Diva Challenge #114: Stars

This week's Diva Challenge is to be inspired by stars, whatever that means to you.  Laura posted some really pretty stars on her blog with a variety of different number of sides.  I thought about using one of those as a template to complete this challenge, but then I thought about how making a true tile with the zentangle method has nothing to do with rulers, or templates, etc.. When I think of stars, Auraknot comes to mind, but I wanted to do something a little different, so Auraknot meets Diva Dance for my star, with a little bit of Tipple and Black Pearls around the outside

I hope you are enjoying a wonderful spring day (or fall day if you are in the southern hemisphere).  Here in Loveland, CO it has been snowing off and on for 3 days.  We have approximately 14 inches now, and it is still snowing.  We are in the midst of a terrible drought, so any moisture is welcome, even if it is all at once.  I really enjoy these spring snow storms, since I am retired and do not have to travel to work any longer.   It also helps knowing that it will probably be gone just as quickly as it came and spring will be right around the corner. Until then, I will sit an gaze out the window with my tea cup in hand... in between my tangling that is!

  1. I immediately thought of Auraknot too! I really like it combined with Diva Dance. Very nice. And I can sympathize with the snow; we're in a similar situation although the past two or three days it's been melting a lot.

  2. I LOVE your Auraknot/Diva Dance star. It's very beautiful.
    The intouched snow looks beautiful too. And I know the feeling of not having to go to work anymore.

  3. Like your "Dancing Auraknot". The depth created by your drawing is great. At this time of year not as big a fan of the snow.
