A couple of challenging challenges

    Well, one challenging challenge.  The zen button was loads of fun.  I went on a search for tangle fragments and chose to do my button with those and not "real" tangles.  Or at least tangles with names.  I do wish I could get the shading on my zen buttons as gorgeous as others I have seen.  I need to do another one and see if I can make it "glow" like the ones I like so much.  Practice makes perfect (or at least pretty good).  So here is button attempt #1.

      Took a few minutes to do attempt #2.   Still not happy with the shading.  Aarghh!  I do like the green and I am happy with the tangles I used, I just can't make it look glossy on top.  Okay, lay it aside for now and then try later this week.  I need to find my white charcoal pencil around here somewhere!  You haven't seen it, have you? I have looked everywhere.

      This second challenge from Rainbow Elephant was challenging.  The tangle pozi gave me royal fit!  But I tried.  My flowers, flormoeba, weren't too terrible.

      One more that I just finished but not connected to a challenge.  I just got my set of Color It water brush pens and am trying to "conquer" blending.  This was my best turn out, at least I think so.  Maybe it was the paper . . .  either way it inspired me to grab an Amazon lightning deal on Arrteza water brush pens.  I had been eyeing them for some time but could not decide.  It has 96 colors - oh goodie. 

      Alas I am finished.  Thanks for dropping by and checking out these attempts.  Hugs!
