Zentangle Inspired Spiral Circle Pull Card

Good morning friends

Today's share is something a little different. I first learned of Zentangle when we were on a road trip last month. I was hooked immediately. (For more information on the art of Zentangle, click HERE).

I really wanted to try to incorporate Zentangle into a card, so cut an official Zentangle tile (beautiful stuff) into a circle before I started the pen work. Then I attached it to a black Spiral Circle Pull Card.

My friend Sue and I live in different cities, and we often pop something in the mail to each other on the first of each month.  I knew she would appreciate the work that went into drawing the tile, so I embellished the card front a little and decided to give it to her.

I used one of Karen Burniston's embossing folders on the left, and drew lines a white narrow rectangle for the right side.

Inside I tangled the borders on each of the circles and stamped a greeting.

I had the opportunity to hand deliver the card to her as we were passing through her city on our Road Trip, and it turns out she had also been interested in starting with Zentangle. So she REALLY appreciated the card, which made me feel good.
