Today's Tangle - Casella

"Casella" is by Conny Holsappel and her step-out is posted HERE on Mariët Lustenhouwer's blog.

Honeycomb Khala Video Class

I enjoyed yesterday's tile so much that I drew another "Honeycomb Khala".

I drew this tile by following the "Honeycomb Khala" video class by Romi Marks on YouTube. You can watch her video HERE. I drew this on a 3.5 x 3.5-inch cream color tile with the corners cropped to make an octagon.

Honeycomb Khala Video Class

I drew today's tile by following the "Honeycomb Khala" video class by Romi Marks on YouTube. You can watch her video HERE.

I drew this on a 3.5 x 3.5-inch cream color tile with the corners cropped to make an octagon. Romi draws hers on a hexagon tile that is a little larger. As you can see, it works just as well with eight spokes/petals as it does with six. I simply had to tweak some of the decorations to fit inside the smaller spaces.

Opally Star Video Class

I drew today's tile by following the "Opally Star" video class by Romi Marks on YouTube. You can watch her video HERE. I drew this on a 3.5 x 3.5 inch kraft paper tile. While I'm pretty happy with how this turned out, it was a nightmare trying to get my white gel pen to cooperate. After doing the coloring, I had to re-trace all of the white lines because the colored pencils had scraped off much of the white ink. It was also quite a challenge drawing the white highlights because the colored pencil resisted the ink so much. I love the look of white ink on dark tiles but I'm not sure if it's worth the frustration involved. By the way, I used the same kind of white gel pen that Romi uses in the video.
