Ornaments

Now that Christmas is over I'm trying to get my house back in order. For a procrastinator like me, that's not easy. I was looking at the tree last night, thinking about when I wanted to get started on taking it down. (Probably not soon!) So I thought today might be a good day to show you a tile I did last week that I call 'Ornaments'. It's not complicated and was fun to use it as a sampler to put different tangle patterns in each ball. I used a lot of stippling (many small dots) to do the shading between the balls and around the holly leaves. Stippling takes quite a bit of time but I do love the way it looks!
