Turning Old into New, Diva #195
This week's Diva Challenge is a bit of a fun one!
And the old becomes new.
Take a favorite tangle, one I use all the time,
and make it new.
Change it up.
Change the structure.
Kind of reminds me of a Bible verse :).
Romans 12:2 actually.
Be not conformed to this world:
but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind,
that ye may prove what is that good,
and acceptable, and perfect
will of God.
The Diva Challenge was fun this week.
I took popsicles and urchin -
which are normally fill patterns for me -
and turned them into a gridlock spectacular!
Hahaha!
I plan to do more of this kind of drawing.
Heading out of town soon for a few days.
I hear Disney World calling my name.
I like to go sit in a hotel room and draw for a few days,
depending on theme park food to keep me alive.
And ice cream.
And jelly bellies if I get to Downtown Disney.
It's a tough life,
but someone's gotta do it!
I loooove popsicles... I made a flower out of it today, but it wasn't nearly as cool as this! love, love, love this tile!
ReplyDeletethis was a great challenge idea, sandy! going to do some more with it this afternoon :)

ReplyDeleteVery nice! I don't think I know either tangle so I'll have to check 'me out.
ReplyDeleteurchin is sandy bartholomew's - in one of her books, don't recall which one. sorry.
Deletepopsicles is michele beauchamp's - i think it's on tangle patterns
Bold and Beautiful! Love these tangles in a grid!
ReplyDeleteGreat job. You got them in a grid but looks like they are straining to get out. Was that influenced by your wanting to go to sleep or being anxious to set out for Disney?
ReplyDeletehahahaha! probably both :)
DeleteLooks great, Alice! Particularly love how cushion-y popsicles looks :) Have a great break!
ReplyDeletethanks, helen, these are definitely 2 of my go-to patterns. and disney was awesome!
DeleteLike what you have done with these...I need to learn more about what they usually look like, but they certainly look very cozy in that grid! hahaha...enjoy the vacation, although I'm sure you don't need the encouragement to do so!
