Diamond challenge - and NEW CLASS!
I didn't get to this challenge until late last night. Just in time! It's been a busy week. I decided to do a random n'zeppel around the logo and the fill it with a variety of tangles. A blue Micron pen and blue colored pencil fit the bill too!
This challenge uses the logo for the The Four Diamonds Fund which was started by Charles and Irma Millard after their son, Christopher, lost his 3 year battle with cancer in 1972. Symbolic of the traits Christopher felt were needed to defeat cancer, he wrote a story in which the knight Sir Millard overcomes obstacles to achieve the four diamonds of Courage, Wisdom, Honesty and Strength.
New class scheduled! I'm happy to announce that a new class has been set up. Banbury Fair (my favorite little shop) will be hosting. It is designed for those students who have already taken a Basics class. This class is called 'Tangling Techniques' - COLOR. It will include more tangles - of course - and go in depth on the many ways you can add color to a zentangle.
Contact Banbury to register.
