The Diva's Weekly Challenge #268: Ellish

Urbandictionary.com defines "ellish" as "a word used in the northeast for "great / cool / good". News to me! And also the newest tangle from the ZT mothership, as well as the focus of this week's Diva challenge. I wasn't particularly "drawn" to this tangle, but once I got started, I had an ellish time! I did leave off the bottom loop, which made it more 8ish, and even flipped one around for fun.

Thanks for visiting! See you next week!

PS: A second ellish! (It's starting to grow on me!!) This was done on Elephant Poop Paper. I love the feel of the microns on it. It's quite rough and very absorbent. Graphite doesn't really work on it, so I used some cross hatching and rounding for shading.

    Gorgeous, that's the only word I can find for your tile. I want to say that I like what you wrote in 'about me': trying to make the world a little bit better than I found it. Let's all try to do that!!!!!

    What a beautiful Ellish tangelation, dear Jennifer!
    I am happy that you are back on your blog, I already missed you!
    I read that you had nice holidays in France - this is so beautiful there...
    I have been in Monets Garden last summer and it was so phantastic to see all the flowers. Your post reminded me to that and I took a look at the fotos again. Thank you!
