Relay for Life Template No. 3.  I used a splash background with acrylic inks then added Zebra tanglation, beads, leaves, petals, etc.
Relay For Life Template No. 4.  The background is dabbed on stamp pads.  I started in the cener and made some triangles and then it looked like watermellon so I added some seeds and kept the seed theme throughout.  Some of the leaves I used Afterglow and Knightsbridge is behind the leaves.
The background is dabbed on stamp pads.  The tangles are Steampunk Series Geer # One, Geer # 3,  Background # 6, Thoofen.
This is a Relay for Life Template No. 5.  I used a splash background that I had done with liquid acrylic inks and added some table salt to for texture.  The tangles I used :  Fern, Puff.

 Diva Weekly Challenge No. 84 "String Theory v.  XI: Blind-Sighted".  I put the dots on the corners and drew in the borders then I shut my eyes.  I felt my way around the tile edges and then in my 'mind's eye' drew a string.  Thoofen and Diamond drops were drawn on the string.  I then filled in the background with Pais and coloured Pais with pencil crayons and coloured Diamond drops with a Tombow marker.

 Zendala Dare No. 20.   I started with a splash background with a stamp pad.  I used Vortex, Zebra and Verve and then went back into the Zentangle with ink from the stamp pad and my blender pen.  The background technique is from the internet.  You smear some stamp pad ink (they used distress ink) onto plastic, spray it with water then dab your paper onto that.  You then dry the paper with a hair dryer and when the paper is dry you dab the paper back into the ink and then let it dry naturally.  You get a two-toned effect.  It didn't work as well with regular stamp pads as it did with the distress inkpad.  This one was done with a regular stamp pad.
