B+ve

The world awaits every Monday,
As the Diva keeps the blues away,
A life not a bed of rose,
But with a grin she keeps you on your toes,
No challenges keeps her away,
Laura's a millionaire in every way.




And a new tangle B+ve  :)
Enjoy and have a great week!!

Michami Dukkadam

On the last day of Paryushan Mahaparva 
If I have-

In my thoughts,

In my deeds,

In my actions,

knowingly or unknowingly,

intentionally or un intentionally,

have caused you hurt or pain

I ask you for your forgiveness.

As we come to an end of Paryushan, after the Samavatsari Pratikraman, as we ask for forgiveness, it dawned to me that yes we do ask for forgiveness and yes we forgive others too but I realized that I have to learn to forgive myself first for all the broken promises, for doubting, for criticizing, for abusing, for hurting, not looking after the self...If I can do that the rest will be easy...

Reflection of my mind

This weeks challenge at Divas is to create ZIA using Beamz by Tracy Frogley.
The tangle is simple and easy to create but the expectation from one self to do more with this tangle lead to lot of chaos in my mind.



Have a great week....

Rise above

This weeks challenge at Divas was to create a tile using bales with the non-dominant hand. It's not one of my best work but, yes it did get better by the end of it. After drawing the string with the left hand i realized that drawing the lines wasn't that challenging as much as tangling the bales. I found that my concentration was even more profound and even though the end result wasn't so great and the shading was - well no words to describe, there was more peace and calmness. Hmmmm something for me to reflect on.
Hope you guys have a great weekend. Enjoy!!

Baby steps

I have been wanting to make and start an art journal since a very long time, and well this weekend I finally got around it. After trying to bind the journal endless time (to be more precise 8 times) I finally got the Coptic binding right :) and this is the thought that came to me when I finally tied the last knot...
"No task is difficult until you decide it is" and well that's the start of my journal



This weeks challenge also lead to another entry in the journal...while practicing Quandary I found the rice(?) floating and this is where it landed.....


Thank you for stopping by and have a great week

Moebius Syndrome Awareness

This weeks challenge at Diva's is to create awareness on the Moebius Syndrome  which affects primarily the 6th and 7th cranial nerves, but can affect any of the 12 cranial nerves. Delayed developmental milestones, low muscle tone, club foot, low immunity system are some of the disorders that the syndrome brings
Moebius Syndrome Awareness day is Thursday 24th.

Little Artoos has this rare syndrome and the extended Zentangle family unites to spread awareness about this syndrome through their tiles. Drop in at Divas blog to see everyone's beautiful tiles.

The colour which reflects this group is purple..so here is my take on this weeks challenge.





"Thank you" all for your help, suggestions and support on shading for last weeks challenge...

Happy Uttarayan

14th Jan marks the entry of the sun from one zodiac to another and daylight hours increases from this day. As the wind changes direction, its festival time here in India. 

Different cultures celebrates this festival in different way and various cultures it is called  "Makar Shankranti , Lahori, Pongal, Bhogi or Uttarayan"

It marks the end of harvest for pulses, sugarcane, paddy and other cereals. Newly harvested grains are cooked for the first time. Its celebration time for the farmers.

At home we make "chikki" with  sesame seeds, jaggery and peanuts and in the evening fly kite. 

This weeks challenge @ yours truly is to use DuoTangle Auraknot and Bunzo. Love both the tangle but when I put just them together they flamed......
I went through couple of tiles till they soared together but shading them ...a big challenge!!








Any tips on how I could have improved the shading will be welcome..."Thanks" in advance.  Hope you guys have a great week and thanks for stopping by.
