I am the Diva - Challenge #71

This week yet another great challenge from Laura at http://iamthedivaczt.blogspot.co.uk/

I found using Pea-nuckle really difficult. I can not do it in a way tht flows easily and it's not relaxing to use for me. I have to concentrate too hard on getting it right. I am too much of a perfectionist. I went for a tangelation and made it stripey, to match my favoutite tangle pattern which sneaks in again!
I don't think I will be using pea-nuckle again, but it was good to try it out.

  1. When I first opened your tile my initial thought was "oh, how
    'Precise"! Your clean lines are amazing and the detail is impressive in its delicate touch!

  3. I'm a fan of the black and white stripey tangles too and I love how you get the touch of 'shine' on the leaves.

  4. I love your tile and combination of tangles. And, I think your Pea-nuckle turned out great! I had a really hard time with it, too, but the more I did it the more I liked it. I plan to keep at it. LOL I hope maybe you will, too, because you certainly can do it well.

  9. Fiona, this is so well done! I envy you your perfect (in my eyes) pea-nuckle. Hide it for a few days and then have a look at it. You will be proud of yourself. Try it and see...

  10. It kind of looks like a metal support for your plants you have there, and I hope that snake doesn't knock it down!(My weird imagination!" I love the sheen on the leaves. Really nice!

  16. I love this tile! Your pea-nuckle looks really great, even if it was difficult. I'm not sure tangling has to be easy or relaxing to "work". Sometimes that intense concentration produces a different kind of zen. At any rate, your tile is very stylish and classy looking.

  17. I think your pea=nuckle is really striking with the stripes. I too did not find this "relaxing"; but I keep persevering, hoping I'll "get it", soon. I love the tangles you chose to go with it too.

  18. This is gorgeous. I really like the way you striped the pea-nuckle, and your choice of other tangles, and the way you shaded them, adds great depth to this tile. Congratulations on a job well done.
