The Tangletastic Challenge Wk 26 | Zentangle - Black & White Bliss - Shadows


Tangletastic Challenge cover image

Hello, Tanglers! 🎉


It's Week 26 of the Tangletastic Challenge✨


This week, we're going back to classic black and white tangling, and working with shadows.


Here's how it works - Try a simple pattern with deeper shading.


Pick an easy tangle such as Hollibaugh, Flux, or Crescent Moon and focus on layering shadows rather than adding complexity.


Here's what Chris (Govan) and Pauline (Herbert) created:

I got to play this week too, and ended up teaching my tile as a workshop for a local group of lovely ladies.

Over to you!


Remember, the Tangletastic Challenge isn't a 'challenge' per se. It's meant to be a fun tangling 'challenge' to help you tangle more, so don't overthink it. It's all about playing. Your tiles can be as simple as a 2" x 2" square.


Once you've created your tile, please share it in the Tangletastic group and then add it to the relevant album in the group (our Tangle Gallery)


I can’t wait to see your tiles sparkle in the Tangle Gallery! 🌀👑


✨ Remember to stick to 'The Rules' ✨


  1. Tangle to the weekly prompt.

  2. Share your creation in my Tangletastic Facebook Group, and in the Tangle Gallery under the relevant prompt.

  3. Share it on Instagram using #TangletasticChallenge and #Ruby2Shoes, and remember to tag me @ruby2shoesdesign. 📸💖 Sharing on Facebook works too! 🌀👑 Link to my Tangletastic group - http://bit.ly/Tangletastic

  4. 💬 Share the Love: Comment on at least three other posts each week. This isn’t a competition. Every tangle is magical! See someone’s post without a comment? Please leave a little sparkle for them.


🌟 NB. While I’ll be cheering you all on, I won’t be commenting on every single post personally: The magic of this challenge is in us supporting one another as a community. 💖 I've been trying to keep up, but I know I've still missed a few people, so the more it grows, the harder it will be.


💌 Don't know what this is all about?! Full details here.


Come and join my Tangletastic group so you can join in.


Let’s do this together! 🎉👠✨


PS. I’d love to keep in touch. Pop your email here for pattern ideas, creative prompts, tiny mindset shifts, workshop updates and the occasional step-by-step tangle you can draw straight away.


PPS. Did you know ... I've written a book!! It's a fabulous little book you can pop in your bag, ready to tangle at a moment's notice. Check it out here.
