Meghan @firebonnet has a brand new, fun challenge. It’s all about putting your creative juices to work. The only part your camera/iphone/smartphone has in this is to document something you’ve created by hand. Its’ called – wait for it – #happyhandscreate. LOVE IT! I posted on Instagram (gemma013) but I thought it would be fun to put it out here as well. I’m going to try to get the most outta myself. Thanks for the push, Meghan.
Check out her blog and get in on the action.
Here’s my first entry. I am new at this Zentangling thing, so if you are a pro, or have any tips, please feel free to (kindly) help out. I am all ears (and a little bit eyes, nose, and mouth.) 😉
THANKS FOR STOPPING BY
🙂
Good morning. Lovely Zentangling thing! (I have to google tofind out what it is 😉 You have talent! Helen
Ha! Thanks, Helen but once you see the pros you’ll realize I am a novice. 🙂
Such a wonderful first attempt. I adore zentagle-ing. 🙂
Kind words! Wahoo! Thanks, Cee.
#happyhandscreate So much fun. I may join in eventually with something that requires way less talent. Love your spiderweb. The spiders that live in my apartment could learn a thing or two…
You should see the one outside our front door. Spider that is. Can you say Buick?!
Thanks, G. ❤️
Spiders. Must. Die.
Think he’d fit in my web? 😱

You have such talent Gemma. Great Zentangling! Love it! 😀
Thanks, Sonel. I’m trying. 😉
I love it!
Thanks!!!
Very impressive Gemma. I never heard of Zentangling before, but it looks like fun. 🙂
Thanks, ad. Check it out. Such fun!

Good stuff, I like what you’ve done, ATP. Didn’t know you’re on Instagram but then don’t know what Instagram is, and I love the “I’m all ears …” thing. ATP xxx
More social media, like I need to fill my time with more of this stuff. Ugh!
Thanks, bud. I’m all heart too. ❤️❤️❤️ LOL
I know you are! I’ve thought about other social media, but my blog my Blurb work keeps me busy enough – I jealously guard time to take and make photographs! xxx
As you should. If I was good at any one thing I would probably stick to that too. xxx
This is really cool! I bet it helps with stress relief too! I might have to try it. Thanks for sharing this!
Thanks, Sue. One of the points of this, as I understand it, is not to stress. There are no mistakes. (Do they know me?) ugh!
Yeah I saw that. As someone who likes to edit while I am trying to create, I feel your pain! But maybe it would be a good lesson for us to learn to let go of that. Now I definitely want to try it!!
Keep me posted 😉
Love your art – and the photo of the spider just added to it – have a great week – 🙂
Thanks, Y.Prior 🙂 (Yvette?) I always wanted to be an artist of some sort-drawing, photography, writing… Never really mastered anything but I’m having fun. You have a super weekend, too. Be seeing you…
Now where did I see something about Tangling? No, I’m clueless! Some kind of doodling? I shall follow your link. Your crazy ‘October’ made me smile because I’d just come from your Halloween pastels. Spooky! 🙂 🙂 Glad you can find a little time to play, Gem.
I really miss blogging more but… 😦
I think you might have seen another of mine maybe. Maybe not. Such fun and relaxing. Keep smiling. 😄
Oh Lor’, I’ve looked! The world isn’t ready for my variation on this, Gem 🙂 Happy tangling!
🙂
