Don't know what to call this post / Не знаю, как назвать этот пост

This week, I am the Diva challenge is a duotangle, where you can use only two specified tangles. This time they are: Cirquital and Opus. This evening I spotted a piece of paper with my husband's calligraphy on it. Last year we were working on a housewarming card and this is one the remaining scraps. I don't particularly hate my job, but today I had one-of-those-days. And when I saw the words "New Address", I really, really wanted to be in a different workplace....  just for a bit. Also, next month, work is moving into new premises, making it a bit closer to home and promoting increased working-from-home hours. And that's a good thing. So here's to my new address.

На этой неделе I am the Diva challenge предлагает задание дуотенгл, в котором можно использовать два орнамента, на этот раз - Cirquital и Opus. Сегодня вечером я нашла кусок бумаги с каллиграфией моего мужа. В прошлом году мы готовили открытку к новоселью и это один из остатков. Не могу сказать, что ненавижу свою работу, но сегодня у меня был один-из-этих-дней. И, когда я увидела слова "Новый Адрес", я очень, очень захотела побыть на другом рабочем месте.... только на чуть-чуть. Также, в будущем месяце, работа переезжает в новое здание, ближе к дому и сильнее начнут поощрять работу из дому. А это хорошо. За мой новый адрес.

  • Sakura Pigma micron black & sepia
  • White and flesh pastel pencils
  • Graphite pencil
  • Canson mi teints brown(ish) pastel paper


I also wanted to show off again some tangled quilling I did. Each strip has been tangled on both sides and I attempted to quill some zentangle patterns.






And this is another piece with quilling/zentagle combination:

    WOW love your challenge piece.
    quilling is beyond me, but I love to look at it-and tangling the strips, adds another dimension to the piece

    Really like your challenge tile. The quilling pieces look great. They seem labor intensive.

      Thank you so much for your comment! Absolutely, in complete opposition to zentangle, quilling is full on work. But I am in love with them both just the same.

      This is an amazingly nice, positive comment - thank you! I don't feel glamorous or soft at all, I just love doing it.
      Go Saints! - that team's logo is just asking to be tangled.
