Diva's Challenge #34

This week's challenge is "Opposites Attract". If we use a curved string then we are challenged to complete the Zentangle with angular or grid tangles but if we use a straight line string we are to use only the curved, orb or the softer tangles. Initially I thought this would be easy but as I started my first tile I got absorbed only to realise that I had used a grid based tangle in my straight lined string......oh well ... so I finished it and started over..
The next time I was concentrating on which tangle I was about to use as the tile progressed. Generally I let the tile dictate which tangle I use but this time I had to stop and ask did the tangle fit in this challenge...if not look for one that did .

I have now finished two tiles; a curved and straight line strings.  I must admit that this challenge prompted me to look at and use some tangles that I hadn't tried as yet, which is always good when you are only a beginner. I am happy with my finished tiles...I hope you enjoy them too.
