Biggify challenge



The newest challenge from 'the Diva' asks us to use our tangle patterns in a different way. Instead of drawing multiple intricate patterns as I normally love to do, we were asked to make our tangle patterns as big as possible on the same size paper as we normally use.

So these tiles are my normal 3 1/2 " squares of paper. The tangles in the top tile are hollibaugh, crescent moon, and eke. The lower tile uses pokeleaf and shattuck. I'm not sure these tiles are totally successful to my eye but they are a good exercise and I'm glad I tried it.

    Love the top one! It looks as if you've sliced through the paper and slipped patterns underneath. Lovely!

    The biggify really gives a whole new look to your tangles and the shading adds so much. Very graphic and effective.
