I did the same (years ago) and never regretted staying home, but enjoyed working for money after that a lot.
Your tiles are lovely!!!
Thanks Annemarie, it’s good to be back! Like you, I don’t regret staying home while my kids needed me, but now it is good to be working and making some money. 🙂 Thanks, I’m glad that you like my tiles. 😀
Love your tiles!!!
Thank you Gudrun!
I like the monotiles, they are drawn with care and look wonderful and I wish you succes with your new future!!!
Thanks so much, Ria!
