March.. in like a lion...

Well March came in like a lion.. nasty winds.. blowing snow and -37c with that wind chill.. so it can only get better right???? lol
I start my new part time job today.. am excited but nervous.. it's been awhile.. but am looking forward to it.. it will be 2-3 days a week., so someone is going to have to get abit organized here.. lol which isn't a bad thing I have always found I work better with a schedule.
Anyways.. I have learned 2 actual Tangle patterns.. the challenge at I am the Diva is to use only one tangle pattern. so with the site that Blue Bird told me about I found some. Now this first one Facets.. is a little wonky.. and not totally true as I didn't get it at first.. but I like it anyways... the second one is called Bales and I love it too and can see doing alot more with both of them.
I have been finishing up things that I started for sales in the fall.. and didn't get finished.. here's one of the strainers that I finished off...I see now that the picture is crooked..lol
and I finished off my swap cards for March and they are ready to mail today.. I love St. Patrick's Day!! I get presents..lol nothing too exciting but cute I think...
Anyways..I know that there was something else I was going to say but can't remember but I should get busy and get ready for work.. hope everyone has a lovely day! Thanks for stopping by...

    Gee, do you think you were channeling St. Patrick's Day when the stylized Bales and green were used for your second Monotangle? LOL

    The colors really make this art stand out. Subtle, yet powerful.

    I guess that's a good job for you, then, Kathy! :D Yes, I can imagine how a strainer might be challenging to paint! ;)

    Have a great day!

    Hugs,
