We are a puzzle loving family. What a great stocking stuffer or place card for the table. Mmmmm ideas beginning to spin in my head with the sugar plums.
I have been sitting just looking at these ATCs & how they fit together. The shadowing of the 'Z' just brings it alive & I love your use of the sepia with the black, white & grey. Paula (PEP)
I love puzzles! I think I'll plan a Zentangle Christmas party, send everyone a puzzle piece to complete and bring to the party, then raffle the completed puzzle with all $ proceeds going to a local charity. Merry Christmas everyone!!
I. Have always wanted to do a puzzle set either by myself or with other tanglers but I haven't ever had tiles or anyone else close to me who tangles! I will have to do it on my own.
Love the puzzle idea, and all 4 days so far are so fun!
